Pharmacology
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).
HIV-1 attachment inhibitor; fostemsavir is a prodrug hydrolyzed to temsavir, which binds directly to the gp120 subunit of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein and selectively inhibits the interaction between the virus and cellular CD4 receptors, preventing viral attachment and subsequent entry into host cells.
