Arm | Intervention/treatment |

Experimental: Blinded Phase: B/F/TAF
B/F/TAF + ABC/DTG/3TC placebo for at least 48 weeks
|
Drug: B/F/TAF
50/200/25 mg FDC tablets administered orally once daily without regard to food
Other Names:
Drug: ABC/DTG/3TC Placebo Tablets administered orally once daily without regard to food |
Active Comparator: Blinded Phase: ABC/DTG/3TC
ABC/DTG/3TC + B/F/TAF placebo for at least 48 weeks
|
Drug: ABC/DTG/3TC
600/50/300 mg FDC tablets administered orally once daily without regard to food
Other Name: Triumeq® Drug: B/F/TAF Placebo Tablets administered orally once daily without regard to food |
Experimental: Open-Label Phase
At the End of Blinded Treatment Visit, if safety and efficacy of B/F/TAF is demonstrated following review of unblinded data, participants in a country where B/F/TAF FDC is not available will be given the option to receive B/F/TAF FDC in an open-label extension phase for up to 96 weeks, or until the product becomes accessible to subjects through an access program, or until Gilead Sciences elects to discontinue the study in that country, whichever occurs first.

- Percentage of Participants With Virologic Failure (HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 Copies/mL) as Defined by the Modified US FDA-defined Snapshot Algorithm [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA ≥ 50 copies/mL at Week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
- Percentage of Participants With HIV-1 RNA < 50 Copies/mL as Defined by the US FDA-defined Snapshot Algorithm [ Time Frame: Week 48 ]The percentage of participants achieving HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL at week 48 was analyzed using the snapshot algorithm, which defines a participant's virologic response status using only the viral load at the predefined time point within an allowed window of time, along with study drug discontinuation status.
