A Randomized Clinical Trial to Evaluate Solutions for the Management of Virologic Failure for Individuals on TLD in Sub-Saharan Africa.(RESOLVE)
REFNo: HS2620ES
Aim 2: Use simulation modeling to examine the clinical impact, costs, and cost-effectiveness of strategies to improve viral suppression after virologic failure on TLD. We will populate the previously validated Cost-Effectiveness of Preventing AIDS Complications-International (CEPAC-I) model with the novel clinical trial data from Aim 1 to project long-term clinical outcomes and cumulative lifetime costs. We will then compare the cost-effectiveness of the three strategies evaluated in Aim 1 for addressing virologic failure among people treated with first-line TLD in Uganda or South Africa. ,Aim 1: Conduct a randomized clinical trial to determine the optimal strategy for management of virologic failure on first-line TLD in SSA. We will recruit 648 adolescents and adults with two viral loads >1,000 copies/mL while on first-line TLD for at least 12 months, who are in care at one of six public-sector HIV clinics in Uganda or South Africa. We will randomize participants to one of the following strategies, stratified by clinic and prior NNRTI-exposure: a) Maintenance on TLD with switch to protease inhibitor (PI)-based second-line ART if virologic failure persists past six months; b) Individualized Care, with regimen choice based on results of genotypic resistance tests and urine tenofovir assays; or c) Immediate Switch to PI-based second-line ART. The primary outcome will be viral suppression (<50 copies/mL) at 48 weeks post-enrollment using the FDA snapshot definition. We hypothesize that rates of viral suppression at 48 weeks will be higher in the Individualized Care arm than in the Maintenance on TLD and Immediate Switch arms.,
