Pharmacology
Darunavir is an HIV-1 protease inhibitor that selectively inhibits cleavage of HIV-1 Gag-Pol polyproteins in infected cells, preventing formation of mature virus particles; cobicistat is a mechanism-based CYP3A inhibitor that increases darunavir systemic exposure without intrinsic antiviral activity.
STRIBILD is a fixed-dose combination of elvitegravir (an integrase strand transfer inhibitor), cobicistat (a CYP3A inhibitor that boosts elvitegravir levels), emtricitabine (a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor), and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor).
