Overview

Emtricitabine + tenofovir disoproxil fumarate + raltegravir + losartan is a combination regimen investigated for the treatment of HIV-1 infection, specifically focusing on reducing lymphatic tissue fibrosis and chronic inflammation. The regimen consists of three antiretroviral agents—emtricitabine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors) and raltegravir (an integrase strand transfer inhibitor)—alongside losartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker. While the antiretrovirals suppress viral replication, losartan is included for its anti-fibrotic properties to mitigate the residual immune damage that persists in patients on stable antiretroviral therapy. This specific combination was evaluated in a Phase 4 clinical trial (NCT01852942) led by researchers such as Felipe Garcia.
