Therapeutic Drug Monitoring of HIV Protease Inhibitors Using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography With Ultraviolet or Photodiode Array Detection

Abstract: Published data suggest that therapeutic drug monitoring of human immunodeficiency virus protease inhibitors would improve the management of antiretroviral therapy. The authors have developed a high-pressure liquid chromatographic assay allowing simultaneous determination of six protease inhibitors (ritonavir, saquinavir, indinavir, nelfinavir, amprenavir, and lopinavir), using carbamazepine as internal standard. Detection was based on a dual wavelength ultraviolet spectrophotometer and can be improved by the u… Show more

“…Other reports showed a median trough concentration of nelfinavir of 0.96-1.5 Ìg/ ml, depending on dose and combination with saquinavir [20], or of 2.56 Ìg/ml [29]. The combination of nelfinavir with a low dose of ritonavir has been shown to increase nelfinavir exposure by 20-39% in healthy people [31].…”

“…Indinavir given without ritonavir has a half-life of 2 h. The trough concentrations for indinavir under steady Donnerer/Kronawetter/Kapper/Haas/ Kessler state conditions are reported to be 0.06-9.7 Ìg/ml, with a median of 0.64 Ìg/ml, when given in combination with ritonavir as a pharmacoenhancer [20]. Others reported a mean trough concentration for indinavir of 0.48 Ìg/ml [28] or around 1.0 Ìg/ml [18].…”

“…In order to successfully conduct any therapeutic drug monitoring, a suitable analytical procedure must be available. Several assay methods are available for determination of ritonavir and quinine separately in biological fluids [7][8][9][10] but there is no reported method for the simultaneous determination of both drugs. Several studies have established associations between plasma concentrations of protease inhibitors and their antiviral effects [11][12][13], suggesting a role for therapeutic monitoring of these drugs.…”

“…CYP 450 is responsible for numerous interactions between PIs and other drugs. Serum concentrations are decreased by coadministration of CYP3A4 inducers or increased by CYP3A4 inhibitors (3). Certain combinations Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is a helpful tool to avoid supratherapeutic antiretroviral serum levels, which might cause side effects (5-7).…”
