Mechanism of action

Bictegravir (BIC) is an integrase strand transfer inhibitor that blocks HIV integration into host DNA. Emtricitabine (FTC) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) are nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors that prevent viral RNA-to-DNA conversion. Together, these three agents target different steps of the HIV replication cycle to achieve potent viral suppression.
