Data on the combination of darunavir/ritonavir and etravirine both given twice daily in adolescents/young adults are lacking. In this study, we assessed the pharmacokinetics of darunavir/ritonavir 600/100 mg with etravirine 200 mg twice daily in 36 treatment-experienced human immunodeficiency virus-infected adolescents and young adults and found that exposures were comparable to those reported in adults. ...[more]

Project description:BackgroundLimited data are available for once-daily (QD) darunavir (DRV)/ritonavir (r) in the pediatric population. Coadministration of etravirine (ETR) may alter the pharmacokinetics (PK) of DRV. We evaluated the PK interactions between DRV/r (QD) and ETR QD or twice-daily (BID) in children, adolescents, and young adults.MethodsHuman immunodeficiency virus-infected subjects 9 to < 24 years old on optimized background therapy including DRV/r 800/100 mg QD alone or combined with ETR 200 mg BID or ETR 400 mg QD were enrolled. Protocol-defined target drug exposure ranges based on adult data were used to assess the adequacy of each regimen. Intensive 24-hour blood sampling was performed, and PK parameters were determined using noncompartmental analysis.ResultsThirty-one subjects (14 males) completed the study; 16 received DRV/r QD alone (group 1), 6 received DRV/r plus ETR BID (group 2A), and 9 received DRV/r plus ETR QD (group 2B). The geometric mean (90% confidence interval [CI] geometric mean) for DRV area under the curve at 24 hours (AUC24) was 57.9 (49.6-67.6), 74.9 (44.4-126.5), and 66.4 (50.8-86.9) mg × h/L for patients in groups 1, 2A, and 2B, respectively. The increased DRV exposure when coadministered with ETR was not statistically significant. The geometric mean (90% CI geometric mean) of ETR AUC24 was 8.6 (4.4-16.8) and 11.9 (7.5-18.9) mg × h/L for groups 2A and 2B, respectively, with comparable C24.ConclusionsThe results suggest that DRV/r QD with ETR 400 mg QD or 200 mg BID is appropriate and support further evaluation of the safety and efficacy of the once-daily regimen in older children, adolescents, and young adults.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:To investigate the pharmacokinetics of darunavir/ritonavir and raltegravir, in HIV-infected subjects, in both plasma and at the intracellular (IC) site of action. METHODS:HIV-infected patients on antiretroviral therapy received raltegravir 400 mg twice daily for 21 days (period 1); darunavir/ritonavir 800/100 mg once daily was added for 14 days (period 2), and patients were randomized to continue raltegravir twice daily (group 1) or to switch to 800 mg once daily (group 2), then they all stopped raltegravir intake and continued darunavir/ritonavir once daily for 14 days (period 3). Drug concentrations in plasma and cells (peripheral blood mononuclear cell) were measured, and differences in geometric mean ratios (GMR) and 90% confidence intervals (CI) between period 2 versus period 3 and period 2 versus period 1 were assessed. RESULTS:Twenty-four patients completed the study. Group 1 GMR (90% CI) of darunavir area under the curve (AUC) with and without raltegravir was 1.24 (1.13 to 1.45) for plasma and 1.24 (1.07 to 1.73) for cells and for group 2 was 1.14 (1.07 to 1.24) and 1.03 (0.94 to 1.16). GMR (90% CI) of raltegravir AUC without and with darunavir/ritonavir (plasma and cells) for group 1 was 0.90 (0.73 to 1.44) and 1.02 (0.81 to 1.67) and for group 2 was 1.21 (1.03 to 1.77) and 1.27 (1.07 to 1.94). Geometric mean IC to plasma AUC ratios were 5.3 and 4.9 for darunavir in groups 1 and 2 when darunavir/ritonavir was given alone and 4.9 and 5.6 for raltegravir when given alone. These ratios were not altered by the coadministered drug. CONCLUSIONS:No remarkable interactions between darunavir/ritonavir and raltegravir in plasma or cells were seen. Raltegravir IC concentrations are higher than previously reported; the difference being due to modified cell isolation procedures that reduced drug loss caused by washing.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:To describe darunavir (DRV) pharmacokinetics with once-and twice-daily dosing during pregnancy and postpartum in HIV-infected women. DESIGN:Women were enrolled in International Maternal Pediatric Adolescent AIDS Clinical Trials Network Protocol P1026s, a prospective nonblinded study of antiretroviral pharmacokinetics in HIV-infected pregnant women that included separate cohorts receiving DRV/ritonavir dosed at either 800 mg/100 mg once daily or 600 mg/100 mg twice daily. METHODS:Intensive steady-state 12- or 24-hour pharmacokinetic profiles were performed during the second trimester, third trimester, and postpartum. DRV was measured using high-performance liquid chromatography (detection limit: 0.09 ?g/mL). RESULTS:Pharmacokinetic data were available for 64 women (30 once daily and 34 twice daily dosing). Median DRV area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and maximum concentration were significantly reduced during pregnancy with both dosing regimens compared with postpartum, whereas the last measurable concentration (Clast) was also reduced during pregnancy with once daily DRV. DRV AUC with once daily dosing was reduced by 38% during the second trimester and by 39% during the third trimester. With twice daily dosing, DRV AUC was reduced by 26% in both trimesters. The median (range) ratio of cord blood/maternal delivery DRV concentration in 32 paired samples was 0.18 (range: 0-0.82). CONCLUSIONS:DRV exposure is reduced by pregnancy. To achieve DRV plasma concentrations during pregnancy equivalent to those seen in nonpregnant adults, an increased twice daily dose may be necessary. This may be especially important for treatment-experienced women who may have developed antiretroviral resistance mutations.

