Drug Interactions in the Treatment of Malignancy in HIV-Infected Patients

Abstract: The number of patients with HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) requiring treatment for malignancy is increasing worldwide. Concurrent treatment of HIV and malignancy is complicated by unpredictable drug-drug interactions, which can cause potentially life-threatening toxicities and ineffective treatment of either disease. This article aims to provide a practical approach to drug interactions and their management in this context to help deliver effective and safe treatment of both the malignancy and HIV.

“…The PI, atazanavir, and several tyrosine kinase inhibitors have the potential to inhibit UGT1A1 and alter the exposure of its substrates. 15,[39][40][41] One of the evolving areas in pharmacokinetics is the role of drug transporters in DDIs. The P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter is widely distributed in the body and is directly responsible for the transport and elimination of many ART and antineoplastics, with some of the drugs also having the potential to modulate P-gp activity via induction or inhibition.…”

“…In addition to inhibiting the CYP system, ritonavir and cobicistat also inhibit P-gp, which can lead to increased exposure of antineoplastics that depend on the P-gp for their metabolism, absorption, and/or transport. 15,39,41,42 Hepatic, renal, and biliary clearance of drugs may also be affected by other drug transporters, such as the multidrug resistance-associated proteins, the breast cancer resistance protein, the organic anion-transporting polypeptides, and the organic anion and cation transporters. Evolving data with ARTs and antineoplastics suggest that many of these drugs can be substrates, inducers, and/or inhibitors of these transporters.…”
