Description

Primary objective: To characterize viral suppression rates (proportion of patients with suppressed viral load) at week 24 in the BIC arm Secondary objectives: To characterize viral suppression rates at weeks 12, 24 and 48 in the standard of care treatment (SOC) arm (currently, TDF 300mg/3TC 300mg/DT...

Primary objective: To characterize viral suppression rates (proportion of patients with suppressed viral load) at week 24 in the BIC arm Secondary objectives: To characterize viral suppression rates at weeks 12, 24 and 48 in the standard of care treatment (SOC) arm (currently, TDF 300mg/3TC 300mg/DTG 50mg) and at weeks 12 and 48 in the BIC/FTC/TAF arm. To compare the pharmacokinetics (PK) of BIC when given twice daily and co-administered with Rifampicin during tuberculosis treatment vs when given alone after discontinuation of Rifampicin To assess the incidence of TB associated IRIS in each arm, through week 24. To characterize the tolerability of treatment in each arm by assessing frequency of clinician-initiated treatment interruptions or switches through week 48. To assess frequency of ART drug resistance mutations in participants with detectable viral load at study visit weeks 24 and 48.
