Study of Oral Weekly Lepetegravir (Formerly GS-1720) and Lenacapavir Pacfosacil (Formerly GS-4182) Versus Biktarvy in People With HIV-1 Who Are Virologically Suppressed (NCT06544733)

An Operationally Seamless Phase 2/3, Randomized, Active-Controlled Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of an Oral Weekly Regimen of GS-1720 in Combination With GS-4182 Versus Biktarvy in Virologically Suppressed People With HIV-1

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 / Phase3 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Gilead Sciences

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the experimental drugs lepetegravir and lenacapavir pacfosacil; to compare the combination of lepetegravir and lenacapavir pacfosacil with the current standard-of-care treatment bictegravir/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (B/F/TAF, BVY), to see if the combination of lepetegravir and lenacapavir pacfosacil is safe and if it works for treating human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection. This study has two phases: Phase 2 and Phase 3. The primary objectives of this study are: Phase 2: To evaluate the efficacy of switching to oral weekly lepetegravir in combination with lenacapavir pacfosacil versus continuing BVY in virologically suppressed people with HIV-1 (PWH) at Week 24. Phase 3: To evaluate the efficacy of switching to oral weekly lepetegravir /lenacapavir pacfosacil Fixed-dose combination (FDC) tablet regimen versus continuing BVY in virologically suppressed PWH at Week 48.
