Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Participants will receive an infusion of both study drugs (3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS) and will discontinue antiretroviral therapy (which is the treatment for HIV) two days later. Participants will receive a second dose of the first study drug (3BNC117-LS) at week 12 if the HIV infection is maintained and participants remain off of antiretroviral therapy. The study hypothesizes that intravenous infusions (which means medication is delivered directly into a participant's vein) of the combination of study drugs will be safe and well tolerated, will maintain control of the HIV infection without antiretroviral therapy, and may be associated with a decrease in HIV found in cells that were previously infected with HIV but not actively producing HIV in the body.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Study Participants

Participants will receive an infusion of both study drugs (3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS) and will then discontinue antiretroviral therapy two days later. Participants will receive a second dose of study drug (3BNC117-LS only) at week 12 if viral suppression (when the amount of HIV in the body is kept to a very low level, which keeps the immune system working and prevents illness), is maintained and participants remain off antiretroviral therapy.

Drug: 3BNC117-LS
3BNC117-LS will be administered by intravenous infusion (directly into the participants vein) over a period of 30 to 60 minutes. The total time needed to administer the study drug may be longer, based on factors such as participant tolerance. The participant's dose will be calculated using their most current weight on record.

Drug: 10-1074-LS
10-1074-LS will be administered by intravenous infusion (directly into the participants vein) over a period of 30 to 60 minutes. The total time needed to administer the study drug may be longer, based on factors such as participant tolerance. The participant's dose will be calculated using their most current weight on record.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Occurrence of Grade ≥3 systemic AE related to combination of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS or premature study treatment discontinuation due to an AE (regardless of grade) that is related to combination of 3BNC117-LS and 10-1074-LS. [72 weeks]

  2. Viral rebound defined as confirmed HIV-1 RNA >200 copies/mL at or prior to week 24 of ART discontinuation. [24 weeks]