Project description:We report darunavir, ritonavir, and etravirine pharmacokinetics in cervicovaginal fluid and blood plasma for women from the Gender, Race and Clinical Experience (GRACE) study. Eight women received darunavir-ritonavir (600/100 mg) twice daily (b.i.d.); two also received etravirine (200 mg) b.i.d. Week 4 paired blood plasma and cervicovaginal fluid samples were collected over 12 h. Darunavir and etravirine cervicovaginal fluid exposures were higher than blood plasma exposures; ritonavir cervicovaginal fluid exposure was lower than blood plasma exposure. The high exposures of darunavir and etravirine in cervicovaginal fluid warrant further evaluation of these drugs for use in HIV-1 prevention.

Project description:ObjectivesAntiretroviral therapy during pregnancy is recommended to reduce the risk of mother-to-child transmission of HIV and for maternal care management. Physiological changes during pregnancy can affect pharmacokinetics, potentially altering pharmacological activity. We therefore evaluated the pharmacokinetics of twice-daily (bid) darunavir in HIV-1-infected pregnant women.MethodsHIV-1-infected pregnant women receiving an antiretroviral regimen containing darunavir/ritonavir 600/100 mg bid were enrolled in this study. Total and unbound darunavir and total ritonavir plasma concentrations were obtained over 12 h during the second and third trimesters and postpartum. Total darunavir and ritonavir plasma concentrations were determined using a validated high-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry assay and unbound darunavir was determined using (14) C-darunavir-fortified plasma. Pharmacokinetic parameters were derived using noncompartmental analysis.ResultsData were available for 14 women. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h (AUC12h) for total darunavir was 17-24% lower during pregnancy than postpartum. The AUC12h for unbound darunavir was minimally reduced during pregnancy vs. postpartum. The minimum plasma concentration (Cmin) of total and unbound darunavir was on average 43-86% and 10-14% higher, respectively, during pregnancy vs. postpartum. The antiviral response (< 50 HIV-1 RNA copies/mL) was 33% at baseline and increased to 73-90% during treatment; the percentage CD4 count increased over time. One serious adverse event was reported (increased transaminase). All 12 infants born to women remaining in the study at delivery were HIV-1-negative; four of these infants were premature.ConclusionsTotal darunavir exposure decreased during pregnancy. No clinically relevant change in unbound (active) darunavir occurred during pregnancy, suggesting that no dose adjustment is required for darunavir/ritonavir 600/100 mg bid in pregnant women.

