Brief summary:
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating, multiple doses of vesatolimod (formerly GS-9620) in HIV-1 infected virologically suppressed adults on antiretroviral therapy (ART) and to evaluate the virologic effect of vesatolimod as measured by changes in plasma HIV-1 RNA.

Detailed description:

Arms: arm 1: Vesatolimod 1 mg for 71 days, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 2: Vesatolimod 2 mg for 71 days, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 3: Vesatolimod 4 mg for 71 days, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 4: Vesatolimod 6 mg for 127 days, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 5: Vesatolimod 8 mg for 127 days administered following overnight fasting, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 6: Vesatolimod 10 or 12 mg for 127 days administered following overnight fasting, while continuing their existing ARV regimen. Participants will receive 3 administrations of 10 mg, followed by 7 administrations of 12 mg (after review of 10 mg safety data) arm 7: Vesatolimod up to 12 mg for up to 127 days for up to 10 total doses administered following overnight fasting, while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 8: Vesatolimod 6 mg for 127 days for up to 10 total doses administered with an acidic solution (cranberry juice), while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 9: Vesatolimod up to 12 mg for 127 days for up to 10 total doses administered following a moderate-fat meal, after the review of the data from the highest tolerated fasted dose cohort while continuing their existing ARV regimen arm 10: Placebo to match vesatolimod for 71 or 127 days, while continuing their existing ARV regimen
Interventions: intervention 1: Vesatolimod intervention 2: Placebo intervention 3: ARV regimen
Intervention descriptions: intervention 1: Tablet(s) administered orally once every 2 weeks intervention 2: Tablet(s) administered orally once every 2 weeks intervention 3: Participants' current ARV regimen must be used in accordance with their prescribing information and may include the following: nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), raltegravir, dolutegravir, rilpivirine, and maraviroc.

Study Design:
This is a randomized, double-blinded, multi-cohort
dose-escalation study with dose cohorts: Cohort 1 (1 mg Dose), 
Cohort 2 (2 mg Dose), Cohort 3 (4 mg Dose), Cohort 4
(6 mg Dose), Cohort 5 (8 mg Dose), Cohort 6 
(three administrations of 10 mg Dose, followed by
seven administrations of 12 mg Dose; SEC review of the 10mg 
safety data will be required prior to dose escalating to 12mg), and 
optional Cohort 7
 
 
 
 
 
Two additional optional adaptive cohorts, Cohort 8 
 
and Cohort 9 
 
 
 
For each cohort, eight subjects will be randomized in a 6:2 ratio 
to receive GS-9620 or placebo. 
Subjects will receive a total of either 6 doses in Cohorts 1 to 3,
10 doses in Cohorts 4 to 6,
 
of their assigned study treatment administered once every 
other week. For all subjects in Cohort 6, Dose 4 (Day 43) will

occur after SEC review has been completed. If dose escalation is 
approved by the SEC, subjects in Cohort 6 will receive 12 mg of 
GS-9620 or placebo from Doses 4 to 10; if dose escalation is not 
approved by the SEC, subjects will continue receiving 10 mg of 
GS-9620 or placebo from Doses 4 to 10.
Enrollment will initially be opened for Cohort 1 only. A SEC will 
review study progress, safety and virology results of enrolled 
subjects. After all subjects in a cohort have received at least 
three doses (Cohorts 1 to 3, and 6) or five doses (Cohorts 4 
and 5), the SEC will review safety data from that cohort, 
including adverse events (AEs) and clinical laboratory results 
(including plasma HIV-1 RNA) before approving the next dose 
escalation. 
 
A cohort may be suspended if 
≥2 out of 6 subjects receiving GS-9620 experience one or more 
dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) considered related to study drug.
Number of Subjects 
Planned:
Approximately up to 72 subjects total (6 GS-9620; 2 placebo per 
cohort)
Subjects who discontinue study participation before completion 
of dosing for reasons other than study treatment-related AEs may 
be replaced
Target Population:
HIV-1 infected male and non-pregnant, non-lactating female 
adults who have been virologically suppressed 
(HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL) on ART for 
12 consecutive months prior to screening
Main Eligibility Criteria:

HIV-1 infection

Aged 18 years at Pre-Baseline/Day -13

On antiretroviral (ARV) treatment for
12 consecutive months prior to Pre-Baseline/Day -13
The following agents are allowed as part of the current 
ARV regimen: NRTIs, raltegravir, dolutegravir, 
rilpivirine, and maraviroc
The following agents are NOT allowed as part of the 
current ARV regimen: HIV protease inhibitors 
(including low dose ritonavir), cobicistat-containing 
regimens, elvitegravir, efavirenz, etravirine, and 
nevirapine

In order to establish eligibility, Investigators may repeat screening 
procedures or laboratory assessments for subjects who have an 
acute illness or abnormal laboratory value that is expected to 
resolve without sequelae within the screening window.
On-Study Procedures:
Dosing:
For Cohorts 1 to 3, dosing visits will occur at Day 1, Day 15, 
Day 29, Day 43, Day 57, and Day 71. For Cohorts 4 to 9, dosing 
visits will occur at Day 1, Day 15, Day 29, Day 43, Day 57, 
Day 71, Day 85, Day 99, Day 113 and Day 127.
 
For Cohorts 1 to 4, subjects will fast for at least 
2 hours before dosing. For Cohorts 5 to 8, subjects will fast 
overnight (at least 8 hours) before dosing. 
 
The Investigator will verify the subject’s continued 
eligibility for dosing at post-Baseline dosing visits, including the 
absence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) and (for females of 
childbearing potential) a negative urine pregnancy test, prior to 
dosing. All doses will be directly administered by blinded site 
staff. Subjects will fast for 2 hours after dosing for all cohorts. 
After Dose 1, subjects will remain on site for 12 hours after 
dosing for safety assessment and phlebotomy.
Safety:
Solicitation of AEs and concomitant medications and 
symptom-directed physical examination at every visit.
Hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis weekly for 
Cohorts 1 to 3. For Cohorts 4 to 9 these labs will be collected on 
dosing days, seven days post dose (starting from Dose 4), at end 
of study, and ESDD. For Cohorts 6 
 these labs will also be 
collected on Day 2 and two days post dose (starting from Dose 5).
 
Urine pregnancy test (for females of childbearing potential) prior 
to each dose.
Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, respiration rate 
and temperature) at all dosing visits.

INTRODUCTION
1.1.
Background
Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) infection is a life-threatening and serious 
disease that is of major public health interest around the world. There are approximately 
2.4 million people in North America and Western and Central Europe living with HIV-1 and 
36 million people worldwide {Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) 
2016}. Untreated infection leads to deterioration in immune function and death. The availability 
of antiretroviral therapy (ART) has been associated with a dramatic decrease in acquired immune 
deficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related morbidity and mortality {Mocroft 1998, Palella 1998, 
Sterne 2005}.
While ART effectively suppresses HIV replication, HIV infection remains incurable. 
Persistent viral reservoirs fuel rebound viremia when treatment ceases. Despite the availability of 
chronic treatment, morbidity and mortality due to HIV infection remain high due to the latent 
HIV reservoir, which may contribute to ongoing inflammation-driven disease. Current therapy is 
associated with challenges with tolerability, long-term adherence and safety, drug-drug 
interactions, and expense. Persistent HIV infection may also be associated with psychosocial 
stigma. Thus, the discovery and development of therapeutic interventions that can eradicate or 
control HIV reservoirs, leading to long-term ART-free remission or HIV cure, is a major
priority.
Following entry into a target cell, HIV-1 stably integrates into the host genome, thus establishing 
the basis for latent infection and the main barrier to HIV cure. Neither the host immune system 
nor ART can eliminate transcriptionally inactive virus. Therefore, adjunctive therapies that 
efficiently reactivate (“kick”) virus out of this latent reservoir to enable its destruction (“kill”) 
may be required for viral eradication. This “kick and kill” strategy to cure or induce long-term 
HIV remission has been tested in clinical trials of latency reversal agents (LRA) such as histone 
deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi). While short-term treatment with HDACi such as romidepsin 
appears to be safe and may activate viral transcription in individuals virologically suppressed on 
ART, the size of the latent viral reservoir as measured by total peripheral blood mononuclear cell 
(PBMC)-associated HIV-1 DNA or quantitative viral outgrowth assay (QVOA) appears to be 
unchanged {Sogaard 2015}. However, a TLR9 agonist has been dosed in HIV-1 positive 
participants on ART in a single-arm open-label study demonstrating increases in plasma IFN-α 
levels, transcriptional (messenger ribonucleic acid [mRNA] induction of interferon stimulated 
genes (ISGs), activation of pDCs, activation of cytotoxic natural killer (NK) and CD8+ T cells 
with transient increases in plasma HIV-1 RNA in a subset of individuals {Vibholm 2017}. It is 
postulated that a combination of therapies exerting viral latency reversing activity and 
engagement of the host immune system will be necessary to have a demonstrable effect on 
reducing the HIV-1 reservoir. To date there is no fully validated biomarker for the latent HIV-1
reservoir. Therefore, measurement of the time to viral rebound and/or new viral load set-points
following analytical treatment interruption (ATI) is the most accurate endpoint to evaluate the 
efficacy of “kick and kill” interventions. The AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG) has reported 
that ATI can be conducted safely in patients {Bar 2016, Li 2016} and that certain measures of 
the HIV reservoir may be correlated with time to viral rebound {Li 2016}.

GS-9620 is an orally-administered toll-like receptor (TLR) 7 agonist currently in clinical 
development for the treatment of HIV. In vitro, GS-9620 appears to mediate both HIV-1 “kick” 
and “kill” activity. In a rhesus macaque model of chronic SIV infection, treatment with GS-9620 
or its close analog GS-436986 has also demonstrated the ability to both “kick” and “kill”: 
treatment resulted in transient detection of plasma viremia within 24-72 hours of dosing, 
decreases in ex vivo SIV production from T-cell receptor stimulated PBMC cultures or immune 
cell isolates of peripheral lymph nodes comparing pre-treatment to post-dosing samples and 
a ~0.5 log10 lower viral load set-point after discontinuation of ART {Lim 2018}. Most 
importantly, in a subset of animals, there was a lack of detectable plasma virus (< 50 SIV 
RNA copies/mL) for > 2 years after discontinuation of ART. During the off ART phase,
two animals from one of the studies had no viral rebound after administration of antibodies 
depleting NK and CD8+ lymphocytes or transfer of viral infection after infusion of mononuclear 
immune cells from lymph node and peripheral blood into naïve animals; implying a substantial 
reduction in viral reservoir. The administration of multiple doses of GS-9620 has been shown to 
be safe in clinical studies of healthy subjects (single doses up to 12 mg), and hepatitis B virus 
(HBV)-infected subjects (multiple doses up to 4 mg). This study will therefore investigate the 
safety and efficacy of GS-9620 in HIV-infected individuals who are virologically suppressed on 
ART.

GS-9620
1.2.1.
General Information
GS-9620 is an orally-administered TLR7 agonist in development for the treatment of HIV 
infection.
Data in-vitro have shown that GS-9620 is a potent and selective TLR7 receptor agonist with a 
> 30-fold selectivity for TLR7 (32-fold based on EC50 and 81-fold based on minimum 
effective concentration) over toll-like receptor 8 (TLR8), with no detectable stimulation of other 
human TLRs at concentrations up to 100 μM (PC-243-2031).
Nonclinical data in mice and in chimpanzees chronically infected with HBV demonstrated that 
oral administration of GS-9620 induce a type I IFN dependent innate response in the liver, as 
measured by induction of interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs), in the absence of concomitant 
serum detectable levels of IFN-α (i.e. a pre-systemic response) {Fosdick 2013, Lanford 2013}. 
The induction of type I IFN-dependent innate immune responses without the induction of 
detectable systemic IFN-α has been confirmed in healthy human subjects (GS-US-320-0101) and 
patients affected by chronic hepatitis C (GS-US-243-0102) or by chronic hepatitis B 
(GS-US-283-0102, GS-US-283-0106, GS-US-283-1059, and GS-US-283-1062).

Preclinical Pharmacology and Toxicology
Preclinical in vivo pharmacology studies in different non-human primate species have 
consistently demonstrated that GS-9620 induces IFN-α, multiple cytokines, chemokines, 
peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) derived ISG mRNAs and peripheral immune cell 
activation in a dose-dependent manner. Of note, with escalating doses of GS-9620 cynomolgus 
monkeys were shown to have an exaggerated IFN-α response both in vitro and in vivo compared 
to other species (mice, chimpanzees, and humans).
In in vitro PBMC cultures, GS-9620 stimulated markedly higher maximal levels of secreted 
IFN-α in cynomolgus monkey PBMC compared to human PBMC cultures; the in vitro mean 
peak IFN-α was 9105 pg/mL and 1552 pg/mL in cynomolgus monkey and human PBMCs, 
respectively.
Similarly, the mean peak IFN-α concentration in serum following a single oral dose in vivo was 
notably higher in cynomolgus monkeys than healthy human volunteers at an equivalent dose; at 
0.5 mg/kg (human equivalent dose 9.6 mg) the mean peak of serum IFN-α was 4859 pg/mL in 
cynomolgus monkey versus 93.7 pg/mL in human healthy volunteers receiving 12 mg dose 
[study GS-US-243-0101] (human equivalent dose was calculated using a conversion factor 
of 0.32 for cynomolgus monkey and assuming a human body weight of 60 kg {U. S. Department 
of Health and Human Services (DHHS) 2005}).
Single oral doses of GS-9620 given in preclinical studies in cynomolgus monkeys 
(0.05 to 0.5 mg/kg, human equivalent dose 1 – 9.6 mg) and mice (0.3 mg/kg, 
human equivalent dose 1.4 mg) human equivalent dose was calculated using a conversion factor 
of 0.08 for mice and assuming a human body weight of 60 kg {U. S. Department of Health and 
Human Services (DHHS) 2005}) have shown that GS-9620 can induce an innate immunity gene
expression signature, e.g. up-regulation of interferon-stimulated genes (ISG) in the absence of 
detectable serum IFN-α concentrations. These observations are consistent with the concept of a 
pre-systemic response elicited by oral GS-9620.
Body temperature increases were noted in the cardiovascular/respiratory safety pharmacology 
study in cynomolgus monkeys (≥ 0.5 mg/kg) at Cmax exposures that were approximately 
equivalent to the Cmax at the highest dose tested in HBV infected patients 
(4 mg; study GS-US-283-0102). Increases in heart rate were observed concurrently with the 
increases in body temperature and with the peak of IFN-α levels. Of note, body temperature and 
heart rate increase were not seen at the 4-mg dose in the human clinical studies. Increases in 
body temperature and heart rate are well-described side effects of exogenous IFN-α
administration in humans {Vial 1994} and in nonhuman primates {Kubicek 1958, Vial 1994}
and may reflect the sequelae of elevated IFN-α in the cynomolgus monkeys.
In an in vitro electrophysiology assay GS-9620 inhibited the human ether-à-go-go-related gene 
(hERG)-mediated current at an IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration) value that was 
150-fold higher than the Cmax at the highest dose used in HBV infected patients
(4 mg; study GS-US-283-0102). These margins are likely even higher once adjusted for protein 
binding.

