Efficacy of Atazanavir/Ritonavir Monotherapy as Maintenance in Patients With Viral Suppression

Summary

The study will assess whether Atazanavir/ritonavir monotherapy provides a non-inferior proportion of virological efficacy with respect to ATV/RTV + 2 NRTIs in patients with stable suppressed viremia and no prior virologic failures.
