This clinical trial aimed at evaluating changes in neuropsychiatric scales for depression, anxiety, insomnia, and sleep quality in people living with HIV (PLHIV) who initiate antiretroviral therapy (ART) with a regimen of Dolutegravir (DTG) or Darunavir/Cobicistat (DRV/c), both combined with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC).
This clinical trial aims to evaluate changes in neuropsychiatric scale (NPS) scores among Mexican men living with HIV who present baseline NPS symptoms and are naïve to antiretroviral therapy (ART). Participants will initiate either a Dolutegravir (DTG)-based regimen or a Darunavir/Cobicistat (DRV/c)-based regimen, both combined with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate/emtricitabine (TDF/FTC). All patients will undergo a psychiatric evaluation prior to ART initiation. Treatment discontinuation will be considered for participants experiencing an exacerbation of NPS symptoms associated with grade ≥2 adverse events. NPS scores will be assessed and compared at weeks 4 and 12.

Change in neuropsychiatric scales for Insomnia
Change in scales evaluating the severity of neuropsychiatric effects (Insomnia Severity Index (ISI) in patients living with HIV who are naïve to antiretroviral therapy who initiate therapy with Dolutegravir + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine compared to Darunavir/cobicistat + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine at 12 weeks of treatment.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Discontinuation of ART due to Neuropsychiatric adverde effects
Number of patient discontinuation of ART in patients living with HIV who are naïve to antiretroviral therapy who start therapy with Dolutegravir + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine compared to Darunavir/cobicistat + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine after 12 weeks of treatment due to neuropsychiatric.
Time frame: 12 weeks
Risk factor associated with increase in neuropsychiatric scales
Identify the risk factors associated with the change in neuropsychiatric scales in patients living with HIV who are naïve to antiretroviral therapy and who initiate therapy with Dolutegravir + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine compared to Darunavir/cobicistat + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate/Emtricitabine at 12 weeks of treatment.