No adverse cardiovascular effects were noted in cynomolgus monkeys at Cmax exposures up to 
1.7-fold higher than projected Cmax (11.97 ng/mL) for a 12 mg dose of GS-9620, the highest dose 
planned to be used in this clinical study. No notable effects on the central nervous or respiratory 
systems were seen in the safety pharmacology studies. Safety pharmacology studies did not 
identify any major effects that would impede the use of GS-9620 in human subjects.
Preclinical toxicology studies were conducted in single dose and multiple dose settings in 
different animal species.
Single Dose Toxicology Studies
Single oral doses of GS-9620 were well tolerated at up to 30 mg/kg and up to 2 mg/kg in mice 
and cynomolgus monkeys, respectively. At higher doses, mortality was noted in single dose oral 
studies in mice at 100 mg/kg (TX-243-2008) or greater (AD-243-2017) and in a single 
woodchuck administered 10 mg/kg orally (AD-243-2014). Additionally, mortality was observed 
following intravenous administration of 3 mg/kg to rhesus monkeys (AD-243-2034). These 
deaths were attributed to high systemic exposure to GS-9620 (≥21-fold higher than the 
AUC0-24 in HBV infected patients [study GS-US-283-0102]; 44.3 pg•h/mL at 4 mg).
Multiple Dose Toxicology Studies
Oral administration of GS-9620 every-other-day (QOD) was well tolerated in the 
4-week and 6-week studies in mice, with the highest doses of 5 and 3 mg/kg QOD, respectively, 
being the no observed adverse effect levels (NOAELs) (Table 1-1).
In cynomolgus monkeys, GS-9620 was well tolerated in the 4-week study with the highest dose 
of 1.5 mg/kg QOD being the NOAEL (Table 1-1).
In the 26-week cynomolgus monkey toxicity study, GS-9620 administration at 
≤0.15 mg/kg/dose was well tolerated. Administration of 0.50 mg/kg every other day 
(reduced to 0.3 mg/kg every other day at Week 11) resulted in morbidity/mortality of 3 animals 
beyond 8 weeks of QOD dosing. In this study the pharmacodynamic effects appeared to increase 
over time and were associated with high levels of circulating IFN-α. Cynomolgus monkeys were 
the most sensitive toxicology species and have an apparent exaggerated IFN-α response to 
GS-9620 (Table 1-1). The observed mortalities in cynomolgus monkeys are consistent with data 
obtained from the New Drug Application (NDA) approvals of peginterferon alpha 2a (Pegasys®) 
and peginterferon alpha 2b (Peg-Intron®) showing that repeated high doses of IFN-α or PEG 
cause a similar spectrum of effects in cynomolgus monkeys as those observed in the 26-week 
toxicology study with GS-9620 {European Medicines Agency (EMA) 2006, Pilaro 2000}. The 
margins of exposure in the preclinical species, based on IFN-α stimulation, range from 0.33 to 
122-fold depending on the duration of exposure due to GS-9620 dosing every other day. Less 
frequent administration, once every other week, in the clinical setting would be expected to 
minimize chronic IFN-α exposure side-effects.

Monotherapy Proof-of-Concept Studies in Monkeys
In a rhesus macaque model of chronic SIV infection, treatment with GS-9620 or its close analog 
GS-436986 has also demonstrated the ability to both “kick” and “kill”. Treatment resulted in 
transient detection of plasma viremia within 24-72 hours of dosing, decreases in ex vivo SIV 
production from T-cell receptor stimulated PBMC cultures or immune cell isolates of peripheral 
lymph nodes comparing pre-treatment to post-dosing samples and a ~0.5 log10 lower viral load 
set-point after discontinuation of ART {Lim 2018}. Most importantly, in a subset of animals, 
there was a lack of detectable plasma virus (< 50 SIV RNA copies/mL) for > 2 years after 
discontinuation of ART. During the off ART phase two animals from one of the studies had no 
viral rebound after administration of antibodies depleting NK and CD8+ lymphocytes or transfer 
of viral infection after infusion of mononuclear immune cells from lymph node and peripheral 
blood into naïve animals; implying a substantial reduction in viral reservoir.
1.2.3.
Clinical Trials of GS-9620
As of 27 March 2018, 4 Phase 1 clinical studies, 1 Phase 2 clinical study, and 1 registry study 
have been completed in which 55 healthy subjects, 42 HCV infected subjects, and 230 subjects 
with chronic hepatitis B (CHB) (189 virologically suppressed and 41 treatment naive subjects) 
were dosed with GS-9620. In addition, a Phase 2 clinical trial (GS-US-283-1059) in virologically 
suppressed CHB subjects has completed dosing and a Phase 1 clinical trial (GS-US-382-3961) in 
HIV-1 infected controllers on ART is currently on-going. In these studies, single doses ranged 
from 0.3 mg to 12 mg in healthy volunteers, and from 0.3 mg to 4 mg in HCV- and 
HBV-infected subjects. Multiple doses (two doses one week apart and up to 12 doses one week 
apart) were assessed in HCV-infected and HBV-infected subjects and ranged from 0.3 mg to 
4 mg.

In HIV-infected subjects, multiple doses of GS-9620 ranging from 1 mg to 6 mg were assessed, 
with the 8 mg dosing cohort currently in progress.
1.2.3.1.
GS-US-243-0101
Study GS-US-243-0101 was a first-in-human, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 
single ascending dose (SAD) study of GS-9620 in 75 healthy male and female subjects. The 
primary objective of the study was to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GS-9620 and the 
secondary objectives were to characterize the plasma PK/PD profile of GS-9620. Doses used 
were: 0.3, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 mg.
The treatment was generally well tolerated. There were no Grade 4 AEs or serious adverse 
events (SAEs) reported, and most AEs were mild. No individual subject discontinued due to AEs 
or laboratory abnormalities. Treatment-emergent Grade 3 AEs included pyrexia in 2 subjects 
who received GS-9620 12 mg. A higher incidence of flu-like symptoms was also reported in 
subjects administered the higher doses (8 and 12 mg). Myalgia and headache were reported by 
subjects in both the 8 and 12 mg cohorts, while pyrexia and chills were only reported by subjects 
in the 12 mg cohort.
Plasma concentrations of GS-9620 peaked between 1.5 and 6 hours after dosing and declined 
gradually over 48 hours. The mean maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) ranged from 
184.2 pg/mL at the 0.3 mg dose to 11.97 ng/mL at the 12 mg dose. Exposures were higher in the 
fasted state than in the fed state. After the 1 mg, 2 mg, and 4 mg doses, GS-9620 was detectable 
at 48 hours after dosing and had a median terminal half-life between 17.16 and 26.96 hours.
Three ISGs were analyzed: ISG15, MX-1 and OAS-1. Significant ISG induction was observed at 
the 2-mg dose and above. ISG15 mRNA expression showed the highest induction compared to 
MX-1 and OAS-1. Serum IFN-α was detected transiently in subjects who received the 
8 or 12 mg doses, and only the 12 mg cohort had a >2-fold mean change in serum IFN-α from 
baseline. A dose-dependent induction was observed for serum IP-10 but not for IFN-α or TNF-α. 
Dose-dependent T cell activation was also observed at the 2 mg dose and above.
In summary, single doses of GS-9620 up to 12 mg were well tolerated, with significant ISG 
induction and T cell activation at doses of 2, 4, and 6 mg in the absence of detectable 
serum IFN-α or systemic AEs.

The following studies have also demonstrated good tolerability of GS-9620 (see IB for details):

GS-US-243-0102: A Phase 1b ascending, single and multiple-dose study evaluating the 
safety, PK, PD, and antiviral activity in treatment-naive HCV subjects.


1.2.3.3.
GS-US-283-1059
GS-US-283-1059 was a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multi-center 
study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GS-9620 in HBV-infected subjects who are 
virologically suppressed. In this study, approximately 162 subjects received weekly dosing with 
GS-9620 (1, 2 or 4 mg) or placebo for a total of 4 (Cohort A), 8 (Cohort B) or 12 (Cohort C)
weeks. The efficacy of GS-9620 was evaluated by assessing the change from baseline to 
Week 24 in HBsAg levels. Overall, once-weekly dosing of GS-9620 1, 2, or 4 mg for 4, 8, or 
12 weeks was generally well tolerated in virologically-suppressed subjects with CHB on OAV. 
Most subjects had Grade 1 (mild) AEs and, except for the Cohort C 4 mg group in which a 
higher proportion of subjects had Grade 2 (moderate) and 3 (severe) AEs compared with 
Cohorts A and B. No other dose-related or treatment duration-related safety findings were 
observed. No Grade 4 (life threatening) AEs were reported in any of the cohorts. Four subjects 
had SAEs, 3 of these subjects had AEs that led to discontinuation of study drug, and 3 of the 
4 subjects had study drug interrupted due to AEs. No deaths occurred in any study participant.
Two subjects interrupted study treatment after having experienced SAEs due to an overdose 
caused by a dispensing error at the study site. One of these subjects randomized to 2 mg
GS-9620 mistakenly received 10 mg and one subject randomized to 4 mg mistakenly received
20 mg. These 2 subjects experienced transient Grade 3 AEs of flu-like symptoms, , and decline 
in lymphocytes count; the subject who received 10 mg experienced Grade 3 AEs of pyrexia, 
chills and hot flush, all SAEs that were assessed as related to study drug by the investigator. The 
subject who received 20 mg experienced SAEs of Grade 3 AE of tremor and Grade 2 
hypotension requiring hospitalization. This subject also experienced additional Grade 2 AEs of 
abdominal pain, diarrhea, and vomiting, and an increase in ALT value. For both subjects, each of 
the AEs resolved within24 hours after overdose. A meeting of the Data Monitoring Committee
reviewed these events and determined them to be due to the overdose of GS-9620 with expected
effects of interferon-alpha induction and cytokine release and allowed for the study to proceed as
planned. The other two subjects with SAEs were in Cohort C (cataract, which was reported in 
one subject with a medical history of cataract, and cholecystitis, which was reported in the other 
subject). The subject who experienced cholecystitis also withdrew from study drug and the 
study.
Most AEs reported were Grade 1 or Grade 2 in severity. No Grade 4 (life threatening) AEs 
occurred in any of the cohorts. For Cohort A, 1 subject in each group had Grade 3 AEs. None of 
the Grade 3 AEs led to withdrawal from study drug and none occurred in more than 1 subject. 
All of the Grade 3 AEs resolved. Excluding the 2 overdosed subjects discussed above, 2 subjects 
(placebo and GS-9620 1 mg) experienced transient Grade 3 AE of anxiety and diarrhea, 
respectively, during the treatment period with GS-9620/placebo; both AEs resolved within

24 hours. For Cohort B, no subjects had Grade 3 AEs. For Cohort C, 6 subjects had Grade 3 
AEs: 2 subjects in the GS-9620 1 mg group, 1 subject in the GS-9620 2 mg group, 2 subjects in 
the GS-9620 4 mg group, and 1 subject in the placebo group. Two subjects, both in the GS-9620 
4 mg group, with Grade 3 AEs (cholecystitis [discussed above] and panic attack) withdrew from 
the study and study drug.
Overall, patients from both the GS-9620-treated and placebo groups experienced a similar 
number of treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs) (68% study drug vs. 70% placebo). Upon 
assessment of relation to study drug, 37% of patients treated with GS-9620 reported at least one 
AE compared to 50% of placebo patients, all of which were mild to moderate in severity. No 
dose-dependency for AEs was observed across cohorts. The most commonly reported related 
AEs (for ≥2 or more patients) in Cohort A were fatigue (4 of 16 [25.0%] subjects) and diarrhea, 
headache, oropharyngeal pain, pruritus, and pyrexia (each of which occurred in 2 of 16 patients 
[12.5%]) (1-mg group); headache (4 of 15 [26.7%] subjects), fatigue (3 of 15 [20.0%] patients) 
and chills (2 of 15 [13.3%] patients) (2-mg group); and fatigue and pyrexia (each in 3 of 16 
[18.8%] patients) and headache (2 of 16 [12.5%] patients) (4-mg group). In Cohort B, headache 
(6 of 18 [33.3%] patients), nausea (3 of 18 [16.7%] patients) and acne, dizziness, fatigue, 
insomnia, and oropharyngeal pain (each in 2 of 18 [11.1%] patients) (1-mg group); headache and 
dizziness (each in 2 of 17 [11.8%] patients) (2-mg group); and headache (4 of 17 
[23.5%] patients) and fatigue, influenza-like illness, and rhinorrhea (each in 2 of 17 [11.8%] 
patients) (4-mg group) were most common. In Cohort C, headache, fatigue, influenza-like illness 
(each in 4 of 16 [25.0%] patients) and asthenia, pyrexia and somnolence (each in 2 of 16 [12.5%] 
patients) (1-mg group); abdominal pain upper and headache (each in 3 of 17 [17.6%] patients) 
and fatigue (2 of 17 [11.8%] patients) (2-mg group); and asthenia (5 of 14 [35.7%] patients), 
headache, influenza-like illness, and pyrexia (each in 3 of 14 [21.4%] patients) and myalgia (2 of 
14 [14.3%] patients) (4-mg group). Headache was the most commonly reported placebo group 
AE (40-50% of patients).
Among the patients dosed with GS-9620, treatment-emergent graded ALT elevations were seen 
in 5 subjects (4 subjects with Grade 1 and one subject with Grade 2). All grade 1 elevations were 
transient (1 placebo, 1 GS-9620 2 mg, and 2 GS-9620 4 mg) and the grade 2 elevation occurred 
22 days after the last dose of GS-9620 4 mg and reduced to grade 1 elevation 3 days later.

B virus infection for additional information regarding the above studies.

GS-US-283-1062
This Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is being conducted to evaluate 
the safety and efficacy of administering either 1 mg, 2 mg or 4 mg of GS-9620 orally once a 
week (every 7 days) for 12 doses (Weeks 0-11) in adult subjects with CHB who were not 
currently on treatment for CHB. 192 subjects were randomized in a 1:2:2:2 ratio to 1 of the 
4 treatment arms (placebo, GS-9620 1 mg, 2 mg, or 4 mg) for weekly dosing for a total of 
12 doses and stratified by HBeAg status (positive versus negative) and ALT (> versus 
≤19 IU/mL for female; > versus ≤ 30 IU/mL for male). All subjects were also treated with TDF 
300 mg oral daily for 48 weeks.

