Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the virologic impact of switching treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients with virologic failure to a salvage regimen with or without a 12 week STI prior to the switch

Hypothesis A STI prior to starting a salvage regimen will result in an improved virologic response
Detailed Description: To prospectively determine the virologic impact of switching treatment-experienced HIV-infected patients with virologic failure to a salvage regimen with or without a 12 week STI prior to the switch

Hypothesis By withdrawing ARV drug pressure resistant HIV virus will revert to wild-type In treatment-experienced HIV patients who experience virologic failure a STI prior to starting a salvage regimen will result in an improved virologic response and more prolonged vral suppression compared to immediate switching to a new regime

Interventions

Immediate Switch to Salvage Therapy Patients randomized to the control arm will be switched immediately to a salvage regimen using the information from the treatment history and genotype results

Structured Treatment Interruption Patients randomized to the STI arm will have their present regimen stopped for 12 weeks and will have a genotype repeated in the 12th week A salvage regimen will be started at week 12 using the information from the treatment history and baseline genotype results
