Summary

This trial is testing two drugs to see if they can treat HIV in those who haven't had treatment before.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with HIV-1 who haven't had antiretroviral therapy but may have used oral PreP. They should be healthy otherwise, with a BMI of 18.5-31 kg/m^2, CD4+ count ≥200 cells/µL, and viral load ≥3000 copies/mL. Participants must agree to start standard HIV treatment after the study and use reliable birth control.
What is being tested?
The study tests the effects of two new drugs, VH4004280 and VH4011499, taken orally by themselves for 10 days in people who have never been treated for their HIV infection before. It aims to see how well these drugs reduce the virus's presence in the blood.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects aren't specified here but could include typical reactions to antiviral medications such as nausea, headache, fatigue or allergic reactions. The exact side effects will be monitored throughout the trial.
