Advice

following a full submission:

elvitegravir, cobicistat, emtricitabine, tenofovir disoproxil (as fumarate) film coated tablet (Stribild®) is accepted for use within NHS Scotland.

Indication under review: treatment of human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection in adults aged 18 years and over who are antiretroviral treatment-naïve or are infected with HIV-1 without known mutations associated with resistance to the three antiretroviral agents in Stribild®.

Stribild® was at least as effective as two other recommended antiretroviral regimens in treatment-naïve HIV-1 infected patients.

This SMC advice takes account of the benefits of a Patient Access Scheme (PAS) that improves the cost-effectiveness of Stribild®. This SMC advice is contingent upon the continuing availability of the patient access scheme in NHS Scotland or a list price that is equivalent or lower.
