What this trial is about
This is a phase 4, randomized, controlled, open-label, single-center clinical trial conducted at the Hospital de Infectología, National Medical Center "La Raza." The study employs a non-inferiority design with follow-up assessments at 24 and 48 weeks. The study will enroll 156 PLWH aged ≥18 years who are on ART with BIC/FTC/TAF or DTG/3TC/ABC and have maintained virological suppression (HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL) for at least 48 weeks. Participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio: 104 to switch to DTG/3TC and 52 to continue their current regimen (control group).
