Participants will be split into two groups, by chance, by a process called "randomisation". One group will continue to receive the anti-HIV medicines already taken according to country-specific routine practice. The second group will change to the new combination of medicine, dolutegravir and lamivudine (with the combination written usually as "DTG/3TC"). Depending on the weight, participants in the second group will be able take the new medicine either as one tablet a day or as a small number of dispersible tablets that are also taken once a day. All children and young people in the study will have regular clinic assessments that are at a similar frequency to the clinic visits that participants would have outside of the study. Blood tests will be performed to check that the medicine is safe and, at some visits, participants and their carers will also be asked to answer some questions on how they feel about taking their medicine. All children and young people will be followed until the last participant who joins the study has been in the study for 96 weeks.\n\nAfter 96 weeks, children who were randomised to the DTG/3TC arm will enter the extended follow-up continuing to receive DTG/3TC.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['CHILD'], 'maximumAge': '15 Years', 'minimumAge': '2 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': "Inclusion Criteria for the Main trial:\n\n1.

Participants remain on DTG/3TC at the end of the randomised phase, and in the opinion of the treating physician, derive ongoing benefit from DTG/3TC\n2. Participants have no access to weight-appropriate DTG/3TC formulation via their national programme\n\nExclusion Criteria for the Main trial :\n\n1. Any previous switch in ART regimen for virological, immunological or clinical treatment failure\n2. Any changes in ART in the last 6 months for reasons other than due to child's growth, drug stock-outs, changes in country guidelines and treatment simplification\n3. Evidence of previous resistance to 3TC or INSTI\n4. Any prior use of regimens consisting of single or dual NRTIs with the exception of a course of zidovudine for PMTCT\n5. Known allergy or contraindications to dolutegravir or lamivudine\n6. Diagnosis of tuberculosis and on anti-tuberculosis treatment; children can be enrolled after successful tuberculosis treatment\n7. Treatment of co-morbidities with drugs which have significant interactions with antiretroviral treatment, requiring dose adjustment of the study drugs (children can be enrolled after the illness resolves)\n8. Randomisation visit more than 12 weeks after the most recent screening visit\n9. Evidence of hepatitis B infection with no protective immunity against hepatitis B: participants positive for HBsAg or HBcAb and negative for HBsAb\n10. Anticipated need for hepatitis C virus therapy with interferon-based regimen prior to the primary endpoint.\n11. Screening ALT equal to 3 or more times the upper limit of normal AND bilirubin equal to 2 or more times the upper limit of normal (ALT ≥3xULN AND bilirubin ≥2xULN)\n12. Screening ALT equal to 5 or more times the upper limit of normal ALT (≥5xULN)\n13. Patients with severe hepatic impairment or unstable liver disease (as defined by the presence of ascites, encephalopathy, coagulopathy, hypoalbuminaemia, oesophageal or gastric varices, or persistent jaundice), or known biliary abnormalities (with the exception of Gilbert's syndrome or asymptomatic gallstones)\n14. Screening creatinine clearance \\<50 mL/min/1.73m2\n15. Patients aged ≥6 years at moderate or high risk of suicide as determined by Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)\n16. Girls who are pregnant or breastfeeding\n17.