Preliminary interim safety results from Week 48 show that overall, once-weekly dosing of 
GS-9620 1, 2, or 4 mg was generally well tolerated. 65% of subjects overall had at least 1 AE 
during the study and most of the reported AEs were Grade 1 (mild) or 2 (moderate) in severity. 
Overall, the majority of subjects had Grade 1 (mild) or moderate (Grade 2) AEs. Six subjects 
experienced Grade 3 (severe) AEs. No Grade 4 (life threatening) AEs were reported in any of the 
treatment groups. 
Four subjects had treatment-emergent SAEs: an SAE of laceration (deep laceration on the right 
foot) on Day 133 which resolved on Day 252, an SAE of asthma (worsening of asthma) on 
Day 257 which resolved on Day 288, an SAE of breast cancer on Day 422 continuing at the time 
of the interim data cut, and an SAE of abdominal pain (exacerbation of chronic generalized 
abdominal pain) on Day 71 which resolved on Day 85. All SAEs were considered by the 
investigator to be unrelated to study drugs or to study procedures. No action was taken with 
study drugs, with the exception of TDF dose interruption for the abdominal pain case and dose 
withdrawn for the breast cancer case. No deaths occurred.
Six subjects overall (3.1%) discontinued study drug due to an AE, all of which were considered 
related to study drugs by the investigator.
Across the treatment groups, most laboratory abnormalities were Grade 1 or 2 in severity. 
Five subjects had ALT ≥10x ULN and thirty had ALT between 3x ULN and < 10x ULN and 
> 2x nadir.
1.2.3.5.
GS-US-382-3961
This ongoing Phase 1b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is being conducted
to evaluate the safety and efficacy of GS-9620 in antiretroviral treated HIV-1 infected 
controllers. The study is conducted in two periods. In Period 1, up to 30 subjects will be 
randomized 2:1 to receive GS-9620 or placebo-to-match. All subjects will receive up to 10 doses 
of their assigned study treatment administered orally every 14 days. Subjects will continue to 
take their prescribed ART during Period 1. In Period 2, all subjects will discontinue ART and be 
monitored for rebound in HIV-1 plasma viremia. Enrollment is ongoing and several subjects 
have completed dosing (4-6 mg) and are undergoing ART interruption (Period 2).
1.3.
Rationale for This Study
Despite the extensive advances made in the treatment of chronic HIV-1 infection, eradication of 
the latent HIV-1 reservoir is still needed to achieve a cure that abrogates the requirement for 
lifelong ART. To this end, “kick and kill” strategies to reactivate and target latent virus have 
been tested in a number of clinical trials, but none have resulted in lasting virologic remission. 
GS-9620 is a promising candidate for this approach given the demonstration of both SIV 
reactivation (as measured by transient plasma viremia in the presence of ART), decrease in SIV 
reservoir (as measured by proviral DNA in PBMCs, lymph node and colon), and ~0.5 log 
reduction in SIV set point relative to pre-ART plasma viral load set point following ART 
interruption in studies of SIV-infected rhesus macaques treated with GS-436986, a close analog 
of GS-9620. In a second study in SIV-infected rhesus on ART the TLR7 agonists GS-9620 or 
GS-436986 administered for 10 or 19 doses produced transient plasma viremia within

24-72 hours after dosing. Sampling PBMCs and immune cell isolates from lymph node biopsies 
prior to TLR7 agonist administration and after completing all doses demonstrated a decrease in 
the amount of SIV production following T-cell receptor stimulation. Interestingly, two of these 
animals, one from the GS-9620 dosing group and one from the GS-436986 dosing group had no 
detectable ex vivo SIV production from both PBMCs and isolated immune cells from lymph 
node biopsies. Most importantly, after ART discontinuation these same two animals had no 
detectable plasma virus (< 50 SIV RNA copies/mL) rebound which has been sustained for at 
least twenty four months. These results suggest the possible use of TLR7 agonists in 
combination with ART toward reduction of HIV reservoirs and ultimately finite therapies for 
HIV-1 infection. In addition, GS-9620 appears to be safe in healthy and HBV-infected subjects.
1.4.
Rationale for Dose Selection/Dosing Interval
In 50 HCV and in 100 HBV patients, doses of up to 4 mg of GS-9620 were evaluated, either as a 
single dose or two doses one week apart. Safety data from these studies demonstrated that 
GS-9620 is well-tolerated with no evidence of dose dependent adverse events or laboratory 
abnormalities that are consistent with systemic immune activation such as flu-like symptoms, 
hematologic reductions or increases in liver enzymes including transaminases. In the majority of 
patients there was no detectable IFN-α in serum, consistent with the mechanism of action of 
pre-systemic innate immune system activation in the GALT and/or in the liver. Evidence of 
biological activity was observed in a dose dependent manner in these studies, with maximal 
induction of ISG15 occurring within 48 hours and return to baseline levels of expression within 
168 hours (7 days). In addition, the safety of a weekly dosing interval was supported by the 
observed elimination half-life (median range 8 to 25 hours for 1, 2, or 4 mg doses in HBV- or 
HCV-infected subjects) and that no accumulation of GS-9620 occurred following once-weekly 
dosing.
A dosing schedule of once every 2 weeks is planned for this protocol in order to verify the 
resolution of GS-9620-induced HIV-1 viremia prior to additional dosing. This schedule is more 
conservative than the weekly administrations used in the Phase 1 evaluations across the 
above-referenced studies in chronic hepatitis B and C patients.
In the current study GS-US-382-1450, approximately 32 HIV-1-infected subjects have received 
biweekly dosing with GS-9620 (1, 2 and 4 mg) or placebo for a total of 6 doses, and GS-9620 
6 mg or placebo for a total of 10 doses. No safety issues including dose-limiting toxicities were 
identified; however, pharmacodynamic and virologic effects were limited. The protocol-defined 
safety evaluation committee (SEC) recommended proceeding with enrollment of the 6 mg cohort 
on February 7, 2017. In the 6 mg dose cohort (Cohort 4) of this study, 6 subjects experienced 
treatment-emergent AEs. Three of these subjects had AEs which were considered to be related to 
study drug by the investigator: one subject had decreased concentration, vivid dreams, sweats, 
and fatigue; another subject had headache and increased peripheral neuropathy; the third subject 
had fatigue, myalgia, and nasal congestion. All of these AEs were grade 1 or 2 and all resolved 
during the dosing period. There have been no grade 3 or 4 AEs, AEs leading to study drug 
discontinuation, SAEs or deaths. The protocol-defined SEC reviewed blinded safety data from 
the 6 mg cohort on 25 September 2017 and recommended proceeding with the addition of the 
8 mg cohort (Cohort 5). In the 8 mg dose cohort (Cohort 5) of this study, a total of 8 subjects

have been enrolled and are currently being dosed with study drug. At the time of the interim 
safety data cut (30 April 2018), all subjects had completed 5 out of 10 doses, and 3 subjects had 
completed 6 doses. There have been no grade 3 or 4 AEs, AEs leading to study drug 
discontinuation, SAEs or deaths. Three subjects have had mild AEs considered related to study 
drug by the investigator. These AEs include chills and malaise in one subject, pyrexia and 
myalgia in another subject, and headache in the last subject. All resolved within one day and 
have not recurred after Dose 3, thus far. If the SEC recommends proceeding with the 10 mg dose
escalation of GS-9620, Cohort 6 will be opened for enrollment with the potential to escalate to 
the 12 mg dose of GS-9620, starting with dose 4 (out of 10 total doses of GS-9620). In Cohort 6, 
the SEC will review blinded safety data after all subjects have completed three doses of 10 mg of 
GS-9620 or placebo. Dose escalation to 12 mg of GS-9620 within Cohort 6 will only be initiated 
if SEC approval is obtained.
The highest GS-9620 dose planned to be assessed in this clinical study may be up to 12 mg. 
Dose selection has been based on the results from the study in healthy volunteers 
(GS-US-243-0101) that showed dose-dependent ISG mRNA induction from 0.3 mg up to 12 mg
in the absence of dose-dependent induction in serum IFN-α. As described above, dose escalation 
to Cohort 6 (GS-9620 10 mg) for the proposed study is also based on interim safety data from the
ongoing 8 mg cohort (Cohort 5) as described above.
 
 
With regard to the proposed adaptive cohorts, food affects absorption of GS-9620 and 
administration of GS-9620 4 hours post-ingestion of a high fat meal in Study GS-US-243-0101 
resulted in approximately 30% reduction of systemic exposures of GS-9620, minimal effect on 
PD biomarkers and improved tolerability. Dosing GS-9620 with an acidic solution may improve 
the solubility and absorption of the compound. 
 
 
 
 
1.5.
Rationale for Biomarker Testing
It is hypothesized that the mechanism of action of GS-9620 is partly due to the initial activation 
of the innate immune system via TLR7 positive pDCs, promoting activation and maturation of 
pDCs and the release of antiviral cytokines and chemokines including IFN-α. The matured pDCs 
present HIV antigens to HIV-specific CD4 and CD8 T cells, thereby enhancing the HIV-specific 
adaptive response (cytotoxic CD8 T cells). These multifaceted effector mechanisms 
(cytotoxic CD8 T cells, NK cells, and antiviral cytokines) together strengthen the lymphocyte 
anti-HIV immune response and may lead to lowering the viral set point.

To provide proof of concept on the mechanism of action of GS-9620 in HIV-1 infected patients, 
several exploratory immunological biomarkers will be examined and listed below. The testing 
outlined below is based upon the current state of scientific knowledge. It may be modified during 
or after the end of the study to remove tests no longer indicated and/or to add new tests based on 
the growing state of the art knowledge. The following samples and biomarkers will be examined:

Whole blood samples will be collected for interferon stimulated gene (ISG) mRNA 
measurements 

Whole blood samples will be collected, mononuclear cells isolated, and frequency and 
phenotype (activation, maturation, exhaustion) of lymphocyte populations will be 
enumerated by flow cytometry.

Whole blood samples will be collected, mononuclear cells isolated and the frequency of 
HIV-specific T-cells will be quantitated by ex vivo IFN-γ ELISPOT assay and 
poly-functional ICS.

Levels of cytokines, chemokines, and inflammatory markers will be quantified by 
immunoassays.

Stool samples will be collected in Cohorts 5 to 9 for testing of the fecal microbiome and 
exploratory analysis

Study Design
This protocol describes a randomized, double-blind, multi-cohort dose escalation study that will 
evaluate the safety and efficacy of 1 mg, 2 mg, 4 mg, 6 mg, 8 mg, 10 mg and 12 mg of GS-9620 
or placebo administered orally every other week for 71 days (for Cohorts 1 to 3), 127 days 
(for Cohorts 4 to 6), 
in HIV-1 infected, ARV-treated,
virologically suppressed adults. For each cohort, subjects will be randomized in a 6:2 ratio to 
receive GS-9620 or placebo. For Cohorts 5, 6
 eight unique subjects per cohort will receive 
GS-9620 or placebo after an overnight fast. 
All subjects will receive a total of 6 doses (for Cohorts 1 to 3), 
10 doses (for Cohorts 4 to 9) of their assigned study treatment administered once every other 
week. For all subjects in Cohort 6, Dose 4 (Day 43) will occur after SEC review has been

completed. If dose escalation is approved by the SEC, subjects in Cohort 6 will receive 12 mg of 
GS-9620 or placebo from Doses 4 to 10; if dose escalation is not approved by the SEC, subjects 
will continue receiving 10 mg of GS-9620 or placebo from Doses 4 to 10. 
 
 
Subjects will continue their 
ARV regimen for the entire study duration.
Subjects will return for an end of study visit 30 days after the last dose of study drug is taken.
Enrollment will initially be opened for Cohort 1 only. The SEC will review study progress,
safety and virology data of enrolled subjects. After all subjects in a cohort have received at least 
three doses (Cohorts 1 to 3, and 6) or five doses (Cohorts 4 to 5), the SEC will review safety data 
from that cohort, including adverse events, clinical laboratory results and plasma HIV-1 RNA, 
before approving the next dose escalation. 
 
A 
cohort may be suspended if ≥2 out of 6 subjects receiving GS-9620 experience one or more 
DLTs considered related to study drug. The SEC will consist of members not directly involved 
with the conduct of the study. Please refer to the SEC Charter for additional details.

Other Protocol Restrictions
Subjects will be encouraged to avoid strenuous or prolonged exercise, as well as saunas, 
steam baths, and sunbathing or other prolonged UV exposure, (eg in a tanning salon) from the 
screening evaluation until completion of end of study procedures, as these activities are known to 
affect certain clinical laboratory test parameters, (eg CPK) and may provide false indicators of a 
potentially treatment-related toxicity.
Subjects will also be prohibited from blood donation (in excess of that required for clinical care) 
within 30 days prior to Screening and 30 days after end of study.
Smokers and other current tobacco users should keep their tobacco use relatively consistent 
while enrolled in the study. Non-smokers or ex-smokers should not start or resume smoking.
Other restrictions include all illegal or illicit drug use and use of prescription drugs outside the 
care of the prescribing physician.

Randomization, Blinding and Treatment Codes
The randomization will be performed via an Interactive Web Response System (IWRS), whereby 
study treatment will be assigned to subjects according to the randomization schedule.
The subject number assignment may be performed up to 3 days prior to the in-clinic
Pre-Baseline/Day -13 visit, provided that all other screening procedures have been completed 
and subject eligibility has been confirmed. Once a subject number has been assigned, it will not 
be reassigned to any other subject.
Eligible subjects (n= 72, 8 per cohort) will be randomized in a 6:2 ratio to receive GS-9620 
1 mg or placebo (Cohort 1), 2 mg or placebo (Cohort 2), 4 mg or placebo (Cohort 3), 6 mg or 
placebo (administered as three 2 mg tablets) (Cohorts 4
 8 mg or placebo (administered as 
two 4 mg tablets) (Cohort 5), 10 mg or placebo (Cohort 6) (administered as five 2 mg tablets), 
with the potential to escalate to 12 mg or placebo (administered as six 2 mg tablets, or three 4 mg 
tablets) with prior approval from SEC, 
Clinical Packaging & Labeling for purposes of managing blinded labeling and Clinical Supply 
Management for purposes of inventory management will remain unblinded throughout the study 
to prepare and manage the study drug. The Pharmacokinetics File Administrator, or designee, 
who facilitates data transfer of PK files between Gilead and vendors, will remain unblinded.
5.1.1.
Procedures for Breaking Treatment Codes
In the event of a medical emergency where breaking the blind is required to provide medical care 
to the subject, the investigator may obtain treatment assignment directly from the IWRS system 
for that subject. Gilead recommends but does not require that the investigator contact the 
Gilead medical monitor before breaking the blind. Treatment assignment should remain blinded 
unless that knowledge is necessary to determine subject emergency medical care. The rationale 
for unblinding must be clearly explained in source documentation and on the electronic case 
report form (eCRF), along with the date on which the treatment assignment was obtained. The 
investigator is requested to contact the Gilead medical monitor promptly in case of any treatment 
unblinding.
Blinding of study treatment is critical to the integrity of this clinical trial and therefore, if a 
subject’s treatment assignment is disclosed to the investigator, the subject may have study 
treatment discontinued at SEC discretion. All subjects will be followed until study completion 
unless consent to do so is specifically withdrawn by the subject.
Gilead Pharmacovigilance and Epidemiology (PVE) may independently unblind cases for 
expedited reporting of suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs).

eye contact or exposure through inhalation when handling GS-9620.
5.4.
Prior and Concomitant Medications
No clinical drug-drug interaction studies have been conducted with GS-9620. GS-9620 is 
predominantly metabolized by CYP3A with minor contribution of CYP2C8 and CYP2D6 in 
vitro, and was shown to be a substrate of P-gp and BCRP in vitro. GS-9620 plasma exposure 
may increase or decrease on co-administration with CYP3A/P-gp/BCRP inhibitors or inducers. 
ARV agents known to inhibit or induce CYP3A/P-gp/BCRP are excluded from use in this 
protocol. The following agents are NOT allowed as part of the current ARV regimen: HIV 
protease inhibitors (including low dose ritonavir), cobicistat-containing regimens, elvitegravir, 
efavirenz, etravirine, and nevirapine.
Concomitant use of herbal/natural supplements with GS-9620 may result in pharmacokinetic 
interactions resulting in alterations in exposure of GS-9620. Administration of GS-9620 with 
grapefruit juice or Seville orange juice may result in higher exposures to GS-9620. Subjects will 
refrain from consumption of grapefruit juice, grapefruits, and Seville orange juice throughout
participation in the study.
Subjects are restricted from receiving therapy with any medication listed in Table 5-3. 
Administration of any of the disallowed medications listed in Table 5-3 must be discontinued at 
least 14 days prior to the Baseline/Day 1 visit and through completion of treatment or the 
Early Study Drug Discontinuation Visit. Any medications not on the list must be reviewed 
with the Sponsor prior to randomization and during the study treatment period. Vitamins 
and/or acetaminophen and/or ibuprofen and/or hormonal contraceptive medications are 
exceptions and are allowed during the study period. No immunomodulatory concomitant 
medications are allowed for at least 30 days prior to Pre-Baseline/Day -13.
Subjects’ ARV regimens must be used in accordance with their Prescribing Information.
At clinically achieved plasma concentrations, GS-9620 is not expected to be a perpetrator of 
systemic drug-drug interactions. GS-9620 concentrations estimated to be achieved in the gut at 
the ≥10 mg GS-9620 doses may transiently inhibit intestinal P-gp and increase systemic 
exposures of the drugs that are known P-gp substrates. It is recommended that oral P-gp 
substrates are administered with caution in combination with GS-9620 ≥10 mg doses.

