Criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:
- Plasma HIV-1 RNA levels <50 copies/mL at screening
- Pre-ART Plasma HIV-1 RNA set point between 50 and ≤ 5,000 copies/mL measured within two years prior to ART initiation
- On ART for ≥ 6 months prior to screening
- Documented plasma HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL for ≥ 6 months preceding the screening visit (or undetectable HIV-1 RNA level according to the local assay being used if the limit of detection is ≥ 50 copies/mL). Unconfirmed virologic elevations of ≥ 50 copies/mL (transient detectable viremia, or "blip") prior to screening are acceptable.
- No documented history of resistance to any components of the current ART regimen
- Availability of a fully active alternative ART regimen, in the opinion of the Investigator, in the event of discontinuation of the current ART regimen with development of resistance.
- Hemoglobin ≥ 11.5 g/dL (males) or ≥ 11 g/dL (females)
- White Blood Cells ≥ 2,500 cells/μL
- Platelets ≥ 125,000/mL
- Absolute Neutrophil Counts ≥ 1000 cells/μL
- CD4+ count ≥ 500 cells/μL
- Alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or bilirubin ≤ 2 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
- Estimated glomerular filtration rate ≥ 60 mL/min
- No autoimmune disease requiring on-going immunosuppression
- No evidence of current hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection
- No evidence of current hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection (positive anti-HCV antibody and negative HCV polymerase chain reaction (PCR) results are acceptable)
- No documented history of pre-ART CD4 nadir < 200 cells/μL (unknown pre-ART CD4 nadir is acceptable)
