Mechanism of action
Genvoya contains elvitegravir (integrase inhibitor), cobicistat (CYP3A4 inhibitor/booster), emtricitabine (nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor), and tenofovir alafenamide (nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor). The combination targets multiple steps of HIV replication: integrase catalyzes viral DNA integration into the host genome, while reverse transcriptase inhibitors block conversion of viral RNA to DNA. Cobicistat enhances elvitegravir bioavailability.