Should subjects have a need to initiate treatment with any concomitant medication, the 
Gilead Medical Monitor must be consulted prior to initiation of the new medication. In instances 
where a medication is initiated prior to discussion with the Sponsor, the Investigator must notify 
Gilead as soon as he/she is aware of the use of the medication.
5.5.
Accountability for GS-9620
The investigator is responsible for ensuring adequate accountability of all used and unused study 
drug. This includes acknowledgement of receipt of each shipment of study drug
(quantity and condition).
GS-9620 accountability records will be provided to each study site to:

Record the date received and quantity of study drug bottles

Record the date, subject number, subject initials, the study drug bottle number the pills were 
dispensed from.

Record the date, quantity of used and unused study drug returned or destroyed, along with 
the initials of the person recording the information.
5.5.1.
Investigational Medicinal Product Return or Disposal
Gilead recommends that used and unused IMP supplies be returned to the shipping facility from 
which it came for eventual destruction. The study monitor will provide instructions for return. If 
return is not possible, the study monitor will evaluate each study center’s IMP disposal 
procedures and provide appropriate instruction for destruction of unused IMP supplies. If the site 
has an appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by 
Gilead QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused IMP supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files. 
If IMP is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all IMP 
destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the method 
of destruction, and the person who disposed of the IMP. Upon study completion, copies of the 
IMP accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be returned to Gilead. If 
drug is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all study drug
bottles destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the 
method of destruction, and person who disposed of the drug. All study drug records must be 
maintained at the site and copies must be submitted to Gilead Sciences at the end of the study.
The study monitor will review IMP supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.

STUDY PROCEDURES
The study procedures to be conducted for each subject enrolled in the study are presented in 
tabular form in Appendix 2 and described in the text that follows.
The investigator must document any deviation from protocol procedures and notify the sponsor 
or contract research organization (CRO).
6.1.
Subject Enrollment and Treatment Assignment
It is the responsibility of the investigator to ensure that subjects are eligible to participate in the 
study prior to enrollment. Each study candidate must sign an Informed Consent Form prior to the 
conduct of any screening procedures, in accordance with regulatory and local 
Institutional Review Board requirements. Once consent has been obtained, all screening tests and 
procedures have been completed, and study eligibility has been confirmed, subjects will be 
randomized using an IWRS. Subjects will receive study drug within their assigned treatment 
group as described in Section 5.1. With Gilead Medical Monitor approval, candidates who fail to 
meet eligibility criteria by screening evaluations may be re-screened if there is a reasonable 
expectation that the candidate will be eligible after repeat screening. The Medical Monitor must 
approve all re-screening requests.
Retests of screening labs are permitted only if there is reason to believe the retest value will be 
within accepted parameters, if the initial value was either due to a sample processing error or due 
to an extenuating circumstance (e.g. intercurrent infection). Reasons for any re-tests should be 
documented.
6.2.
Pretreatment Assessments Screening Visit (all cohorts)
Subjects will be screened within 35 days before randomization to determine eligibility for 
participation in the study. The following will be performed and documented at screening:
6.2.1.1.

Prolonged Viremia
Subjects will be considered to have prolonged viremia if they have two consecutive plasma 
HIV-1 RNA levels ≥200 copies/mL during a single dosing period.
6.8.1.
Management of Prolonged Viremia
If plasma HIV-1 RNA level is ≥200 copies/mL at any visit post-dose, viral load will be tested at 
next scheduled visit or retested within 4 days. The next dose will be withheld and only given 
after viral load of ≤200 copies/mL is achieved. The study procedure schedule will be reset 
relative to the next dose of study drug. 
If HIV-1 RNA viral load ≥200 copies/mL is confirmed during a single dosing period, then this 
subject will be considered to have prolonged viremia and blood samples from this visit will be 
used for HIV-1 genotype/phenotype testing with assays corresponding to the antiretroviral
medications the subject is taking.
If primary resistance mutations to the subject’s existing ART regimen are identified, a new ART
regimen will be configured at the discretion of the Investigator and the subject will be 
discontinued from the study. If the genotyping/phenotyping assay fails to provide results or no 
drug resistance mutations are identified, a new ART regimen may be configured at the discretion
of the Investigator. Subjects who start a new ART regimen will not be allowed to receive further
doses of study drug, but can be monitored for the study duration at the discretion of the study
Investigator. Subjects who remain on their current ART regimen must show confirmed HIV-1 
RNA levels <200 copies/mL before resuming study drug dosing at the discretion of the 
Investigator.

ADVERSE EVENTS AND TOXICITY MANAGEMENT
7.1.
Definitions of Adverse Events, Adverse Reactions, and Serious Adverse 
Events
7.1.1.
Adverse Events
An adverse event (AE) is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study subject 
administered a medicinal product, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the 
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease 
temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to 
the medicinal product. AEs may also include pre- or post-treatment complications that occur as a 
result of protocol specified procedures, lack of efficacy, overdose, drug abuse/misuse reports, or 
occupational exposure. Preexisting events that increase in severity or change in nature during or 
as a consequence of participation in the clinical study will also be considered AEs.
An AE does not include the following:

Medical or surgical procedures such as surgery, endoscopy, tooth extraction, and transfusion. 
The condition that led to the procedure may be an adverse event and must be reported.

Pre-existing diseases, conditions, or laboratory abnormalities present or detected before the 
screening visit that do not worsen

Situations where an untoward medical occurrence has not occurred (e.g., hospitalization for 
elective surgery, social and/or convenience admissions)

Overdose without clinical sequelae (see Section 7.7.1)

Any medical condition or clinically significant laboratory abnormality with an onset date 
before the consent form is signed and not related to a protocol-associated procedure is not an 
AE. It is considered to be pre-existing and should be documented on the medical history 
eCRF.
7.1.2.
Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) is defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following:

Death

Life-threatening (Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event that hypothetically might have caused death if it were more severe.)

In-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization


GS-9620
Protocol GS-US-382-1450
Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc.
Amendment 7
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 69
16 January 2019

Persistent or significant disability/incapacity

A congenital anomaly/birth defect

A medically important event or reaction: such events may not be immediately 
life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the subject or may 
require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs. Medical and 
scientific judgment must be exercised to determine whether such an event is a reportable 
under expedited reporting rules. Examples of medically important events include intensive 
treatment in an emergency room or at home for allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or 
convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; and development of drug dependency or 
drug abuse. For the avoidance of doubt, infections resulting from contaminated medicinal 
product will be considered a medically important event and subject to expedited reporting 
requirements.
7.1.3.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities without clinical significance are not recorded as AEs or SAEs. 
However, laboratory abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) that 
require medical or surgical intervention or lead to IMP interruption, modification, or 
discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, 
laboratory or other abnormal assessments (eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are 
associated with signs and/or symptoms must be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the 
definition of an AE or SAE as described in Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory 
abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the syndrome or diagnosis (eg, anemia), not the 
laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
For specific information on handling of clinical laboratory abnormalities in this study, please 
refer to Section 7.5.
7.2.
Assessment of Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing AEs and SAEs for 
causality and severity, and for final review and confirmation of accuracy of event information 
and assessments.
7.2.1.
Assessment of Causality for Study Drugs and Procedures
The investigator or qualified subinvestigator is responsible for assessing the relationship to 
IMP therapy using clinical judgment and the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the IMP. For SAEs, an 
alternative causality must be provided (eg, pre-existing condition, underlying disease, 
intercurrent illness, or concomitant medication).

Yes: There is reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the 
investigational medicinal product.

Final
Gilead Sciences, Inc.
Amendment 7
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 70
16 January 2019
It should be emphasized that ineffective treatment should not be considered as causally related in 
the context of adverse event reporting.
The relationship to study procedures (eg, invasive procedures such as venipuncture or biopsy) 
should be assessed using the following considerations:

No: Evidence exists that the adverse event has an etiology other than the study procedure.

Yes: The adverse event occurred as a result of protocol procedures, (eg., venipuncture)
7.2.2.
Assessment of Severity
A distinction should be drawn between seriousness and severity of AEs. An AE that is assessed 
as Grade 4 (potentially life-threatening) should not be confused with an SAE. Severity is a 
category utilized for rating the intensity of an event; and both AEs and SAEs can be assessed as 
Grade 4. An event is defined as “serious” when it meets one of the predefined outcomes 
described above in Section 7.1.2.
Severity should be recorded and graded according to the GSI Grading Scale for Severity of 
Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities (Appendix 4) For adverse events associated with 
laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the clinical severity in the 
context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement with the grading of 
the laboratory abnormality.
7.3.
Investigator Requirements and Instructions for Reporting Adverse Events 
and Serious Adverse Events to Gilead
Requirements for collection prior to study drug initiation:
After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication, the following types of events 
should be reported on the case report form (eCRF): all serious adverse events (SAEs) and 
adverse events related to protocol-mandated procedures.
Adverse Events
Following initiation of study medication, collect all AEs, regardless of cause or relationship, 
until 30 days after last administration of study IMP must be reported to the eCRF database as 
instructed.
All AEs should be followed up until resolution or until the adverse event is stable, if possible. 
Gilead Sciences may request that certain AEs be followed beyond the protocol defined follow up 
period.
Serious Adverse Events
All SAEs, regardless of cause or relationship, that occurs after the subject first consents to 
participate in the study (ie, signing the informed consent) and throughout the duration of the 
study, including the protocol-required post treatment follow-up period, must be reported to the 
eCRF database and Gilead Pharmacovigilance and Epidemiology (PVE) as instructed. This also 
includes any SAEs resulting from protocol-associated procedures performed after informed 
consent is signed.

Gilead Sciences, Inc.
Amendment 7
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 71
16 January 2019
Any SAEs and deaths that occur after the post treatment follow-up visit but within 4 weeks of 
the last dose of study IMP, regardless of causality, should also be reported.
Investigators are not obligated to actively seek SAEs after the protocol defined follow up period,
however, if the investigator learns of any SAEs that occur after study participation has concluded 
and the event is deemed relevant to the use of IMP, he/she should promptly document and report 
the event to Gilead PVE.

All AEs and SAEs will be recorded in the eCRF database within the timelines outlined in the 
eCRF completion guideline.
Electronic Serious Adverse Event (eSAE) Reporting Process

Site personnel record all SAE data in the eCRF database and from there transmit the SAE 
information to Gilead PVE within 24 hours of the investigator’s knowledge of the event. 
Detailed instructions can be found in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If for any reason it is not possible to record the SAE information electronically, ie, the eCRF 
database is not functioning, record the SAE on the paper serious adverse event reporting 
form and submit within 24 hours to Gilead PVE:
Gilead Sciences PVE Representative:
Fax:
E-mail:

As soon as it is possible to do so, any SAE reported via paper must be transcribed into the 
eCRF database according to instructions in the eCRF completion guidelines.

If an SAE has been reported via a paper form because the eCRF database has been locked, 
no further action is necessary.

For fatal or life-threatening events, copies of hospital case reports, autopsy reports, and other 
documents are also to be submitted by e-mail or fax when requested and applicable. 
Transmission of such documents should occur without personal subject identification, 
maintaining the traceability of a document to the subject identifiers.

Additional information may be requested to ensure the timely completion of accurate safety 
reports.

Any medications necessary for treatment of the SAE must be recorded onto the concomitant 
medication section of the subject’s eCRF and the event description section of the SAE form.

Gilead Reporting Requirements
Depending on relevant local legislation or regulations, including the applicable US FDA Code of 
Federal Regulations, the EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC) and relevant updates, and 
other country-specific legislation or regulations, Gilead may be required to expedite to 
worldwide regulatory agencies reports of SAEs, serious adverse drug reactions (SADRs), or 
suspected unexpected serious adverse reactions (SUSARs). In accordance with the 
EU Clinical Trials Directive (2001/20/EC), Gilead or a specified designee will notify worldwide 
regulatory agencies and the relevant IEC in concerned Member States of applicable SUSARs as 
outlined in current regulations.
Assessment of expectedness for SAEs will be determined by Gilead using reference safety 
information specified in the investigator’s brochure or relevant local label as applicable.
All investigators will receive a safety letter notifying them of relevant SUSAR reports associated 
with any study IMP. The investigator should notify the IRB or IEC of SUSAR reports as soon as 
is practical, where this is required by local regulatory agencies, and in accordance with the local 
institutional policy.
7.5.
Clinical Laboratory Abnormalities and Other Abnormal Assessments as 
Adverse Events or Serious Adverse Events
Laboratory abnormalities are usually not recorded as AEs or SAEs. However, laboratory 
abnormalities (eg, clinical chemistry, hematology, urinalysis) independent of the 
underlying medical condition that require medical or surgical intervention or lead to 
investigational medicinal product interruption or discontinuation must be recorded as an AE, as 
well as an SAE, if applicable. In addition, laboratory or other abnormal assessments 
(eg, electrocardiogram, x-rays, vital signs) that are associated with signs and/or symptoms must 
be recorded as an AE or SAE if they meet the definition of an AE (or SAE) as described in 
Sections 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. If the laboratory abnormality is part of a syndrome, record the 
syndrome or diagnosis (ie, anemia) not the laboratory result (ie, decreased hemoglobin).
Severity should be recorded and graded according to the GSI Grading Scale for Severity of 
Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities (Appendix 4) For adverse events associated with 
laboratory abnormalities, the event should be graded on the basis of the clinical severity in the 
context of the underlying conditions; this may or may not be in agreement with the grading of 
the laboratory abnormality.

Toxicity Management
7.6.1.
Management of Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)
Prior to the subject being administered the in-clinic dose the Investigator will verify the subjects 
continued eligibility for dosing, including the absence of DLTs listed below:

ALT elevation as defined as:
ALT ≥ 10 × ULN OR
Confirmed ALT elevation (ie. Grade shift or 2× previous value) with evidence of 
worsened hepatic function (e.g. total bilirubin > 2mg/dL above Baseline, 
serum albumin > 1 g/dL decrease from Baseline)

A confirmed ≥Grade 3 AE considered drug related by the Investigator

A confirmed, clinically significant ≥Grade 3 laboratory abnormality considered study 
drug-related by the investigator

A persistent (≥ 72 hours) ≥Grade 2 flu-like symptom (pyrexia, fatigue, myalgia, arthralgia, 
headache, chills) considered study drug-related by the investigator

A post-dose increase in plasma HIV-1 RNA that fails to resolve to < 50 copies/mL within 
10 days in Cohorts 1 to 3 

A post-dose increase in plasma HIV-1 RNA that fails to resolve to < 200 copies/mL within 
10 days in Cohorts 4 to 9
The designated Safety Evaluation Committee contact will be notified within 24 hours of the 
Investigator’s knowledge of a subject having any of the above DLTs. Dosing must be withheld 
until the Safety Evaluation Committee determines the appropriate next steps, including but not 
limited to additional safety, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic assessments. The SEC may 
also suspend dosing in additional subjects or cohorts.
The SEC may hold or discontinue study drug dosing for a subject if they receive GS-9620 and 
experience one or more DLTs. The SEC may hold or discontinue study drug dosing for a cohort 
if ≥2 out of 6 subjects receiving GS-9620 experience one or more DLTs.

Management of Other Toxicities
Unless otherwise specified in Section 7.6.1, toxicities will be managed according to the 
guidelines below.

All clinical and clinically significant laboratory toxicities will be managed according to 
uniform guidelines detailed in Appendix 3.

Grade 3 and 4 clinically significant laboratory abnormalities should be confirmed by repeat 
testing within 3 calendar days of receipt of results and before investigational medicinal 
product (IMP) discontinuation, unless such a delay is not consistent with good medical 
practice.

