Abstract
The once-daily, single-tablet regimen of emtricitabine/rilpivirine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (Eviplera™ [EU]; Complera™ [US]) provides a convenient option for antiretroviral therapy in treatment-naive patients with HIV-1 infection. In well designed trials in this patient population, rilpivirine plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate was noninferior to efavirenz plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in terms of reducing viral HIV-1 RNA level to <50 copies/mL and was generally better tolerated than efavirenz plus emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate.
