It was originally labelled as UK-427857 during development but was assigned the Maraviroc name as it entered trials. As of early 2007, it was undergoing clinical trials using the Trofile assay to determine participants' tropism.

On April 24 2007 the U.S. Food and Drug Administration advisory panel reviewing maraviroc's New Drug Application unanimously recommended approval for the new drug.[1]

On August 6 2007, the FDA granted accelerated approval of this compound.[2]

On September 24, 2007, Pfizer Inc. announced that the European Commission approved Celsentri (generic name, maraviroc and as Selzentry in the United States). Industry experts did forecast annual Celsentri sales of $500 million by 2011.[3]