Clinical events and clinically significant laboratory abnormalities will be graded according to 
the Table for GSI Grading Scale for Severity of Adverse Events and Laboratory 
Abnormalities (Appendix 4).

When restarting IMP following resolution of the adverse event, the investigational medicinal 
product should be restarted at full dose or modified dose that is dependent upon discussion 
with the Gilead Sciences Medical Monitor.

Any recurrence of the Grade 3 or 4 clinical or clinically significant laboratory adverse event 
following dose interruption mandates permanent discontinuation of IMP.

Any questions regarding toxicity management should be directed to the 
Gilead Sciences Medical Monitor.
7.6.2.1.
Grades 1 and 2 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event
Continue investigational medicinal product at the discretion of the Investigator.
7.6.2.2.
Grade 3 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event

For a Grade 3 clinical event or clinically significant Grade 3 laboratory abnormality 
confirmed by repeat testing, IMP should be withheld until the toxicity returns to Grade 2.

If a laboratory abnormality recurs to Grade 3 following rechallenge with IMP, then IMP
should be permanently discontinued and the subject managed according to local practice. 
7.6.2.3.
Grade 4 Laboratory Abnormality or Clinical Event

For a Grade 4 clinical event or clinically significant Grade 4 laboratory abnormality 
confirmed by repeat testing, IMP should be withheld until the toxicity returns to Grade 2.


For a Grade 4 clinical event or clinically significant Grade 4 laboratory abnormality 
confirmed by repeat testing that is considered related to IMP, IMP should be permanently 
discontinued and the subject managed according to local practice. The subject should be 
followed as clinically indicated until the laboratory abnormality returns to baseline or is 
otherwise explained, whichever occurs first. A clinically significant Grade 4 laboratory 
abnormality that is not confirmed by repeat testing should be managed according to the 
algorithm for the new toxicity grade.
Investigational medicinal product may be continued without dose interruption for a clinically 
non-significant (and therefore not an AE), Grade 4 laboratory abnormality (eg, Grade 4 CK after 
strenuous exercise, or triglyceride elevation that is non-fasting or that can be medically 
managed).
7.7.
Special Situations Reports
7.7.1.
Definitions of Special Situations
Special situation reports include all reports of medication error, abuse, misuse, overdose, reports 
of adverse events associated with product complaints, occupational exposure with an AE, AE in 
an infant following exposure from breastfeeding and pregnancy reports regardless of an 
associated AE.
Medication error is any unintentional error in the prescribing, dispensing, or administration of a 
medicinal product while in the control of the health care provider, subject, or consumer.
Abuse is defined as persistent or sporadic intentional excessive use of a medicinal product by a 
subject.
Misuse is defined as any intentional and inappropriate use of a medicinal product that is not in 
accordance with the protocol instructions or the local prescribing information.
An overdose is defined as an accidental or intentional administration of a quantity of a medicinal 
product given per administration or cumulatively which is above the maximum recommended 
dose as per protocol or in the product labelling (as it applies to the daily dose of the subject in 
question). In cases of a discrepancy in drug accountability, overdose will be established only 
when it is clear that the subject has taken the excess dose(s). Overdose cannot be established 
when the subject cannot account for the discrepancy except in cases in which the investigator has 
reason to suspect that the subject has taken the additional dose(s).
Product complaint is defined as complaints arising from potential deviations in the manufacture, 
packaging, or distribution of the medicinal product.

Instructions for Reporting Special Situations
7.7.2.1.
Instructions for Reporting Pregnancies
Subjects should be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time 
during the study, or if they become pregnant within 4 weeks of last study drug dose. Subjects 
who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the study must report the 
information to the investigator, and seek the investigator’s advice regarding action required with 
study drug immediately. The investigator should counsel the subject regarding the possible 
effects of prior study drug exposure on the fetus and the need to inform the study site of the 
outcome of the pregnancy.
The investigator should report pregnancies in female study subjects that are identified after 
initiation of study medication and throughout the study, including the post study drug follow-up
period, to Gilead PVE using the pregnancy report form within 24 hours of becoming aware of 
the pregnancy.
Refer to Section 7.3 and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism 
of pregnancy reporting.
The pregnancy itself is not considered an AE nor is an induced elective abortion to terminate a 
pregnancy without medical reasons.
Any premature termination of pregnancy (eg, a spontaneous abortion, an induced therapeutic 
abortion due to complications or other medical reasons) must be reported within 24 hours as an 
SAE. The underlying medical reason for this procedure should be recorded as the AE term.
A spontaneous abortion is always considered to be an SAE and will be reported as described in 
the Adverse and Serious Adverse Section 7.1.1 and 7.1.2. Furthermore, any SAE occurring as an 
adverse pregnancy outcome post study must be reported to Gilead PVE.
The subject should receive appropriate monitoring and care until the conclusion of the 
pregnancy. The outcome should be reported to Gilead PVE using the pregnancy outcome report 
form. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study has been completed, the outcome should 
be reported directly to Gilead PVE. Gilead PVE contact information is as follows:

Pregnancies of female partners of male study subjects exposed to Gilead or other study drugs
must also be reported and relevant information should be submitted to or Gilead PVE using the 
pregnancy and pregnancy outcome forms within 24 hours. Monitoring of the subject should 
continue until the conclusion of the pregnancy. If the end of the pregnancy occurs after the study 
has been completed, the outcome should be reported directly to Gilead PVE, 
fax number
 or email 
Refer to Appendix 5 for Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing Potential 
and Contraceptive Requirements.
7.7.2.2.
Reporting Other Special Situations
All other special situation reports must be reported on the special situations report form and
forwarded to or Gilead PVE within 24 hours of the investigator becoming aware of the situation. 
These reports must consist of situations that involve study IMP and/or Gilead concomitant 
medications, but do not apply to non-Gilead concomitant medications.
Special situations involving non-Gilead concomitant medications do not need to be reported on 
the special situations report form; however, for special situations that result in AEs due to a 
non-Gilead concomitant medication, the AE should be reported on the AE form.
Any inappropriate use of concomitant medications prohibited by this protocol should not be
reported as “misuse,” but may be more appropriately documented as a protocol deviation.
Refer to section and the eCRF completion guidelines for full instructions on the mechanism of 
special situations reporting.
All clinical sequelae in relation to these special situation reports will be reported as AEs or SAEs 
at the same time using the AE eCRF and/or the SAE report form. Details of the symptoms and 
signs, clinical management, and outcome will be reported, when available.
Special Situations reports should be sent to Gilead Sciences PVE:

enrolled subjects. The SEC will consist of members not directly involved with the conduct of the 
study. After all subjects in a cohort have received at least three doses (Cohorts 1 to 3, and 6) or 
five doses (Cohorts 4 and 5), the SEC will review safety data from that cohort, including adverse 
events, clinical laboratory results, and plasma HIV-1 RNA, before approving opening of 
enrollment in the next cohort. For Cohort 6, SEC will confer once all subjects have completed 
3 doses of 10 mg GS-9620, and recommend whether or not subjects may proceed with a dose 
escalation to 12 mg starting with Dose 4.
 
A cohort may be suspended if ≥2 out of 6 subjects receiving GS-9620 
experience one or more DLTs considered related to study drug. Please refer to the SEC Charter 
for additional details.

Analysis Schedule
Interim Unblinded Analyses
Prior to the final analysis, selected individuals from Gilead will be unblinded to assess the
interim safety, virology, biomarker, and PK data of GS-9620. This group may consist of at least
one representative from Clinical Research, Biostatistics, Clinical Pharmacology, 
Pharmacovigilance/Epidemiology, Biomarkers, Clinical Virology and may include other 
personnel as necessary.
The access to individual unblinded data (safety, virology, biomarker and PK) will be limited only 
to data relevant for analysis by the function representatives and will be summarized at the group 
level for regulatory documents and external submissions without revealing individual subject 
identification to protect study blind at the subject level. This group will review data (safety, 
virology, biomarker and PK) to support development of new clinical protocols, regulatory 
documents, and conference submissions.
Final analysis
The Sponsor will conduct a final analysis of all data after the last subject in the study completes
the last visit (Day 157) or prematurely discontinues from the study.

Record of all adverse events and other safety parameters (start and end date, and including
causality and severity);

Concomitant medication (including start and end date, dose if relevant; dose changes);

Date of study completion and reason for early discontinuation, if it occurs.
All clinical study documents must be retained by the investigator until at least 2 years or 
according to local laws, whichever is longer, after the last approval of a marketing application in 
an ICH region (ie, United States, Europe, or Japan) and until there are no pending or planned 
marketing applications in an ICH region; or, if no application is filed or if the application is not 
approved for such indication, until 2 years after the investigation is discontinued and regulatory 
authorities have been notified. Investigators may be required to retain documents longer if 
specified by regulatory requirements, by local regulations, or by an agreement with Gilead. The 
investigator must notify Gilead before destroying any clinical study records.
Should the investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to another 
location, Gilead must be notified in advance.
If the investigator cannot provide for this archiving requirement at the study site for any or all of 
the documents, special arrangements must be made between the investigator and Gilead to store 
these records securely away from the site so that they can be returned sealed to the investigator 
in case of an inspection. When source documents are required for the continued care of the 
subject, appropriate copies should be made for storage away from the site.
9.1.6.
Case Report Forms
For each subject consented, an eCRF will be completed by an authorized study staff member 
whose training for this function is documented according to study procedures. eCRF should be 
completed on the day of the subject visit to enable the sponsor to perform central monitoring of 
safety data. Subsequent to data entry, a study monitor will perform source data verification 
within the EDC system. Original entries as well as any changes to data fields will be stored in the 
audit trail of the system. Prior to database lock (or any interim time points as described in the 
clinical data management plan), the investigator will use his/her log in credentials to confirm that 
the forms have been reviewed, and that the entries accurately reflect the information in the 
source documents. The eCRF capture the data required per the protocol schedule of events and 
procedures. System-generated or manual queries will be issued to the investigative site staff as 
data discrepancies are identified by the monitor or internal Gilead staff, who routinely review the 
data for completeness, correctness, and consistency. The site coordinator is responsible for 
responding to the queries in a timely manner, within the system, either by confirming the data as 
correct or updating the original entry, and providing the reason for the update 
(e.g. data entry error). At the conclusion of the trial, Gilead will provide the site with a read-only 
archive copy of the data entered by that site. This archive must be stored in accordance with the 
records retention requirements outlined in Section 9.1.5.

9.1.7.
Investigational Medicinal Product Accountability and Return
Gilead recommends that used and unused IMP supplies be returned to the shipping facility from 
which it came for eventual destruction. The study monitor will provide instructions for return. If 
return is not possible, the study monitor will evaluate each study center’s IMP disposal 
procedures and provide appropriate instruction for destruction of unused IMP supplies. If the site 
has an appropriate standard operating procedure (SOP) for drug destruction as determined by 
Gilead QA, the site may destroy used (empty or partially empty) and unused IMP supplies in 
accordance with that site’s approved SOP. A copy of the site’s approved SOP will be obtained 
for central files.
If IMP is destroyed on site, the investigator must maintain accurate records for all IMP
destroyed. Records must show the identification and quantity of each unit destroyed, the method 
of destruction, and the person who disposed of the IMP. Upon study completion, copies of the 
IMP accountability records must be filed at the site. Another copy will be returned to Gilead.
The study monitor will review IMP supplies and associated records at periodic intervals.
9.1.8.
Inspections
The investigator will make available all source documents and other records for this trial to 
Gilead’s appointed study monitors, to IRBs, or to regulatory authority or health authority 
inspectors.
9.1.9.
Protocol Compliance
The investigator is responsible for ensuring the study is conducted in accordance with the 
procedures and evaluations described in this protocol.
9.2.
Sponsor Responsibilities
9.2.1.
Protocol Modifications
Protocol modifications, except those intended to reduce immediate risk to study subjects, may be 
made only by Gilead. The investigator must submit all protocol modifications to the IRB in 
accordance with local requirements and receive documented approval before modifications can 
be implemented.
9.2.2.
Study Report and Publications
A clinical study report (CSR) will be prepared and provided to the regulatory agency. Gilead will 
ensure that the report meets the standards set out in the ICH Guideline for Structure and Content 
of Clinical Study Reports (ICH E3). Note that an abbreviated report may be prepared in certain 
cases.

Investigators in this study may communicate, orally present, or publish in scientific journals or 
other scholarly media only after the following conditions have been met:

The results of the study in their entirety have been publicly disclosed by or with the consent 
of Gilead in an abstract, manuscript, or presentation form or the study has been completed at 
all study sites for at least 2 years

The investigator will submit to Gilead any proposed publication or presentation along with 
the respective scientific journal or presentation forum at least 30 days before submission of 
the publication or presentation. 

No such communication, presentation, or publication will include Gilead’s confidential 
information (see Section 9.1.4).

The investigator will comply with Gilead’s request to delete references to its confidential 
information (other than the study results) in any paper or presentation and agrees to withhold 
publication or presentation for an additional 60 days in order to obtain patent protection if 
deemed necessary.

Joint Investigator/Sponsor Responsibilities
9.3.1.
Payment Reporting
Investigators and their study staff may be asked to provide services performed under this 
protocol, e.g. attendance at Investigator's Meetings. If required under the applicable statutory and 
regulatory requirements, Gilead will capture and disclose to Federal and State agencies any 
expenses paid or reimbursed for such services, including any clinical trial payments, meal, travel 
expenses or reimbursements, consulting fees, and any other transfer of value.
9.3.2.
Access to Information for Monitoring
In accordance with regulations and guidelines, the study monitor must have direct access to the 
investigator’s source documentation in order to verify the accuracy of the data recorded in the 
eCRF.
The monitor is responsible for routine review of the eCRF at regular intervals throughout the 
study to verify adherence to the protocol and the completeness, consistency, and accuracy of the 
data being entered on them. The monitor should have access to any subject records needed to 
verify the entries on the eCRF. The investigator agrees to cooperate with the monitor to ensure 
that any problems detected through any type of monitoring (central, on site) are resolved.

Notes: 

Toxicity grades for Quantitative and Dipstick Hematuria will be assigned by Covance Laboratory, however for other laboratories, toxicity grades will only be assigned to 
Dipstick Hematuria.

With the exception of lipid tests, any graded laboratory test with a result that is between the LLN and ULN should be assigned Grade 0.

If the severity of a clinical AE could fall under either one of two grades (e.g., the severity of an AE could be either Grade 2 or Grade 3), select the higher of the two grades for 
the AE.

