Boosted versus unboosted indinavir with zidovudine and lamivudine in nucleoside pre-treated patients: a randomized, open-label trial with 112 weeks of follow-up (HIV-NAT 005).

INTRODUCTION: The use of HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) in a ritonavir (RTV)-boosted form is now common. However, randomized data comparing boosted with unboosted PI strategies are scarce. METHODS: This randomized, open-label trial compared indinavir (IDV) 800 mg three times daily with IDV/RTV 800/100 mg twice daily, both given with zidovudine (AZT)/lamivudine (3TC) twice daily in individuals with at least 3 months previous AZT experience. The primary endpoint was the time-weighted average change in HIV RNA from baseline. Designed as a 48-week study, follow-up continued until week 112. Primary analysis is by intention to treat. RESULTS: One hundred and three patients commenced therapy and are included in the analysis. Patients had a median of 29 months past nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) exposure. Baseline median (interquartile range) log10 HIV RNA was 4.0 (3.3-4.5) and CD4+ T-cell count 166 (40-323) cells/microl. After 112-weeks of study there was no significant difference observed between arms in the mean (SD) change in time-weighted average HIV RNA from baseline (-1.6 [1.1] HIV RNA copies/week/ml three times daily arm; -1.4 [1.1] HIV RNA copies/week/ml twice daily arm; P = 0.3). Both arms were associated with substantial toxicity expressed as serious adverse events and study drug interruptions. The twice daily arm experienced greater dyslipidaemia. Mean (SD) changes in time-weighted CD4+ T-cell count from baseline were similar [88 (84) cells/week/microl three times daily arm; 70 [109] cells/week/microl twice daily arm; P = 0.3). CONCLUSIONS: RTV-boosted IDV 800/100 mg twice daily demonstrated comparable efficacy to unboosted IDV 800 mg three times daily dosing. Both regimens were associated with substantial toxicity. Use of lower doses of RTV-boosted IDV may result in better tolerability without loss of efficacy and warrant further research.

Simultaneous determination of six HIV protease inhibitors (amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir and saquinavir), the active metabolite of nelfinavir (M8) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (efavirenz) in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography.

We report the development of a simple, economical and reliable chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of six HIV protease inhibitors (PIs; amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir and saquinavir), the active metabolite of nelfinavir (M8) and the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI; efavirenz) in human plasma. After extraction from plasma with an ethyl acetate-acetonitrile mixture, the analytes were separated on a phenyl column with a gradient of acetonitrile and phosphate solutions, and detected at three ultraviolet wavelengths. Calibration curves were linear over the range 0.025-15 microg/mL for saquinavir and 0.05-15 microg/mL for the other analytes. The accuracies ranged from -6.9% to +7.6%, and the intra-assay and inter-assay precisions were <9.2 and <11.8%, respectively. Our method, covering most of the PIs and NNRTIs currently used, facilitates ready therapeutic drug monitoring in hospital laboratories.

Determination of atazanavir and other antiretroviral drugs (indinavir, amprenavir, nelfinavir and its active metabolite M8, saquinavir, ritonavir, lopinavir, nevirapine and efavirenz) plasma levels by high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection.

A global method is proposed for therapeutic drug monitoring of atazanavir, a novel protease inhibitor and of all other protease inhibitors (PI) and non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) which are currently used to treat HIV patients. All drugs are extracted after a liquid-liquid extraction and separated on a C18 column with a binary gradient elution except lopinavir which is separated without this gradient. The absorbance is measured at 259 nm except for lopinavir (205 nm) and nevirapine (320 nm). This method is specific, accurate, precise (the intra-day and inter-day imprecision and inaccuracy are lower than 15%) and the limits of quantitation (0.40 mg/L for nevirapine, 0.10 mg/L for indinavir, 0.10 mg/l for M8, 0.05 mg/L for amprenavir, 0.10 mg/L for nelfinavir, 0.10 mg/L for saquinavir, 0.10 mg/L for ritonavir, 0.10 mg/L for efavirenz, 0.10 mg/L for atazanavir and 0.20 mg/L for lopinavir) are consistent with trough plasma concentrations allowing to use this method for therapeutic drug monitoring of PI and NNRTI.

Intracellular measurements of anti-HIV drugs indinavir, amprenavir, saquinavir, ritonavir, nelfinavir, lopinavir, atazanavir, efavirenz and nevirapine in peripheral blood mononuclear cells by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry.

