Summary
A Phase I/II, open-label, single arm, two-stage trial to evaluate the single and multi-dose PK and safety of DTG in HIV-exposed neonates on ARV prophylaxis. HIV-exposed term neonates born mothers with HIV on DTG-based antiretroviral therapy with a birth weight ≥2000 g who are on ARV postnatal prophylaxis will be enrolled.

Cohort Specific Inclusion Criteria in Stage 1 must be met at Study Entry:

Cohort 1A: Infant <14 days of life Cohort 1B: Infant ≤3 days of life

Stage 2: Inclusion Criteria

- Low risk* HIV-exposed neonate (pending HIV status) born to a virologically suppressed
woman on DTG-based ART

*Neonate born to a woman with a documented plasma HIV-1 RNA result <50 copies/mL in
the 4 weeks prior to delivery or between delivery and infant study entry