Project description:Rilpivirine (RPV), a recently developed, once daily human immunodeficiency virus non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, is not currently approved for pediatric patients, but is sometimes prescribed for adolescents with multiple treatment failures, for regimen simplification or to minimize toxicity. Darunavir/ritonavir (DRV/r) administered once daily is also increasingly used in adolescents and may alter RPV pharmacokinetics (PK). We evaluated the PK interactions between RPV and DRV/r once daily in adolescents and young adults.Human immunodeficiency virus-infected subjects 12 to <24 years old receiving a stable background therapy including RPV 25?mg once daily without or combined with DRV/r 800/100?mg once daily were enrolled. Intensive 24-hour blood sampling was performed, and PK indices were determined using noncompartmental analysis. Protocol-defined target drug exposure ranges based on adult data were used to assess the adequacy of each regimen.Fifteen subjects receiving RPV without and 14 subjects with DRV/r were enrolled. When dosed without DRV/r, the RPV geometric mean (90% confidence interval) for RPV AUC0-24, Cmax and C24 h were 2.38 ?g h/mL (1.92-2.94), 0.14 ?g/mL (0.12-0.18) and 0.07 ?g/mL (0.03-0.10), respectively, similar to adult values. RPV concentrations were significantly increased with concomitant DRV/r use: RPV AUC24, Cmax and C24 h were 6.74 ?g h/mL (4.89-9.28), 0.39 ?g/mL (0.27-0.57) and 0.23 ?g/mL (0.17-0.32), respectively, well above the target ranges based on adult data. DRV/r PK was not affected by coadministration of RPV.RPV PK in this adolescent population was similar to adults when dosed without DRV/r. DRV/r coadministration increased RPV exposure 2- to 3-fold, indicating that drug-related side effects should be closely monitored.

Project description:The effects of darunavir-ritonavir at 600 and 100 mg twice daily (b.i.d.) alone, 200 mg of etravirine b.i.d. alone, or 600 and 100 mg of darunavir-ritonavir b.i.d. with 200 mg etravirine b.i.d. at steady state on the steady-state pharmacokinetics of maraviroc, and vice versa, in healthy volunteers were investigated in two phase I, randomized, two-period crossover studies. Safety and tolerability were also assessed. Coadministration of 150 mg maraviroc b.i.d. with darunavir-ritonavir increased the area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h (AUC12) for maraviroc 4.05-fold relative to 150 mg of maraviroc b.i.d. alone. Coadministration of 300 mg maraviroc b.i.d. with etravirine decreased the maraviroc AUC12 by 53% relative to 300 mg maraviroc b.i.d. alone. Coadministration of 150 mg maraviroc b.i.d. with etravirine-darunavir-ritonavir increased the maraviroc AUC12 3.10-fold relative to 150 mg maraviroc b.i.d. alone. Maraviroc did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of etravirine, darunavir, or ritonavir. Short-term coadministration of maraviroc with darunavir-ritonavir, etravirine, or both was generally well tolerated, with no safety issues reported in either trial. Maraviroc can be coadministered with darunavir-ritonavir, etravirine, or etravirine-darunavir-ritonavir. Maraviroc should be dosed at 600 mg b.i.d. with etravirine in the absence of a potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) (i.e., a boosted protease inhibitor) or at 150 mg b.i.d. when coadministered with darunavir-ritonavir with or without etravirine.

Project description:The object of this study was to investigate the pharmacokinetics of darunavir-ritonavir and atazanavir-ritonavir once-daily dosing over 72 h (h) following drug intake cessation. Volunteers received darunavir-ritonavir at 800 and 100 mg, respectively, once daily for 10 days, followed by a 7-day washout period, and atazanavir-ritonavir at 300 and 100 mg, respectively, once daily for 10 days. Full pharmacokinetic profiles were assessed for each phase for the 72 h following day 10. Pharmacokinetic parameters were determined over 24 h and to the last measurable concentration by noncompartmental methods. Seventeen subjects completed the study. The geometric mean (GM) terminal elimination half-life to 72 h of darunavir was 6.48 h, which was lower than the 0- to 24-h half-life (10.70 h). The terminal elimination half-life of atazanavir was 6.74 h, which was lower than the 0- to 24-h half-life (13.72 h). All subjects but one had darunavir concentrations higher than the target of 550 ng/ml for protease-resistant HIV isolates (equivalent to 10 times the protein-binding-corrected 50% inhibitory concentration [IC(50)] for wild-type virus) at 24 h postdose, and 14 out of 17 had concentrations higher than the target at 30 h postdose (GM of 1,088 and 851 ng/ml). All subjects had atazanavir concentrations above the suggested minimum effective concentration of 150 ng/ml (equivalent to 10 times the protein-binding-corrected IC(50) for wild-type virus) at 24 and 30 h postdose (GM of 693 and 392 ng/ml). Two of 17 and 5 of 17 subjects were above target at 48 h postdose while on darunavir-ritonavir and atazanavir-ritonavir. Ritonavir half-life to 72 h was 6.84 h with darunavir and 6.07 with atazanavir. This study investigated the pharmacokinetic forgiveness of two boosted protease inhibitors. Although the rates of decline of darunavir and atazanavir slightly increased as ritonavir concentrations declined, most individuals had concentrations 6 h after the end of the ideal dosing interval of 24 h which were above the cutoff used to define therapeutic concentrations.

