Sponsor's own description

SaDAPT is a pragmatic, randomized, therapeutic-use trial comparing two approaches ("ART first" versus "TB results first") for the timing of ART initiation in PLHIV with presumptive TB, but no signs of central nervous system (CNS) disease, in a routine primary and secondary care setting in southern Africa with regard to HIV viral suppression (VL \<400 copies/mL) 26 weeks after enrolment.
