Elvitegravir (EVG) is an investigational new drug for the treatment of HIV infection. It acts as an integrase inhibitor. It is undergoing Phase III clinical trial [Gilead Press Release [http://www.gilead.com/pr_1177855 Phase III Clinical Trial of Elvitegravir] July 22, 2008] conducted by the pharmaceutical company Gilead Sciences, which licensed EVG from Japan Tobacco in March 2005. [Gilead Press Release [http://www.gilead.com/pr_687733 Gilead and Japan Tobacco Sign Licensing Agreement for Novel HIV Integrase Inhibitor] March 22, 2005] [cite journal |author=Shimura K, Kodama E, Sakagami Y, "et al" |title=Broad Anti-Retroviral Activity and Resistance Profile of a Novel Human Immunodeficiency Virus Integrase Inhibitor, Elvitegravir (JTK-303/GS-9137) |journal=J Virol |volume= |issue= |pages= |year=2007 |pmid=17977962 |doi=10.1128/JVI.01534-07 |url=http://jvi.asm.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=17977962] [cite journal |author=Stellbrink HJ |title=Antiviral drugs in the treatment of AIDS: what is in the pipeline ? |journal=Eur.

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.