Project description:To evaluate whether once daily (q.d.) lopinavir/ritonavir is noninferior to twice daily (b.i.d.) dosing in children.International, multicentre, phase II/III, randomized, open-label, noninferiority trial (KONCERT/PENTA18/ANRS150).Clinical centres participating in the PENTA, HIV-NAT and PHPT networks.Children/adolescents with HIV-1 RNA viral load less than 50 copies/ml for at least 24 weeks on lopinavir/ritonavir-containing antiretroviral therapy.Children were randomized to continue lopinavir/ritonavir b.i.d. or change to q.d.Confirmed viral load ?50 copies/ml by 48 weeks (12% noninferiority margin).One hundred seventy-three children were randomized in the KONCERT trial (86 q.d., 87 b.i.d.); 46% men, median (IQR) age 11 (9-14) years, CD4% 33 (27-38)%. By week 48, 97 and 98% of time was spent on q.d. and b.i.d., respectively (one q.d. child lost at week 4). Twelve q.d. vs. seven b.i.d. children had confirmed viral load ?50 copies/ml within 48 weeks; estimated difference in percentage with viral load rebound 6% [90% CI (-2, 14)]. Numbers of children with grade 3/4 adverse events (11 vs. 7) or major resistance mutations (3 vs. 2) were similar, q.d. vs. b.i.d. (both P > 0.3). Among 26 children in an intrasubject lopinavir/ritonavir pharmacokinetic substudy, lower daily exposure (AUC0-24 161 h.mg/l vs. 224 h.mg/l) and lower Clast (1.03 mg/l vs. 5.69 mg/l) were observed with q.d. vs. b.i.d. dosing.Noninferiority for viral load suppression on q.d. vs. b.i.d. lopinavir/ritonavir was not demonstrated. Although results, therefore, do not support routine use of q.d. lopinavir/ritonavir, lack of safety concerns or resistance suggest that q.d. dosing remains an option in selected, adherent children, with close viral load monitoring.

Project description:Fostemsavir is a prodrug of temsavir, a first-in-class attachment inhibitor that binds directly to HIV-1 gp120, preventing initial viral attachment and entry into host CD4+ T cells with demonstrated efficacy in phase 2 and 3. Temsavir is a P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) substrate; its metabolism is mediated by esterase and CYP3A4 enzymes. Drugs that induce or inhibit CYP3A, P-glycoprotein, and BCRP may affect temsavir concentrations. Understanding potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) following fostemsavir coadministration with antiretrovirals approved for HIV-1-infected treatment-experienced patients, including darunavir plus cobicistat (DRV/c) or DRV plus low-dose ritonavir (DRV/r) and etravirine, is clinically relevant. Open-label, single-sequence, multiple-dose, multicohort DDI studies were conducted in healthy participants (n = 46; n = 32). The primary objective was to assess the effects of DRV/r, etravirine, DRV/r plus etravirine, cobicistat, and DRV/c on temsavir systemic exposures; safety was a secondary objective. Compared with fostemsavir alone, coadministration with DRV/r increased the temsavir maximum observed plasma concentration (Cmax), area under the concentration-time curve in one dosing interval (AUCtau), and plasma trough concentration (Ctau) by 52%, 63%, and 88%, respectively, while etravirine decreased the temsavir Cmax, AUCtau, and Ctau by ∼50% each. DRV/r plus etravirine increased the temsavir Cmax, AUCtau, and Ctau by 53%, 34%, and 33%, respectively. Compared with fostemsavir alone, coadministration with cobicistat increased the temsavir Cmax, AUCtau, and Ctau by 71%, 93%, and 136%, respectively; DRV/c increased the temsavir Cmax, AUCtau, and Ctau by 79%, 97%, and 124%, respectively. Fostemsavir with all combinations was generally well tolerated. No dose adjustment is required for fostemsavir when coadministered with strong CYP3A inhibitors, P-glycoprotein inhibitors, and modest inducers, including regimens with DRV/r, DRV/c, cobicistat, etravirine, and DRV/r plus etravirine based on the therapeutic margin for temsavir (ClinicalTrials.gov registration no. NCT02063360 and NCT02277600).
