Current Primary Outcome Measures (submitted: April 15, 2016)

Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 48 [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]

The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the prespecified time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.

• Original Primary Outcome Measures (submitted: April 20, 2010): The primary efficacy endpoint is the proportion of subjects that achieve HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 48 [ Time Frame: 48 Weeks ]

• Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 144 [ Time Frame: Week 144 ]
  The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 144 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm.
• Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL at Week 192 [ Time Frame: Week 192 ]
  The percentage of participants with HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at Week 192 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm.

• Official Title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of GS-9350-boosted Atazanavir Versus Ritonavir-boosted Atazanavir Each Administered With Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate in HIV-1 Infected, Antiretroviral Treatment-Naive Adults

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a regimen containing cobicistat-boosted atazanavir (ATV+COBI) plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Truvada®; FTC/TDF) fixed-dose combination (FDC) versus ritonavir-boosted atazanavir (ATV+RTV) plus FTC/TDF FDC in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral treatment-naive adults.

Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio. Randomization will be stratified by HIV-1 RNA level (≤ 100,000 copies/mL or > 100,000 copies/mL) at screening.
