Pharmacokinetics, Safety, and Efficacy of Elvitegravir/Cobicistat/Emtricitabine/Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Single Tablet Regimen (STR) in Adolescents

The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the steady-state pharmacokinetics (PK) and confirm the dose of the elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF) single-tablet regimen (STR) (Part A) and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF STR through Week 48 (Part B) in HIV-1 infected, antiretroviral (ARV) treatment-naive adolescents.

A total of 50 adolescent participants (12 to \< 18 years of age) will be enrolled to receive EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF as follows:

* Part A: Twelve to 16 eligible participants will be enrolled to evaluate steady-state PK, and confirm the dose, with the intent to enroll at least 4 participants 12 to \< 15 and at least 4 participants 15 to \< 18 years of age.
* Part B: Following confirmation of EVG exposure in at least 12 participants from Part A, 34 to 38 participants in addition to those enrolled in Part A will be enrolled to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antiviral activity of EVG/COBI/FTC/TDF STR.