Appendix 5.
Pregnancy Precautions, Definition for Female of Childbearing 
Potential, and Contraceptive Requirements
1) Pregnancy and Contraception Requirements for Males and Females of Childbearing 
Potential
The risks of treatment with GS-9620 during pregnancy have not been evaluated in humans.
Please refer to the latest version of the investigator’s brochure for GS-9620 for the treatment of 
chronic hepatitis B virus and HIV-1 infection for additional information. 
2) Definition of Female of Childbearing Potential
For the purposes of this study, a female subject of childbearing potential is a nonmenopausal
female who has not had a hysterectomy, bilateral oophorectomy, or medically documented
ovarian failure. This definition includes a pubertal female who has not yet started menstruating. 
A woman who has had a tubal sterilization is considered to be of childbearing potential.
A female subject may be considered menopausal in either of the following conditions:

Surgical menopause: Appropriate medical documentation of prior complete bilateral
oophorectomy (ie, surgical removal of the ovaries and occurring at the age at which the
procedure was performed)

Spontaneous menopause: Permanent cessation of previously occurring menses as a result of 
ovarian failure with documentation of hormonal deficiency by a certified health care
provider. The worldwide mean age of spontaneous menopause is 49.24 (SD 1.73) years

A hormonal deficiency should be properly documented in the case of suspected spontaneous 
menopause as follows:
If age ≥54 years and with the absence of normal menses: serum follicle stimulating
hormone (FSH) level elevated to within the postmenopausal range based on the
laboratory reference range where the hormonal assay is performed
If age <54 years and with the absence of normal menses: negative serum or urine 
human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) with concurrently elevated serum FSH level in the
postmenopausal range, depressed estradiol (E2) level in the postmenopausal range, and
absent serum progesterone level, based on the laboratory reference ranges where the
hormonal assays are performed
3) Contraceptive Requirements
Male subjects and female subjects of childbearing potential who engage in heterosexual
intercourse must agree to utilize protocol specified methods of contraception from the 
screening/enrollment visit throughout the study period and for 36 days following the last dose of 
study drug. Female study subjects who are not heterosexually active must provide periodic 
confirmation of continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse and regular pregnancy 
testing while taking GS-9620 or placebo. The investigator will counsel subjects on the protocol
specified method(s) for avoiding pregnancy in case the subject chooses to engage in heterosexual 
intercourse.

Protocol GS–US-382-1450

Amendment 7

Page 130
16 January 2019
Protocol specified contraceptive methods are as follows: (1) a combination of one hormonal
method and one barrier method; or (2) use of an intrauterine device (IUD) or tubal sterilization; 
see Appendix Table 1. Acceptable hormonal methods include injectable progesterone, 
progesterone implants, combination oral contraceptives, transdermal contraceptive patch, and 
vaginal ring. An acceptable barrier method is the male condom. Female subjects must use a 
hormonal method if the partner has a vasectomy. If a subject has undergone tubal sterilization or
has had a Copper T 380A IUD or LNg 20 IUD inserted, no other contraception is needed.
If tubal sterilization is via the Essure procedure, verification of tubal blockage by
hysterosalpingogram (HSP) must be performed approximately 3 months after microinsertion.
Prior to verification, Essure is not considered a reliable form of contraception and the
contraception methods described below must be used. Female subjects who utilize hormonal
contraceptives as one of their birth control methods must have used the same method for at least 
3 months before study dosing.
Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening 
and a negative urine pregnancy test at baseline (Day 1) prior to receiving the first dose of study 
drug. Lactating females must discontinue nursing before IMP administration.

Partner’s vasectomy must be used with a hormonal method.
*
(without spermicide and excluding lambskin)
The investigator will counsel all subjects on the most effective method(s) for avoiding pregnancy 
during the study. 
4) Additional Requirements for Male Subjects and Recommendations for Partners of 
Female Subjects
Male subjects must agree to use condoms (without spermicide and excluding lambskin) during 
heterosexual intercourse and avoid sperm donation while enrolled in the study and for at least 
90 days after administration of the last dose of study drug. Partners of female subjects should be 
encouraged to use condoms during heterosexual intercourse while enrolled in the study.
Use of condoms, with or without spermicide, has been proven to decrease the risk of
transmission of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases. The use of spermicide is not
recommended if the subject or subject’s partner is infected with HIV.

5) Procedures to be Followed in the Event of Pregnancy
Subjects will be instructed to notify the investigator if they become pregnant at any time during 
the study, or if they become pregnant within 30 days or 4 weeks of last study drug dose. Subjects 
who become pregnant or who suspect that they are pregnant during the study must report the 
information to the investigator and discontinue study drug immediately. Subjects whose partner 
has become pregnant or suspects she is pregnant during the study must report the information to 
the investigator. Instructions for reporting pregnancy, partner pregnancy, and pregnancy outcome 
are outlined in Section 7.7.2.1.

INTRODUCTION
This statistical analysis plan (SAP) describes the statistical analysis methods and data 
presentations to be used in tables, figures, and listings (TFLs) in the clinical study report (CSR) 
for Study GS-US-382-1450. This SAP is based on the study protocol Amendment 7 dated 
16 January 2019 and the electronic case report form (eCRF). The SAP will be finalized before 
database finalization for the final analysis. Any changes made after the finalization of the SAP 
will be documented in the CSR.
1.1.
Study Objectives

[GS-9620]) in HIV-1 infected virologically suppressed adults on antiretroviral therapy (ART)

To evaluate the virologic effect of VES as measured by changes in plasma HIV-1 RNA
The secondary objectives of this study are as follows:

To evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of VES

To evaluate the pharmacodynamics (PD) of VES as measured by changes in 
interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) and serum cytokines in whole blood compared to placebo

To evaluate effects of VES on whole blood immune cell activation (CD4 and CD8 T cell, 
NK cell)
The exploratory objectives of this study are as follows:

Study Design
This is a phase 1b, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, multi-cohort dose-escalation 
study with dose cohorts: Cohort 1 (1 mg Dose), Cohort 2 (2 mg Dose), Cohort 3 (4 mg Dose), 
Cohort 4 (6 mg Dose), Cohort 5 (8 mg Dose), Cohort 6 (three administrations of 10 mg Dose, 
followed by seven administrations of 12 mg Dose; Safety Evaluation Committee [SEC] review 
of the 10mg safety data will be required prior to dose escalating to 12mg), and optional Cohort 7
 
 
Two additional optional adaptive cohorts, Cohort 8
 
 and Cohort 9 
 
HIV-1 infected male and non-pregnant, non-lactating female adults who have been virologically 
suppressed (HIV-1 RNA < 50 copies/mL) on ART for ≥12 consecutive months prior to 
screening may be eligible for entry (refer to the protocol for complete inclusion and exclusion 
criteria). Eligible subjects are randomly assigned to 1 of the following 2 treatment groups in a 
6:2 ratio for each cohort. 
.

Cohort 1 (n = 8): Blinded VES 1 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)

Cohort 2 (n = 8): Blinded VES 2 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)

Cohort 3 (n = 8): Blinded VES 4 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)

Cohort 4 (n = 8): Blinded VES 6 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)

Cohort 5 (n = 8): Blinded VES 8 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)

Cohort 6 (n = 8): Blinded VES 10/12 mg (n = 6) vs. Placebo (n = 2)
Central randomization is used. Enrollment will initially be opened for Cohort 1 only. The SEC 
will review study progress, safety and virology results of enrolled subjects. After all subjects in a 
cohort have received at least three doses (Cohorts 1 to 3, and 6) or five doses (Cohorts 4 and 5), 
the SEC will review safety data from that cohort, including adverse events (AEs) and clinical 
laboratory results (including plasma HIV-1 RNA) before approving the next dose escalation. 
A cohort may be suspended if ≥2 out of 6 subjects 
receiving VES experience one or more dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) considered related to 
study drug. Subjects will receive a total of either 6 doses in Cohorts 1 to 3, 10 doses in Cohorts 4

to 6, 
 of their assigned study treatment administered 
once every other week. For all subjects in Cohort 6, Dose 4 (Day 43) will occur after SEC review 
has been completed. If dose escalation is approved by the SEC, subjects in Cohort 6 will receive 
12 mg of VES or placebo from Doses 4 to 10; if dose escalation is not approved by the SEC, 
subjects will continue receiving 10 mg of VES or placebo from Doses 4 to 10.
For Cohorts 1 to 3, dosing visits will occur at Day 1, Day 15, Day 29, Day 43, Day 57, and 
Day 71. For Cohorts 4 to 9, dosing visits will occur at Day 1, Day 15, Day 29, Day 43, Day 57, 
Day 71, Day 85, Day 99, Day 113 and Day 127. 
 
 For Cohorts 1 to 4, subjects will fast for at least 
2 hours before dosing. For Cohorts 5 to 8, subjects will fast overnight (at least 8 hours) before 
dosing. 
 
 The Investigator will verify the subject’s continued eligibility for dosing at post-Baseline 
dosing visits, including the absence of DLTs and (for females of childbearing potential) a 
negative urine pregnancy test, prior to dosing. All doses will be directly administered by blinded 
site staff.
Laboratory analyses (hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis) will be performed weekly for 
Cohorts 1 to 3. For Cohorts 4 to 9, these labs will be collected on dosing days, seven days post 
dose (starting from Dose 4), at end of study, and early study drug discontinuation (ESDD). For 
Cohorts 6 
 these labs will also be collected on Day 2 and two days post dose (starting from 
Dose 5).
 
Urine pregnancy test (for females of childbearing potential) will 
be performed prior to each dose. Vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, respiration rate and 
temperature) will be measured at all dosing visits.
Plasma HIV-1 RNA will be measured at every visit except Pre-Baseline (Day -13). Cell-
associated HIV-1 RNA/DNA (CAVR/CAVD), and plasma HIV-1 RNA by SCA will be 
collected immediately before and two days post Doses 1, 4, 6 and at end of the study (Cohort 1 
to 3); immediately before and two days post Doses 1, 5, 10 and at end of the study (Cohorts 4 to
9).
 
 
Peripheral blood immune cell numbers for T/B/NK/pDC/mDC including: CD4 and CD8 
populations, CD4/CD8 ratio, CD4% and lymphocyte activation (T, B and NK cells) by flow 
cytometry will be collected immediately before and two days post Doses 1, 3, and 6 (Cohorts 1 
to 3), and immediately before and two days post Doses 1, 5, 10 and at end of the study 
(Cohorts 4 to 9). FoxP3+ Treg cells by flow cytometry will be collected immediately before 
Doses 1, 3, and 6 (Cohorts 1 to 3), and immediately before Doses 1, 5 and 10 (Cohort 4 to 9).

Changes in the levels of antiviral cytokines and inflammatory markers by chemiluminescence
will be collected immediately before and 2 days and 7 days after each dose, and at the end of the 
study (Cohorts 1 to 3). For subjects in Cohorts 4 to 9, they will be collected immediately before, 
post dose days 1, 2 and 7 after Doses 1, 4 (only if Cohort 6 subjects receive 12 mg at Dose 4), 5 
and 10. 
 
PBMC intracellular cytokine staining (ICS) for Treg cells will be done immediately before and 
2 days after Doses 1 and 6 for subjects in Cohorts 1 to 3. HIV-specific T-cell responses by 
ELISPOT will be collected at Pre-Baseline/Day -13, immediately before Dose 6 and at the end of 
study for subjects in Cohorts 1 to 3. For subjects in Cohorts 4 to 9, HIV-specific polyfunctional 
T cell ICS and HIV-specific T-cell responses by ELISPOT will be collected at 
Pre-Baseline/Day -13 and at the end of the study. 
 
Whole blood ISG mRNA panel will be performed immediately before and 2 days and 7 days 
after each dose of study drug and at the end of the study (Day 101) (for Cohorts 1 to 3) and 
immediately before and 1, 2 and 7 days after Doses 1, 4 (only if Cohort 6 subjects receive 12 mg 
starting at Dose 4), 5 and 10.
 
Assessments of adverse events, concomitant medications and symptom-directed physical 
examination are performed at each visit.
Blood samples will be collected to determine plasma VES concentrations and plasma ARV 
concentrations at the following time points relative to study drug dosing:
Plasma VES concentrations at the following time points for all cohorts:

Pre-dose (≤5 minutes prior to dosing), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 hours post dose at Day 1; 
then one sample 48 hours post dose at Day 3

If the SEC approves the dose escalation to 12 mg in Cohort 6, starting from Dose 4 and 
onwards, plasma VES concentrations will also be collected on Day 43 (Dose 4): Pre-dose 
(≤5 minutes prior to dosing), 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 12 hours post dose; then one sample 
48 hours post dose at Day 45.
Plasma ARV concentrations: a single trough ARV PK sample will be collected at 
Pre-Baseline/Day -13 (Cohorts 1 to 3) or at Screening, Day 29, Day 57, Day 85 and Day 99 
(Cohort 5), or at Screening, Day 57 and Day 99 (Cohorts 6

TYPE OF PLANNED ANALYSIS
2.1.
Interim Analyses
2.1.1.
Interim Blinded Analyses
SEC will review the progress of the study and perform interim reviews of the safety data in order 
to protect subject welfare and preserve study integrity. To ensure the best interests of the 
participants, the SEC will recommend to the sponsor if the nature, frequency, and severity of 
adverse effects associated with the study treatment warrant the early termination of the study, the 
continuation of the study, or the continuation of the study with modifications.
The initial meeting of the SEC has occurred prior to the first dose of Cohort 1. This meeting 
formally established the SEC and thoroughly acquainted the SEC with the protocol and the SEC 
Charter. Subsequent SEC analyses have been performed after all subjects enrolled in each Cohort 
received at least three doses (Cohorts 1 to 3, and 6) or five doses (Cohorts 4 to 5) to review the 
safety and virology data before approving the opening of enrollment in the next Cohort or dose 
escalation within the same Cohort (Cohort 6).
The SEC’s role and responsibilities and the scope of analysis to be provided to the SEC are 
provided in a mutually agreed upon charter, which defines the SEC membership, meeting 
logistics, and meeting frequency.
2.1.2.
Interim Unblinded Analyses
Prior to the final analysis, selected individuals from Gilead were unblinded to assess the interim 
safety, virology, biomarker, and PK data of VES. This group may consist of at least one 
representative from Clinical Research, Biostatistics, Clinical Pharmacology, 
Pharmacovigilance/Epidemiology, Biomarkers, Clinical Virology and may include other 
personnel as necessary.
The access to individual unblinded data (safety, virology, biomarker and PK) was limited only to 
data relevant for analysis by the function representatives and was summarized at the group level 
for regulatory documents and external submissions without revealing individual subject 
identification to protect study blind at the subject level. This group reviewed data (safety, 
virology, biomarker and PK) to support development of new clinical protocols, regulatory 
documents, and conference submissions.
2.2.
Final Analysis
After all subjects have completed the study, outstanding data queries have been resolved or 
adjudicated as unresolvable, and the data have been cleaned and finalized, the study blind will be
broken and the final analysis of the data will be performed.

GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS FOR DATA ANALYSES
Analysis results will be presented using descriptive statistics. For categorical variables, the 
number and percentage of subjects in each category will be presented; for continuous variables, 
the number of subjects (n), mean, standard deviation (SD) or standard error (SE), median, 
first quartile (Q1), third quartile (Q3), minimum, and maximum will be presented.
All statistical tests will be 2-sided and performed at the 5% significance level unless otherwise 
specified.
By-subject listings will be presented for all subjects in the All Randomized Analysis Set and 
sorted by subject ID number, visit date, and time (if applicable), unless specified otherwise. Data 
collected on log forms, such as AEs, will be presented in chronological order within the subject. 
The treatment group to which subjects were randomized will be used in the listings. Age, sex at 
birth, race, and ethnicity will be included in the listings, as space permits.
3.1.
Analysis Sets
Analysis sets define the subjects to be included in an analysis. Analysis sets and their definitions
are provided in this section. Subjects included in each analysis set will be determined before the 
study blind is broken for analysis. The analysis set will be identified and included as a subtitle of 
each table, figure, and listing. A summary of the number and percentage of subjects in each 
analysis set will be provided by treatment group and in total for all cohorts combined.
3.1.1.
All Randomized Analysis Set
The All Randomized Analysis Set includes all subjects who were randomized into the study.
This is the primary analysis set for by-subject listings.
3.1.2.
Full Analysis set
The Full Analysis Set (FAS) will include all subjects who (1) were randomized into the study 
and (2) have received at least one dose of study drug. Subjects will be grouped according to the 
treatment to which they were randomized. For the FAS, all efficacy data, including data 
collected after the last dose of study drug, will be included, unless specified otherwise. This is 
the primary analysis set for efficacy analyses.
3.1.3.
Safety Analysis Set
The Safety Analysis Set will include all subjects who (1) were randomized into the study and 
(2) have received at least 1 dose of study drug. All the data collected up to 30 days after 
permanent discontinuation of the study drug will be included in the safety summaries, unless 
specified otherwise. Subjects will be grouped according to the treatment they actually received. 
This is the primary analysis set for safety analyses.

