Single-arm, multi-center, Phase I/II clinical trial, in two groups. Individuals with HIV infection taking Efavirenz (EFV), nevirapine (NVP) or lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) and two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) who have undetectable HIV viral load (VL) (\< 50 copies/mL) and an indication for tuberculosis (TB) preventive treatment (TPT), will be switched to dolutegravir (DTG) with tenofovir/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC), tenofovir/lamivudine (TDF/3TC), abacavir/lamivudine (ABC/3TC) or zidovudine/lamivudine (AZT/3TC) in accordance with South African National HIV Guidelines. Groups 1 and 2 will receive weekly HP for 12 total doses starting 4 weeks after initiating DTG. Individuals who are on an existing DTG-based plus two NRTI antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimen for at least four weeks (and have not received efavirenz, or nevirapine or lopinavir/ritonavir for at least four weeks) who have an undetectable HIV viral load may also participate.
