Pharmacology
Enfuvirtide is an HIV-1 fusion inhibitor that binds to the first heptad-repeat (HR1) domain of the gp41 subunit of the viral envelope glycoprotein, preventing the conformational changes required for fusion of viral and cellular membranes and thereby blocking HIV-1 entry into CD4+ cells.
GENVOYA is a fixed-dose combination of elvitegravir (an integrase strand transfer inhibitor that prevents HIV-1 DNA integration into host genomic DNA), cobicistat (a CYP3A inhibitor that enhances elvitegravir exposure), emtricitabine (a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor that causes viral DNA chain termination), and tenofovir alafenamide (a prodrug converted to tenofovir diphosphate, which inhibits reverse transcriptase through DNA chain termination).