A sensitive and accurate liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometric (LC-MS/MS) method for the intracellular determination of nine antiretroviral drugs in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) is proposed. PBMCs are isolated by density gradient centrifugation using Vacutainer CPT tubes and cell count is performed with a Coulter instrument. Single-step extraction of drugs from PBMCs pellets is performed with MeOH 50% (with clozapine added as internal standard, I.S.) and the supernatant is injected onto a 2.1 mm x 30 mm SymmetryShield 3.5 microm-RP18 column equipped with a 2.1 x 10 mm guard column. Chromatographic separations are performed using a gradient program with a mixture of 2 mM ammonium acetate containing 0.1% formic acid and acetonitrile with 0.1% formic acid. Analytes quantification is performed by electro-spray ionisation-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry using the selected reaction monitoring (SRM) detection mode. The positive mode is used for the HIV protease inhibitors (PIs) indinavir, amprenavir, saquinavir, ritonavir, nelfinavir, lopinavir, atazanavir and the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) nevirapine, and the negative mode is applied for efavirenz. The calibration curves are prepared using blank PBMCs spiked with antiretroviral drugs at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 100 ng/ml of cell extracts and fitted to a quadratic regression model weighted by 1/(concentration)(2). The lower limit of quantification is less than 0.5 ng/ml. The mean extraction recovery for all PIs/NNRTIs is always above 88%. The method is precise, with mean inter-day CV% within 0.6-10.2%, and accurate (range of inter-day deviation from nominal values -7.2 to +8.3%). This analytical method can be conveniently used in clinical research for the assessment of intracellular levels of all PIs/NNRTIs commercially available at present using a simple one-step cell extraction of PBMCs followed by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem triple quadripole mass detection.

Simultaneous determination of HIV protease inhibitors amprenavir, atazanavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir and saquinavir in human plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

We report a precise and accurate method for simultaneous quantification of protease inhibitors (PIs) amprenavir, atazanavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir and saquinavir in plasma. An internal standard was added to samples prior to protein precipitation with acetonitrile followed by addition of ammonium formate buffer. Analysis was by HPLC-MS/MS. Calibration curves were validated over concentration ranges encompassing both subtherapeutic and potentially 'toxic' drug concentrations. Inter- and intra-assay variation were below 11% and PI recovery was above 87%. The bioanalytical method described is successfully applied to measure PI concentrations obtained from clinical pharmacokinetic studies and routine therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM).

A phase II trial of dual protease inhibitor therapy: amprenavir in combination with indinavir, nelfinavir, or saquinavir.

This study evaluated dual protease inhibitor (PI) regimens containing amprenavir (APV) in PI-naive, HIV-1-infected patients over 48 weeks. Patients were randomized to 800-mg APV combined with 800-mg indinavir (IDV), 750-mg nelfinavir (NFV), or 800-mg saquinavir-soft gel capsule (SGV-SGC), all three times daily without nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, or APV given alone for 3 weeks and then with 150-mg lamivudine (3TC) and 300-mg zidovudine (ZDV), twice daily. Dual PI therapy demonstrated substantial antiviral activity and was generally safe and well tolerated. Eight patients had virologic failure; 5 were receiving dual PI therapy and 3 were in the APV/3TC/ZDV arm. The protease I50V mutation characteristic of APV resistance was not observed, although other key PI mutations were selected in 4 patients failing therapy, 2 of whom had PI resistance at baseline.

Simultaneous determination of indinavir, ritonavir and saquinavir in plasma by high-performance liquid chromatography.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Antiretroviral regimens consisting of a combination of protease inhibitors have been shown to be highly potent for the treatment of HIV infection. Therapeutic drug monitoring may ensure optimal drug levels to improve efficacy and minimize side effects. The purpose of this study was to establish a method for simultaneous determination of plasma concentrations of indinavir (IDV), ritonavir (RTV) and saquinavir (SQV) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in a single run. METHODS: A C(18) column and an ultraviolet detector set at 215 nm were used in the HPLC. The mobile phase consisted of phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 5.6) and acetonitrile (55:45, v/v), and the flow rate was 1.5 mL/min. Plasma sample (0.5 mL) containing IDV, RTV, and SQV was alkalinized with ammonia water (10%) and propylparaben added as an internal standard (IS), which was then extracted with methyl tert.-butyl ether. The organic layer was taken and evaporated to dryness. The residue was dissolved in the mobile phase, and the solution was washed with n-hexane followed by HPLC analysis. RESULTS: The calibration curves were linear for each of the 3 drugs in the studied concentration range (0.1 to 5 microg/mL). The extraction recoveries were greater than 90%. One HPLC run takes less than 15 minutes. Analysis of plasma samples of patients treated with combinations of these drugs demonstrated that the calibration curves covered the clinical concentration range. CONCLUSIONS: This study established a simple and accurate method for simultaneous determination of IDV, RTV, and SQV in plasma by isocratic HPLC. The method is practical for therapeutic drug monitoring.