3.1.4.
VES Pharmacokinetic Analysis Set
The VES PK Analysis Set will include all subjects who (1) were randomized into the study, (2) 
have received at least 1 dose of active VES, and (3) have at least 1 nonmissing steady state PK 
parameter for VES. This is the primary analysis set for detailed PK analysis of intensive PK 
sampling.
3.2.
Subject Grouping
For analyses based on the All Randomized Analysis Set or the FAS, subjects will be grouped by 
randomized treatment. For other analyses, subjects will be grouped by actual treatment received. 
The actual treatment received will differ from the randomized treatment only when the actual 
treatment received differs from randomized treatment for the entire treatment duration.
Subjects who received placebo in different cohorts will be combined as one placebo group for 
analysis purposes if applicable. The treatment groups for analysis are defined as follows:

Treatment 1: VES 1 mg (in Cohort 1)

Treatment 2: VES 2 mg (in Cohort 2)

Treatment 3: VES 4 mg (in Cohort 3)

Treatment 4: VES 6 mg (in Cohort 4)

Treatment 5: VES 8 mg (in Cohort 5)

Treatment 6: VES 10/12 mg (in Cohort 6)

Treatment 7: Placebo (in all Cohorts)
3.3.
Strata and Covariates
This study does not use a stratified randomization schedule in enrolling subjects. No covariates 
will be included in analyses.
3.4.
Examination of Subject Subgroups
There are no pre-specified subject subsets for efficacy or safety analyses.
3.5.
Multiple Comparisons
All endpoint tests will be done at the significance level of 0.05 with no multiplicity adjustment in 
this proof-of-concept study.

3.6.
Missing Data and Outliers
3.6.1.
Missing Data
A missing datum for a given study analysis window may be due to any of the following reasons:

A visit occurring in the window but data were not collected or were unusable 

A visit not occurring in the window

A subject prematurely discontinuing from the study before reaching the window
In general, values for missing data will not be imputed, unless methods for handling missing data 
are specified.
The handling of missing or incomplete dates for AE onset is described in Section 7.1.6.2, and for 
concomitant medications in Section 7.4.
3.6.2.
Outliers
Outliers will be identified during the data management and data analysis process, but no 
sensitivity analyses will be conducted to evaluate the impact of outliers on efficacy or safety 
outcomes, unless specified otherwise. All data will be included in the data analyses.
3.7.
Data Handling Conventions and Transformations
Laboratory data that are continuous in nature but are less than the lower limit of quantitation
(LLOQ) or above the upper limit of quantitation (ULOQ) will be imputed as follows except for 
urine creatinine:

A value that is 1 unit less than the limit of quantitation (LOQ) will be used to calculate 
descriptive statistics if the datum is reported in the form of “x” (where x is considered the 
LOQ). For example, if the values are reported as < 50 and < 5.0, values of 49 and 4.9, 
respectively, will be used to calculate summary statistics. An exception to this rule is any 
value reported as < 1 or < 0.1, etc. For values reported as < 1 or < 0.1, a value of 0.9 or 0.09, 
respectively, will be used to calculate summary statistics.

A value that is 1 unit above the LOQ will be used to calculate descriptive statistics if the 
datum is reported in the form of “> x” (where x is considered the LOQ). Values with decimal 
points will follow the same logic as above.

The LOQ will be used to calculate descriptive statistics if the datum is reported in the form of 
“≤ x” or “≥ x” (where x is considered the LOQ).
For urine creatinine, a value of “< 1” is handled as a missing value in its summary and the 
calculation of related ratios.

Logarithmic (base 10) transformations will be applied to HIV-1 RNA data for efficacy analyses. 
HIV-1 RNA results of ‘No HIV-1 RNA detected’ and “< 20 cp/mL HIV-1 RNA Detected” will 
be imputed as 19 copies/mL for analysis purposes. 
Biomarker values that are below the limit of quantitation (BLQ) will be presented as “BLQ” in 
the data listing. Values that are BLQ will be treated as LLOQ at both predose and postbaseline 
time points.
Natural logarithm transformation will be used for plasma/blood concentrations and analysis of 
PK parameters. Plasma concentration values that are below BLQ will be presented as “BLQ” in 
the concentration data listing. Values that are BLQ will be treated as 0 at pre-dose time points, 
and one-half the value of the LLOQ at postbaseline time points.
The following conventions will be used for the presentation of summary and order statistics: 

If at least 1 subject has a concentration value of BLQ for the time point, the minimum value 
will be displayed as “BLQ.”

If more than 25% of the subjects have a concentration data value of BLQ for a given time 
point, the minimum and Q1 values will be displayed as “BLQ.”

If more than 50% of the subjects have a concentration data value of BLQ for a given time 
point, the minimum, Q1, and median values will be displayed as “BLQ.”

If more than 75% of the subjects have a concentration data value of BLQ for a given time 
point, the minimum, Q1, median, and Q3 values will be displayed as “BLQ.”

If all subjects have concentration data values of BLQ for a given time point, all order 
statistics (minimum, Q1, median, Q3, and maximum) will be displayed as “BLQ.”

Definition of Study Day
Study day will be calculated from the first dosing date of study drug and derived as follows:

For postdose study days: Assessment Date – First Dosing Date + 1

For days prior to the first dose: Assessment Date – First Dosing Date
Therefore, study day 1 is the day of first dose of study drug administration.

Analysis Visit Windows
The nominal visit as recorded on the CRF or lab date will be used when data are summarized by 
visit. Any data relating to unscheduled visits will not be assigned to a particular visit or time 
point and will not be included in the summary tables, but will be included in the listings. 
However, the following exceptions will be made:

An unscheduled visit prior to the first dosing of study drug may be included in the calculation 
of the baseline value, if applicable.

Unscheduled visits after the first dose of study drug will be included in determining the 
maximum postbaseline toxicity grade.

For subjects who prematurely discontinue from the study, early termination (ET) data will be 
summarized as a separate visit, labeled as “Early Termination Visit”.

Data obtained after the follow-up visit or last dose date plus 30 days (whichever is later) will 
be excluded from the summaries, but will be included in the listings.
3.8.3.
Selection of Data in the Event of Multiple Records in a Window
Depending on the statistical analysis method, single values may be required for each day. For 
example, change from baseline by visit usually requires a single value. 
If multiple valid, nonmissing, numeric measurements exist on the same nominal visit, records 
will be chosen based on the following rules if a single value is needed:

In general, the baseline value will be the last nonmissing value on or prior to the first dosing 
date of study drug, unless specified differently. If multiple measurements occur on the same 
day, the last nonmissing value prior to the time of first dosing of study drug will be 
considered as the baseline value. If these multiple measurements occur at the same time or 
the time is not available, the average (arithmetic or geometric mean, as appropriate) of these 
measurements (for continuous data) will be considered the baseline value.

For postbaseline values:
If there is more than one record on the selected day, the average will be taken (geometric 
mean for HIV-1 RNA and arithmetic mean for others), unless otherwise specified.
If multiple valid, nonmissing, categorical measurements exist on the same nominal visit, records 
will be chosen based on the following rule if a single value if needed:

For baseline, the last available record on or prior to the first dose of study drug will be 
selected. If there are multiple records with the same time or no time recorded on the same 
day, the value with the lowest severity will be selected (eg, normal will be selected over 
abnormal for safety ECG findings).

For postbaseline visits, the value for the scheduled visit only will be used. If multiple records 
are available for a scheduled visit, the most conservative value within that day will be 
selected (eg, abnormal will be selected over normal for safety ECGs).

EFFICACY ANALYSES
As this study is still in phase I of the drug development, p-values from statistical comparisons 
will not be adjusted for multiplicity, so the results should be interpreted with caution. 
6.1.
Primary Efficacy Analysis
6.1.1.
Definition of Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The primary efficacy endpoint is the maximum change from baseline in plasma log10
HIV-1 RNA at any postdose timepoint up to Day 81 for Cohorts 1-3 or Day 134 for Cohorts 4-6.
6.1.2.
Statistical Hypotheses for Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The analysis of maximum change from baseline in plasma log10 HIV-1 RNA at any postdose 
timepoint up to Day 81 for Cohorts 1-3 or Day 134 for Cohorts 4-6 between a VES treatment 
group and pooled placebo group is exploratory in nature and no formal hypothesis testing was 
planned. 
6.1.3.
Analysis of Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The maximum change from baseline in plasma log10 HIV-1 RNA at any postdose timepoint up to 
Day 81 for Cohorts 1-3 or Day 134 for Cohorts 4-6 will be calculated for all subjects in the full
analysis set using available on-treatment HIV-1 RNA data up to Day 81 for Cohorts 1-3 or Day 
134 for Cohorts 4-6, and summarized by treatment group using descriptive statistics (n, mean, 
SD, 95% CI, median, Q1, Q3, minimum, and maximum).
The primary efficacy endpoint will be compared between each active treatment group and the 
pooled placebo group using a Wilcoxon rank sum test at a two-sided 0.05 significant level. 
6.2.

summarized by treatment group using descriptive statistics. The change from baseline in plasma 
log10 HIV-1 RNA at postbaseline visits will be analyzed in the same fashion as that of the 
primary efficacy endpoint.
The number and proportion of subjects with plasma HIV-1 RNA ≥50 copies/mL at any postdose 
timepoint (up to 10 days after each dose for Cohorts 1-3 and 7 days after each dose for Cohorts 
4-6) will be summarized by treatment group and compared between each active treatment group 
and the pooled placebo group using a Fisher’s exact test at a two-sided 0.05 significant level. The 
number and percentage of subjects with HIV-1 RNA in the following categories will be 
summarized:

≥ 50 copies/mL


SAFETY ANALYSES
7.1.
Adverse Events and Deaths
7.1.1.
Adverse Event Dictionary
Clinical and laboratory adverse events (AEs) will be coded using the current version of 
MedDRA. System organ class (SOC), high-level group term (HLGT), high-level term (HLT), 
preferred term (PT), and lower-level term (LLT) will be provided in the AE dataset.
7.1.2.
Adverse Event Severity
Adverse events are graded by the investigator as Grade 1 (mild), Grade 2 (moderate), Grade 3 
(severe), or Grade 4 (life threatening) according to toxicity criteria specified in the protocol. The 
severity grade of events for which the investigator did not record severity will be categorized as 
“missing” for tabular summaries and data listings. The missing category will be listed last in 
summary presentation.
7.1.3.
Relationship of Adverse Events to Study Drug
Study drug related AEs are those for which the investigator selected “Related” on the AE CRF to 
the question of “Related to Study Treatment.” Relatedness will always default to the 
investigator’s choice, not that of the medical monitor. Events for which the investigator did not 
record relationship to study drug will be considered related to study drug for summary purposes. 
However, by-subject data listings will show the relationship as missing.
7.1.4.
Relationship of Adverse Events to Study Procedure
Study procedure related AEs are those for which the investigator selected “Yes” on the AE CRF 
to the question of “Related to Study Procedures.” Relatedness will always default to the 
investigator’s choice, not that of the medical monitor. Events for which the investigator did not 
record relationships to study procedure will be shown as missing from that captured on the CRF 
in by-subject data listings.
7.1.5.
Serious Adverse Events
Serious adverse events (SAEs) will be identified and captured as SAEs if AEs met the definitions 
of SAE that were specified in the study protocol. SAEs captured and stored in the clinical 
database will be reconciled with the SAE database from the Gilead Pharmacovigilance and 
Epidemiology (PVE) Department before database finalization.

Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
7.1.6.1.
Definition of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) are defined as one or both of the following:

Any AEs with an onset date on or after the study drug start date and no later than 30 days 
after permanent discontinuation of study drug

Any AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug
7.1.6.2.
Incomplete Dates
If the onset date of the AE is incomplete and the AE stop date is not prior to the first dosing date 
of study drug, then the month and year (or year alone if month is not recorded) of onset 
determine whether an AE is treatment emergent. The event is considered treatment emergent if 
either of the following 2 criteria is met:

The AE onset and end dates are the same as or after the month and year (or year) of the 
first dosing date of study drug

The AE onset date is the same as or before the month and year (or year) of the date 
corresponding to 30 days after the date of the last dose of study drug
An AE with completely missing onset and stop dates, or with the onset date missing and a stop 
date later than the first dosing date of study drug, will be considered to be treatment emergent.
7.1.7.
Summaries of Adverse Events and Deaths
A brief high-level summary of TEAEs will be provided by treatment for the number and 
percentage of subjects who had the following: any TEAE; any TEAE of Grade 3 or above; any 
serious TEAE; any study drug-related TEAE; any study drug-related serious TEAE; any TEAE 
that led to premature discontinuation of study drug. The treatment-emergent deaths observed 
during the study will also be summarized and included in this table. Treatment-emergent death 
refers to the death occurred between the first dose date and the last dose date plus 30 days, 
inclusive.
Adverse event summaries will provide the number and percentage of subjects with AEs by SOC 
and PT, by treatment based on the Safety Analysis Set as follows:

All AEs

All AEs by severity

AEs of Grade 3 or above

All study-drug related AEs


All SAEs

All study-drug related SAEs

All AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug
Multiple events will be counted only once per subject per treatment in each summary. An AE 
that starts in one treatment period and continues into the following treatment period(s) will be 
counted only in the period in which the AE began. Adverse events will be summarized and listed 
first in alphabetic order of SOC and then by PT in order of descending incidence of the pooled 
treatment groups within each SOC. For summaries by severity, the most severe grade will be 
used for those AEs that occurred more than once in an individual subject per treatment during the 
study. 
In addition to the by-treatment summaries described above, data listings will be provided for the 
following:

All AEs (with a variable indicating whether the event is treatment emergent)

SAEs

Deaths

AEs leading to premature discontinuation of study drug
7.1.8.
Additional Analysis of Adverse Events
No additional analysis of adverse events is planned.
7.2.
Laboratory Evaluations
Laboratory data collected during the study will be analyzed and summarized using both 
quantitative and qualitative methods. Summaries of laboratory data will be provided for the 
Safety Analysis Set and will include data collected up to the last dose of study drug plus 30 days. 
The analysis will be based on values reported in conventional units. When values are BLQ, they 
will be listed as such, and the imputed value will be used for the purpose of calculating summary 
statistics. 
A by-subject listing for laboratory test results will be provided by subject ID number and visit in 
chronological order for hematology, serum chemistry, and urinalysis separately. Values falling 
outside of the relevant reference range and/or having a severity grade of 1 or higher on the 
Gilead Grading Scale for Severity of Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities will be
flagged in the data listings, as appropriate.
No inferential statistics will be generated.

