Conclusion – Switching to the STR TDF/FTC/RPV from a PI/r regimen in virologically suppressed, HIV-1-infected participants maintained virologic suppression with a low risk of virologic failure, while improving total cholesterol, LDL-cholesterol, and triglycerides Participants had been virologically suppressed on a PI/r regimen for at least 6 months prior to study entry and had no previous ART failure Pretreatment HIV-1 RNA levels (while still ARV-naive) did not affect maintenance of viral suppression after switch to TDF/FTC/RPV –Historical K103 resistance mutation (probably transmitted) did not affect efficacy of switch to TDF/FTC/RPV in participants of the study SPIRIT study: Switch PI/r + 2 NRTI to TDF/FTC/RPV SPIRIT Palella F, AIDS 2014;28:335-44
