Other illness

• Known allergy/sensitivity or any hypersensitivity to components of study treatment or its formulation.
• Any clinically significant acute or chronic medical condition (such as autoimmune diseases), other than HIV infection, that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude participation.
• Any history of an HIV-associated malignancy, including Kaposi's sarcoma and any type of lymphoma, or virus-associated cancers.

Other

• Breastfeeding or plans to become pregnant within the next 36 months.

• Ability and willingness of participant to provide informed consent.
• Initiation of combination ART within 90 days of acute HIV diagnosis as defined by any of the criteria listed below:
  • A negative HIV Ab or HIV Ag/Ab Combination Assay and a detectable HIV-1 RNA (qualitative or quantitative) or a subsequently positive Western blot (WB) or equivalent HIV-1 confirmatory assay (e.g. Geenius assay) if no positive HIV-1 RNA test was available.
  • A positive HIV Ab or HIV Ag/Ab Combination Assay or p24 antigen test and a negative or indeterminate HIV confirmatory/differentiating test with a detectable HIV-1 RNA (qualitative or quantitative).
  • A positive HIV Ab or HIV-1 RNA or p24 antigen and positive WB or Geenius HIV-1/HIV-2 Supplemental Assay that is negative for p31 band.
  • Two different rapid HIV tests with discordant results followed by subsequently positive HIV serum antibody and/or HIV-1 RNA tests.
  • A positive HIV antibody test according to standard criteria obtained within 60 days after an initial negative or indeterminate HIV antibody, antigen, or nucleic acid amplification.
• For women who are able to become pregnant, negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 48 hours prior to Step 1 entry.
• All study candidates must agree not to participate in an assisted conception process (e.g., sperm donation, intrauterine insemination, in vitro fertilization) from the screening visit until 12 weeks after the final study visit.
• Women who can become pregnant and are engaging in sexual activity that could lead to pregnancy must agree to use one highly effective method of contraception from Step 1 entry until 12 weeks after the final study visit.
• Willingness to use barrier protection (male or female) during sexual activity during ATI and through confirmed viral resuppression.
• Weight ≥50 kg and ≤150 kg at screening.
• On stable suppressive ART for at least 12 months prior to Step 1 entry. No known ART interruption for longer than 14 days within 12 months prior to Step 1 entry. No more than two known ART interruptions of a duration between 14 and 60 consecutive days since initiation of ART.
• ART regimens must contain a protease inhibitor (PI) or integrase strand transfer inhibitor (INSTI) as one of the active drugs in the ART regimen at the time of Step 1 entry.
• CD4+ cell count of \>450 cells/mL obtained within 60 days prior to Step 1 entry.
• Within 60 days prior to Step 1 entry, plasma HIV-1 RNA \< 50 copies/mL of plasma.
• Plasma HIV-1 RNA \<50 copies/mL (or below the assay limit of quantification if the local assay limit of quantification is \>50 copies/mL) since initial viral suppression on ART and for at least 1 year prior to Step 1 entry.
• Willingness to participate in an ATI.