Summaries of Numeric Laboratory Results
Descriptive statistics will be provided by treatment for each laboratory test specified in the study 
protocol as follows:

Baseline values 

Values at each postbaseline time point

Change from baseline at each postbaseline time point
A baseline laboratory value will be defined as the last measurement obtained on or prior to the 
date/time of first dose of study drug. Change from baseline to a postbaseline visit will be defined 
as the visit value minus the baseline value. The mean, median, Q1, Q3, minimum, and maximum 
values will be displayed to the reported number of digits; SD values will be displayed to the 
reported number of digits plus 1.
In the case of multiple values in an analysis window, data will be selected for analysis as 
described in Section 3.8.3.
7.2.2.
Graded Laboratory Values
The Gilead Grading Scale for Severity of Adverse Events and Laboratory Abnormalities will be 
used to assign toxicity grades (0 to 4) to laboratory results for analysis. Grade 0 includes all 
values that do not meet the criteria for an abnormality of at least Grade 1. For laboratory tests 
with criteria for both increased and decreased levels, analyses for each direction (ie, increased, 
decreased) will be presented separately. If there is any lab toxicity grading scale overlapping 
with normal reference ranges (eg, grade 1 scale overlaps with normal reference ranges), 
laboratory values within normal range will not be graded.
7.2.2.1.
Treatment-Emergent Laboratory Abnormalities
Treatment-emergent laboratory abnormalities are defined as values that increase at least 
1 toxicity grade from baseline at any postbaseline time point, up to and including the date of 
last dose of study drug plus 30 days. If the relevant baseline laboratory value is missing, any 
abnormality of at least Grade 1 observed within the time frame specified above will be 
considered treatment emergent.
7.2.2.2.
Summaries of Laboratory Abnormalities
Laboratory data that are categorical will be summarized using the number and percentage of 
subjects in the study with the given response at baseline and each scheduled postbaseline time 
point.


Treatment-emergent laboratory abnormalities

Treatment-emergent Grade 3 and 4 laboratory abnormalities

Treatment-emergent Grade 2, 3 and 4 laboratory abnormalities
For all summaries of laboratory abnormalities, the denominator is the number of subjects with 
non-missing postbaseline values up to 30 days after last dosing date.
A by-subject listing of treatment-emergent Grade 3 or 4 laboratory abnormalities will be 
provided by subject ID number and visit in chronological order. This listing will include all test 
results that were collected throughout the study for the lab test of interest, with all applicable 
severity grades displayed.
7.3.
Body Weight, Height, BMI and Vital Signs
Descriptive statistics will be provided by treatment group for body weight, BMI and vital signs 
as follows:

Baseline value

Values at each postbaseline visit

Change from baseline at each postbaseline visit
In the case of multiple values in an analysis window, data will be selected for analysis as 
described in Section 3.8.3. No formal statistical testing is planned.
A by-subject listing of vital signs will be provided by subject ID number and visit in 
chronological order. In the same manner, a by-subject listing of body weight, height, and BMI
will be provided separately.

7.4.1.
Antiretroviral Medications
Any ARV medications used prior to, during, or after the study (if collected) are all recorded on 
the ARV eCRF. All ARV medications recorded on the ARV eCRF will be coded using the
Gilead-modified World Health Organization (WHO) Drug Dictionary for ARV medication. The 
WHO preferred name and drug code will be attached to the clinical database. All ARV 
medications recorded on the ARV eCRF will be listed. No inferential statistics will be provided.
7.4.2.
Prior Antiretroviral Medications
Prior ARV medications are defined as ARV medications taken on or up to 2 days prior to the 
first dose date of randomized study drug based on ARVs reported on ARV eCRF.
7.4.3.
Concomitant Non-Antiretroviral Medications
Concomitant non-ARV medications (ie, non-ARV medications other than study drug that are 
taken while receiving study drug) will be coded using the WHO Drug Dictionary. The WHO 
preferred name and drug code will be attached to the clinical database. Use of concomitant 
medications will be summarized (number and percentage of subjects) by treatment group, WHO 
drug class and preferred name. Multiple drug use (by preferred name) will be counted only once 
per subject. The summary will be sorted alphabetically by drug class and then by decreasing total 
frequency within a class.
If the start or stop date of non-ARV medications is incomplete, the month and year (or year 
alone, if month is not recorded) of the start or stop date will be used to determine whether the 
non-ARV medications are concomitant or not. The medication is concomitant if the month and 
year of the start or stop (or year of the start or stop, if month is not recorded) of the medication 
does not meet either of the following criteria:

The month and year of start of the medication is after the last dose date

The month and year of stop of the medication is before the first dose date
If the start and stop date of non-ARV medications are complete, the start date is not after the 
last dose date and the stop date is not before the first dose date, or the non-ARV medications are 
marked as ongoing and start date is on or before the last dose date, the non-ARV medications are 
concomitant for the study.
Summaries of non-ARV concomitant medications will be provided for the safety analysis set. 
Subjects with any non-ARV concomitant medications will be listed. No inferential statistics will 
be provided.

noncompartmental methods. The linear/log trapezoidal rule will be used in conjunction with the 
appropriate noncompartmental model, with input values for dose level, dosing time, plasma 
concentration, and corresponding real-time values, based on drug dosing times whenever 
possible.
All predose sample times before time-zero will be converted to 0. 
For area under the curve (AUC), samples BLQ of the bioanalytical assays occurring prior to the 
achievement of the first quantifiable concentration will be assigned a concentration value of 0 to 
prevent overestimation of the initial AUC. Samples that are BLQ at all other time points will be 
treated as missing data in WinNonlin®. The nominal time point for a key event or dosing interval 
(τ) may be used to permit direct calculation of AUC over specific time intervals. The 
appropriateness of this approach will be assessed by the PK scientist on a profile-by-profile 
basis.
Pharmacokinetic parameters such as AUCinf, λz and t1/2 are dependent on an accurate estimation 
of the terminal elimination phase of drug. The appropriateness of calculating these parameters 
will be evaluated upon inspection of PK data on a profile-by-profile basis by the PK scientist.

PK Parameters
Pharmacokinetic parameters will be generated for all subjects for whom parameters can be 
derived. The analyte and parameters will be used to evaluate the PK objectives of the study. The 
primary PK parameters are AUClast, AUCinf, and Cmax of VES.

Statistical Analysis Methods
8.3.1.
General Considerations for Statistical Analyses
Individual subject concentration data and individual subject PK parameters of VES will be listed 
and summarized for subjects in the VES PK analysis set by treatment. Summary statistics 
(n, mean, SD, coefficient of variation [CV(%)], minimum, median, maximum, Q1, Q3) will be 
presented by treatment group. The number of subjects with concentration values BLQ will be 
presented. The geometric mean, geometric mean 95% CI, and the mean and SD of the natural 
log-transformed values will be presented for all PK parameters in addition to the summaries 
mentioned above.
Plasma concentrations over time will be plotted in the semi-logarithmic and linear scale as mean 
± SD, and median (Q1, Q3) by treatment. In addition, individual subject plasma concentrations 
over time will be plotted by treatment group. 
8.3.2.
Dose Proportionality 
If data are available, dose proportionality will be obtained by comparing PK parameters of VES 
across all dose levels for Cohorts 1-6.
Dose proportionality will be evaluated based on the power model and the ANOVA method.
The following PK parameters and dose levels will be included in both the power model and 
ANOVA method:
Day
Doses (mg)
PK Parameters
VES (single dose)
1
1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
AUClast, AUCinf, Cmax

Power Model
The dose proportionality analysis will be addressed in terms of point estimates and CIs of 
statistical model parameters (slopes). The power model has the general equation y = β0 x dose β1
where 
represents the dependent variables, eg, AUClast, AUCinf, and Cmax for VES single-dose. 
The exponent β1 in the model will be assessed by regressing the natural log-transformed PK 
parameter on the natural log-transformed dose{Smith 2000},
log (y) = log (β0) + β1 log (dose)
The population mean slope 
and corresponding 90% confidence interval (CI) will be 
estimated.
The following SASPROC MIXED code will provide the analysis and the 90% CI calculations 
for natural log-transformed Cmax. Similar code will be used for other natural log-transformed 
parameters. 
proc mixed;
  class subjid;
  model lncmax = lndose / ddfm=kr;
  estimate “Slope of log dose” lndose 1/ cl alpha=0.10; 
  make ‘estimates’ out=slope1; 
run;
Due to the exploratory nature of the analysis, no dose proportionality boundaries are explicitly 
stated.
Analysis of Variance (ANOVA)
An ANOVA model using PROC MIXED will be used to estimate the ratio of the PK parameter 
at each dose level to the PK parameter at the reference dose. The parameters will be 
dose-normalized and natural log-transformed prior to analysis. The reference dose is 1 mg, 
determined by the PK scientist. Dose normalization is calculated by dividing each PK parameter 
value by the test dose/reference dose ratio. The ratio of geometric least-squares means (GLSM) 
and the corresponding 90% CI will be estimated for each PK parameter of interest.
The statistical model will include dose as a fixed effect {U.S. Department of Health and Human 
Services Food and Drug Administration Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) 
2003}, {U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Food and Drug Administration Center 
for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) 2001}. The following SAS PROC MIXED code will 
provide the single dose comparison analysis and the 90% CI calculations for the natural 
log-transformed normalized PK parameter Cmax. Similar code will be used for other natural 
log-transformed dose normalized PK parameters. The estimate statements assume that the
treatment is ordered as VES 1 mg, VES 2 mg, VES 4 mg, VES 6 mg, VES 8 mg, VES 10 mg 
and VES 12 mg.

The ESTIMATE statement is used to produce the point estimate and the corresponding 90% CI 
of the difference in PK parameters of interest on a logarithmic scale. The test-to-reference ratio 
and the 90% CI will be calculated by taking the exponential of the point estimate and the 
corresponding lower and upper limits.

Appendix 3.
Programming Specification
1) AGE calculated as follows:
a) AGE (years) is calculated from the number of days between the date of birth (DOB) 
and Day 1 (first dose date),
b) Use the SAS INTCK function to determine the number of “1st-of-month days” 
(eg, January 1st, February 1st, March 1st) between DOB and Day 1 (inclusive),
c) Divide the result in (b) by 12,
d) AGE = the integer of the result in (c),
e) If the DOB and Day 1 have the month in common and the birthday is later in the 
month than the date of Study Day 1, then subtract one from the AGE result above.
For subjects randomized and never dosed with study drug, age will be calculated from the 
date of randomization.
2) All screened subjects refer to all subjects who are screened (ie, with nonmissing 
screening date) and have a screening number. For summaries, the same subject is counted 
only once. DOB and other demographic information such as sex, race, ethnicity, country, 
and initials will be used to identify unique screened subjects.
3) Screen failure subjects are the subjects who are screened and answered “No” for any 
inclusion criteria or “Yes” for any exclusion criteria regardless of which version of 
protocol the subject was consent to. 
4) Subjects in the randomized analysis set are defined as subjects randomized into the study. 
IXRSRAND is the source to determine whether the subject is randomized (ie, subject 
with nonmissing RGMNDTN in the IXRSRAND dataset) and confirmed by the eCRF 
ENROLL dataset (ie, ENROLLYN = “Yes” in ENROLL dataset).
5) Randomized treatment (ie, TRT01P in ADSL) are derived from IXRSRAND, while 
actual treatment received (ie, TRT01A in ADSL) is assigned as the randomized treatment 
if subject took at least 1 dose of study drug and assigned as blank if subject never dosed.
6) In disposition table, the reasons for premature discontinuation are displayed in the order 
as they appear on the eCRF.

7) Body mass index (BMI) and Body Surface Area (BSA)
BMI and BSA will be calculated only at baseline as follows:
BMI = (weight [kg]) / (height [meters]2)
BSA (m2) = SQRT( [Height(cm) × Weight(kg) ] / 3600 )
Baseline height and weight will be used for this calculation. 
8) Please note, “Not Permitted”, “Unknown”, or missing categories will be excluded for 
percentage calculation. Except for Mode of infection (HIV Risk Factors), where 
“Unknown” will be included for percentage calculation, since a subject may fit more than 
1 HIV risk factors, therefore percentage may add to more than 100% and no p-value will 
be generated. 
Subjects with Race = “Not Permitted” will also be excluded to define Race subgroup 
(ie, black vs. nonblack) for efficacy subgroup analysis. 
9) Last Dose Date and Last Study Date
a) Last Dose Date (ie, TRTEDTC, TRTEDT, TR01EDT or TR01EDTC) in ADSL was 
defined in Section 3.8.1.
For subjects with a partial last dosing date (ie, month and year of last dose are 
known), the latest of the dispensing dates of study drug bottles, study drug start dates 
and end dates, and the imputed last dose date [day imputed as 15] will be used as the 
final imputed last dose date. However if dispensing date’s month is after last dose 
date’s month, data query is needed.
If subject died and the death date is complete (ie, not partial date) and before the 
imputed last dose date, the complete death date should be used as the imputed last 
dose date. 
b) Last Study Date is the latest of the study drug start dates and end dates, the clinic visit 
dates, and the laboratory visit dates, including the 30-day follow-up visit date, for 
subjects who prematurely discontinued study or who completed study according to 
the Study Completion eCRF. If study drug start dates or end date is partially missing 
(ie, only year and month are known), the day will be imputed as 15 for the purpose of 
this analysis.
If subject died and the death date is complete (ie, not partial date) and before the 
imputed last study date, the complete death date should be used as the imputed last 
study date.

10) Toxicity Grades:
a) For toxicity grade summaries, include all postbaseline graded results up to 30 days 
after the last dose of study drug, not just those used in by-visit summaries.
b) For glucose grading,the treatment-emergent flag cannot be determined for nonfasting 
glucose (including glucose results without a known fasting status). As a result, these 
records will be excluded from the “Maximum Treatment-emergent Toxicity Grade” 
summary in the “Treatment-emergent Laboratory Abnormalities” or “Treatment-
emergent Grade 3 or 4 Laboratory Abnormalities” summary tables. In addition, 
fasting glucose and nonfasting glucose will be listed as two separate laboratory tests 
in the “Laboratory Abnormalities” and “Grade 3 or 4 Laboratory Abnormalities” 
listings. Only a maximum postbaseline toxicity flag will be displayed and the 
treatment-emergent flag will not be displayed for nonfasting glucose as the 
treatment-emergent flag cannot be determined for nonfasting glucose. 
11) TEAE
Events with Missing Onset Day and/or Month
An AE is treatment emergent if the following 3 criteria are met:

The month and year (or year) of onset date is the same as or after the month and year 
(or year) of the first dose of study drug, and

The month and year (or year) of the onset date is the same as or before the month and 
year (or year) of the 30th day after the date of the last dose of study drug, and

End date is as follows: 
a.
The (complete) end date is on or after the first dose date, or
b. The month and year (or year) of end date is the same or after the month and 
year (or year) of the first dose of study drug, or
c.
End date is completely missing 
Events with Completely Missing Onset Date
An AE with a completely missing onset date is defined as TEAE if end date meets any of 
the criteria specified in 3) above.

12) PK parameters at the individual subject level should be displayed with the following 
reported number of decimal places:

LambdaZ, r2, r2 adj, and CORRXY: 3 decimal places

t1/2, Tlast, Tmax, BEGHOUR, and ENDHOUR: 2 decimal places

AUCtau, AUC0-last, AUCinf, %otAUCexp, Vz/F, CL/F, CLss/F, Cmax, Clast and Ctau: 
1 decimal place

NPOINTS: 0 decimal place

PK concentration data will be reported with 1 decimal place. 
13) Concomitant nonstudy-drug ARV medications (ie, ARV medications other than study 
drug that are taken while receiving study drug) will be flagged in “Nonstudy-Drug 
Antiviral Medication” listing. The logic to define concomitant nonstudy-drug ARV is
similar to concomitant non-ARV Medications (see details in Section 7.4.3)
14) For biomarker data, study day will be calculated from the first dosing date of study drug 
and derived as follows:
For postdose study days: Collection Date – First Dosing Date + 1
For days prior to the first dose: Collection Date – First Dosing Date
Therefore, study day 1 is the day of first dose of study drug administration.
15) The duration of being diagnosed with HIV disease (in years) is calculated as (first dose 
date - date subject was diagnosed with HIV disease)/365.25. The duration of ARV prior 
to study (in years) is calculated as (first dose date - date subject first start ARV)/365.25. 
For the date subject was diagnosed with HIV disease and date subject first start ARV, 
missing dates will be imputed. If only the date is missing, it is imputed as 15. If both 
month and date are missing, it will be imputed as July 1st.
