NCT04295460
Brief Summary:
The objective of this study is to clarify whether if starting antiretroviral treatment based on dual therapy (DTG + 3TC) could provide less control of residual HIV replication and, therefore, a detriment on immune activation and inflammation compared to starting with triple therapy, and could worsen the patients' long-term prognosis. For this purpose, the investigator has designed a randomized clinical trial where will assess the immunological recovery (CD4+/CD8+), immune activation, proliferation, senescence and apoptosis in T lymphocytes CD4+ and CD8+ cells by flow cytometry, the immune activation of monocytes/ macrophages and plasma concentrations of various inflammatory mediators by ELISAS, and the thymic function, the cellular reservoir of HIV and the degree of HIV DNA transcription by digital dropped PCR.
