Brief Summary:
This is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, open clinical trial. The trial will be carried out in five provinces in China. Pregnant women with HIV infection and at high risk of mother-to-child transmission of HIV will be identified. Their newborn babies who are at high risk HIV infection will be recruited and randomized into intervention and control groups. Children in intervention groups will receive ART and intensive HIV testing after birth. Children in control group will receive routine prevention of mother-to-child transmission services. All the included children will be followed up and their development and infection status will be recorded and compared.

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: Intervention group
Children will receive antiretroviral treatment (ART) until 6 weeks old after birth. For the first two weeks, Zidovudine (AZT), Lamivudine (3TC) and Nevirapine (NVP) will be used. When the child is 2 weeks old, the regimen will be adjusted and Nevirapine (NVP) will be replaced by Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r). Early infant diagnosis and other relevant testing will be performed to monitor children's HIV infection status. If the child is not infected, ART will be stopped when he/she reaches 6 weeks old. Otherwise, the treatment will be continued.
Drug: Zidovudine
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: AZT

Drug: Nevirapine
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: NVP

Drug: Lamivudine
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: 3TC

Drug: Lopinavir/ritonavir
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: LPV/r

Active Comparator: Control group
Children will receive routine prevention of mother-to-child transmission of HIV services. Nevirapine (NVP) or Zidovudine (AZT) will be administrated to them until 6 weeks old after birth. Early infant diagnosis services will be provided when the child is 6 weeks old and repeated when 3 months old. Children with HIV infection will be referred to receive routine HIV infection treatment.
Drug: Zidovudine
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: AZT

Drug: Nevirapine
Dose will be adjusted according to the child's weight.
Other Name: NVP
