Pharmacokinetics of abacavir and its anabolite carbovir triphosphate without and with darunavir/ritonavir or raltegravir in HIV-infected subjects.
Here, we aimed to investigate the pharmacokinetics of abacavir and carbovir triphosphate (CBV-TP) with darunavir/ritonavir 900/100 mg once daily or raltegravir 400 mg twice daily.. HIV-infected subjects on abacavir (600 mg once daily) underwent steady-state pharmacokinetic assessments without and with darunavir/ritonavir or raltegravir. Within-subject changes in plasma and intracellular pharmacokinetic parameters were evaluated by geometric mean ratios (GMRs) and 90% CIs.. A total of 19 patients completed the study. With darunavir/ritonavir (versus abacavir alone), abacavir GMRs (90% CI) were 0.73 (0.66, 0.80), 0.62 (0.50, 0.77) and 0.78 (0.69, 0.87) for area under the curve (AUC), trough concentration (C(trough)) and maximum concentration (C(max)), respectively. With raltegravir, they were 1.03 (0.97, 1.10), 0.83 (0.62, 1.11) and 1.06 (0.95, 1.18), respectively. Intracellular CBV-TP GMRs (90% CI) were 0.88 (0.72, 1.07), 0.68 (0.48, 0.95) and 0.98 (0.79, 1.23) for AUC, C(trough) and C(max), respectively, with darunavir/ritonavir, and 0.96 (0.76, 1.20), 0.57 (0.33, 1.00) and 1.07 (0.85, 1.35), respectively, with raltegravir.. There was a 27% decrease in abacavir plasma exposure with darunavir/ritonavir and no changes with raltegravir. CBV-TP C(trough) was significantly decreased with darunavir/ritonavir (32%) and showed a high inter-individual variability with raltegravir.

Abacavir and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate co-administration results in a nonadditive antiviral effect in HIV-1-infected patients.
To evaluate a potential pharmacodynamic/pharmacokinetic interaction between abacavir (ABC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF).. This randomized trial compared 7 days of ABC or TDF monotherapy, separated by a 35-day washout, with 7 days of ABC + TDF dual-therapy in treatment-naive, HIV-1-infected patients. During each 7-day course, the slope of the phase I viral decay was estimated and steady-state intracellular concentrations of carbovir triphosphate (CBV-TP), deoxyguanosine triphosphate (dGTP), tenofovir diphosphate (TFV-DP) and deoxyadenosine triphosphate (dATP) were determined.. Twenty-one participants were randomized to initial monotherapy with ABC (n = 11) or TDF (n = 10). The addition of TDF did not increase the slope of viral decay compared to ABC alone (-0.15 log10 per day vs. -0.16 log10 per day, respectively). No decrease in CBV-TP or TFV-DP between monotherapy and dual-therapy was observed. However, intracellular dATP concentrations increased between monotherapy and dual-therapy [median dATP (fmol/10 cells) 3293 vs. 4638; P = 0.08], although this difference was significant only among patients randomized to TDF [median dATP (fmol/10 cells) 3238 vs. 4534; P = 0.047]. A lower TFV-DP-to-dATP ratio was associated with reduced viral decay during dual-therapy (rho = -0.529; P = 0.045).. In this study, the viral decay during ABC and TDF dual-therapy was similar to that during ABC therapy alone, suggesting a nonadditive antiviral effect. This negative pharmacodynamic interaction was not explained by changes in CBV-TP or TFV-DP concentrations. Rather, modest increases in endogenous dATP pools were associated with reduced antiviral potency of TDF during co-administration with ABC.

