a

Values shown are ratios of central values (90% CIs) for ART plus the 3-direct-acting-antiviral regimen versus ART alone. Data are point estimates (90% confidence intervals). Point estimates are derived from the antilogarithm of the difference of the least-squares means for logarithms.

b

Geometric mean (percent coefficient of variation).

c

Median (range).

d

Harmonic mean (pseudostandard deviation).

e

Eight subjects had concentrations below the lower limit of quantitation.

f

Two subjects had concentrations below the lower limit of quantitation.

g

ND, not done. The effect of the 3-direct-acting antiviral regimen on abacavir Ctrough could not be estimated, as abacavir Ctrough concentration was below the lower limit of quantification in the majority of subjects in period 1.

h

For period 2, only data up to 48 h postdose were used for half-life determination.

i

One subject was excluded from the Ctrough analysis for lamivudine.
