Summary

The Antiretroviral Therapy as Long Acting Suppression (ATLAS) study is being conducted to establish if human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infected adult subjects with current viral suppression on a regimen with 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) plus a third agent, remain suppressed upon switching to a two-drug intramuscular (IM) long-acting (LA) regimen of cabotegravir (CAB) and rilpivirine (RPV). This is a Phase 3, multi-phase, randomized, open label, active-controlled, multicenter, parallel-group, non-inferiority study in HIV-1, antiretroviral therapy (ART)-adult subjects who are stably suppressed on a current antiretroviral (ARV) regimen. This study is designed to demonstrate the non-inferior antiviral activity of switching to a two drug CAB LA 400 mg + RPV LA 600 mg regimen every 4 weeks (Q4W: monthly) compared with maintenance of current ARV regimen containing 2 NRTIs plus an INI, NNRTI, or a PI. Eligible subjects will be randomized (1:1) into the Maintenance Phase at Day 1 to either continue current ART or switch to initiate oral therapy with CAB 30 mg + RPV 25 mg once daily for 4 Weeks followed by Q4 weekly (monthly) CAB LA + RPV LA injections. Following the Maintenance phase at Week 52, subjects who were randomized to continue their current ART regimen will be given an option to switch to CAB LA + RPV LA injections. Those subjects would transition to LA dosing, beginning with 4 weeks oral CAB + RPV therapy at Week 52, and receive the first IM CAB LA + RPV LA injections at Week 56.

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DRUG	Cabotegravir (CAB) tablet	It is a white oval shaped film coated 30 mg tablets for oral administration. CAB Tablet is composed of cabotegravir sodium, lactose monohydrate, microcrystalline cellulose, hypromellose, sodium starch glycolate, magnesium stearate, and white film-coat
DRUG	Rilpivirine (RPV) tablet	It is a 25 mg tablet with off-white, round, biconvex, film-coated and debossed on one side with "TMC" and the other side with "25". Each tablet contains RPV hydrochloride, and the inactive ingredients croscarmellose sodium, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, polysorbate 20, povidone K30 and silicified microcrystalline cellulose
DRUG	Cabotegravir - Injectable Suspension (CAB LA)	It is a sterile white to slightly pink suspension containing 200 mg/mL of CAB as free acid for administration by intramuscular (IM) injection. Each vial is for single-dose use containing a withdrawable volume of 2.0 mL, and does not require dilution prior to administration. CAB LA is composed of cabotegravir free acid, polysorbate 20, polyethylene glycol 3350, mannitol, and water for injection
DRUG	Rilpivirine - Injectable Suspension (RPV LA)	It is a sterile white suspension containing 300 mg/mL of RPV as the free base. The route of administration is by intramuscular (IM) injection. Each vial contains a nominal fill of 2.0 mL, and does not require dilution prior to administration. RPV LA requires refrigeration and must be protected from light. RPV LA is composed of RPV free base, poloxamer 338, sodium dihydrogen phosphate monohydrate, citric acid monohydrate, glucose monohydrate, sodium hydroxide, water for injection.
DRUG	2 NRTIs plus an INI, NNRTI, or PI	Acceptable stable (initial or second) ARV regimens include 2 NRTIs plus: * INI with the exception of ABC/DTG/3TC (either the initial or second cART regimen) * NNRTI (either the initial or second cART regimen) * Boosted PI (or atazanavir \[ATV\] unboosted) (either the initial or second PI-based cART regimen)