Steady-state pharmacokinetics of abacavir in plasma and intracellular carbovir triphosphate following administration of abacavir at 600 milligrams once daily and 300 milligrams twice daily in human immunodeficiency virus-infected subjects.
Abacavir (ABC) is administered either at 600 mg once daily (ABC 600 mg QD) or 300 mg twice daily (ABC 300 mg BID) in anti-human immunodeficiency virus (anti-HIV) combination therapy. Although ABC plasma pharmacokinetics following each regimen has been well defined, no study has directly compared the regimens with respect to pharmacokinetics of ABC's active intracellular anabolite, carbovir-triphosphate (CBV-TP). In an open-label, two-period, crossover study, 34 HIV-infected male and female subjects stabilized on antiretroviral regimens containing either ABC 600 mg QD or ABC 300 mg BID received their usual doses on days -1 and 1 and then switched regimens for days 2 to 11. Serial blood samples collected on days 1 and 11 were assayed for plasma ABC and intracellular CBV-TP concentrations using validated high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry methods. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using noncompartmental methods. Analysis of variance with a mixed-effect model was performed for treatment and gender comparisons. In 27 evaluable subjects, the regimens provided bioequivalent ABC daily areas under the concentration-time curve from 0 to 24 h (AUC(0-24)) and comparable CBV-TP concentrations at the end of the dosing interval (C(tau)). As expected, ABC QD resulted in 109% higher ABC maximum concentrations of drug in plasma (C(max)) than did ABC BID. ABC QD also resulted in 32% higher CBV-TP AUC(0-24) and 99% higher CBV-TP C(max) than did ABC BID. Females had a 38% higher weight-adjusted ABC AUC(0-24) and 81% higher weight-adjusted CBV-TP AUC(0-24) than did males. Virologic suppression was maintained during regimen switch, and no tolerability differences between regimens were observed. In conclusion, this study showed that ABC 600 mg QD and ABC 300 mg BID regimens led to similar intracellular CBV-TP C(tau) values, thus providing pharmacokinetic support for the interchangeability of these two regimens. Women had higher intracellular CBV-TP exposure than did men.

In vivo platelet activation and platelet hyperreactivity in abacavir-treated HIV-infected patients.
Abacavir (ABC) has been associated with ischaemic cardiovascular events in HIV-infected patients, but the pathogenic mechanisms are unknown. Aim of our study was to assess whether ABC induces in vivo platelet activation and ex vivo platelet hyper-reactivity. In a retrospective, case-control study, in vivo platelet activation markers were measured in 69 HIV-infected patients, before starting therapy and after 6-12 months of either ABC (n=35) or tenofovir (TDF) (n=34), and compared with those from 20 untreated HIV-infected patients. A subgroup of patients was restudied after 28-34 months for ex vivo platelet reactivity. In vivo platelet activation markers were assessed by ELISA or flow cytometry, ex vivo platelet reactivity by light transmission aggregometry (LTA) and PFA-100®. Thein vitro effects of the ABC metabolite, carbovir triphosphate, on aggregation and intra-platelet cGMP were also studied. sPLA2, sPsel and sGPV increased significantly 6-12 months after the beginning of ABC, but not of TDF or of no treatment. Ex vivo platelet function studies showed enhanced LTA, shorter PFA-100® C/ADP closure time and enhanced platelet expression of P-sel and CD40L in the ABC group. The intake of ABC blunted the increase of intraplatelet cGMP induced by nitric oxide (NO) and acutely enhanced collagen-induced aggregation. Preincubation of control platelets with carbovir triphosphate in vitro enhanced platelet aggregation and blunted NO-induced cGMP elevation. In conclusion, treatment with ABC enhances in vivo platelet activation and induces platelet hyperreactivity by blunting the inhibitory effects of NO on platelets. These effects may lead to an increase of ischaemic cardiovascular events.

Anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity, cross-resistance, cytotoxicity, and intracellular pharmacology of the 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurine nucleosides.
Although the approved nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors (NRTI) are integral components of therapy for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection, they can have significant limitations, including the selection of NRTI-resistant HIV-1 and cellular toxicity. Accordingly, there is a critical need to develop new NRTI that have excellent activity and safety profiles and exhibit little or no cross-resistance with existing drugs. In this study, we report that the 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxypurine nucleosides (ADPNs) 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxyadenosine (3'-azido-ddA) and 3'-azido-2',3'-dideoxyguanosine (3'-azido-ddG) exert potent antiviral activity in primary human lymphocytes and HeLa and T-cell lines (50% inhibitory concentrations [IC50s] range from 0.19 to 2.1 microM for 3'-azido-ddG and from 0.36 to 10 microM for 3'-azido-ddA) and that their triphosphate forms are incorporated as efficiently as the natural dGTP or dATP substrates by HIV-1 RT. Importantly, both 3'-azido-ddA and 3'-azido-ddG retain activity against viruses containing K65R, L74V, or M184V (IC50 change of <2.0-fold) and against those containing three or more thymidine analog mutations (IC50 change of <3.5-fold). In addition, 3'-azido-ddG does not exhibit cytotoxicity in primary lymphocytes or epithelial or T-cell lines and does not decrease the mitochondrial DNA content of HepG2 cells. Furthermore, 3'-azido-ddG is efficiently phosphorylated to 3'-azido-ddGTP in human lymphocytes, with an intracellular half-life of the nucleoside triphosphate of 9 h. The present data suggest that additional preclinical studies are warranted to assess the potential of ADPNs for treatment of HIV-1 infection.

Specificity enhancement with LC-positive ESI-MS/MS for the measurement of nucleotides: application to the quantitative determination of carbovir triphosphate, lamivudine triphosphate and tenofovir diphosphate in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells.
Our previous negative ESI-LC-MS/MS method developed for nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI) triphosphate (-TP) measurements in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) encountered some specificity problems for several NRTI-TP and simultaneous endogenous nucleotide triphosphates analysis. As LC-MS/MS offers several possibilities to circumvent such problems, we have investigated the contribution of the positive electrospray ionization mode in enhancing the specificity of the intracellular analyses of triphosphate metabolites of lamivudine, abacavir, and tenofovir. For intracellular NRTI-TP analysis, after disruption of PBMCs, concentrated supernatants were directly injected into the LC-MS/MS system, dimethylhexylamine being used as ion-pairing agent to resolve NRTI-TP. MS/MS detection was performed after positive electrospray ionization. Total run time was 12 min instead of 26 min for NRTI-TP analysis. The validation parameters of the method met the international requirements, and endogenous chromatographic interferences were eliminated. The use of positive ESI, offering a better specificity and a slightly better sensitivity than the negative ESI mode for these compounds, resulted in specificity enhancement and more robust assay methods.

Development of enzymatic assays for quantification of intracellular lamivudine and carbovir triphosphate levels in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from human immunodeficiency virus-infected patients.
In this paper, we describe the development and use of enzymatic assays to determine intracellular lamivudine triphosphate (3TCTP) and carbovir triphosphate (CBVTP) concentrations in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. The assays involve inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase (RT), which normally incorporates radiolabeled deoxynucleoside triphosphates into a synthetic template primer. For the 3TCTP assay, a preincubation procedure was added whereby 3TCTP becomes incorporated before [(3)H]dCTP. At a 1:400 template primer dilution, control product formation was reduced by 88.0% with 0.8 pmol of 3TCTP. Standard 3TCTP inhibition curves were performed using this procedure. For the CBVTP assay, 0.1 pmol of CBVTP inhibited control product formation with and without the use of a preincubation step, so inhibition curves were constructed using both procedures. However, reduced template primer stability with assays using preincubation steps led to a single-incubation procedure being adopted for future studies. The presence of PBMC extracts interfered with the 3TCTP assay. However, this was overcome by the addition of CuSO(4). PBMC extracts did not interfere with the CBVTP assay. Intracellular 3TCTP and CBVTP concentrations were determined in PBMCs from HIV-infected patients over 24 h or greater. Peak concentrations were obtained 6 to 8 h after dosing, and the half-lives of the anabolites suggested the possibility of once-daily dosing. These assays are currently being used for determination of 3TCTP and CBVTP concentrations in clinical studies.
