Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) is a prodrug of tenofovir, a nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) that, after intracellular activation to tenofovir diphosphate, competitively inhibits HIV and HBV reverse transcriptase and terminates DNA chain elongation. Compared to tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, TAF delivers higher intracellular concentrations of active metabolite in lymphocytes at substantially lower plasma tenofovir exposures, resulting in reduced renal and bone toxicity. It is a cornerstone of modern combination antiretroviral therapy regimens.
