Elvitegravir



Elvitegravir (EVG) is an investigational drug for the treatment of HIV. It acts as an integrase inhibitor. It is undergoing clinical trials conducted by the pharmaceutical company Japan Tobacco.[1][2]

According to the results of the phase II clinical trial, patients taking once-daily elvitegravir boosted by ritonavir had greater reductions in viral load after 24 weeks compared to individuals randomized to receive a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor.[3]
