B3.071 - HIV Antivirals Flashcards
what are HIV life cycle drug targets for intervention
Binding and fusion
Reverse transcriptase
Integrase
HIV protease
what does integrase do
clips host cell DNA strand and inserts viral genome
what do early stage targets do
prevent infection of new cells
what is a limitation of early stage targets
they are “one time” targets
what do late target drugs do
prevent production of mature infectious virus, spread of infection in pt and transmission
what drug inhibits binding
maraviroc
what drug inhibits fusion
Enfuvirtide
what drugs inhibit integrase
Raltegravir
Dolutegravir
Elvitegravir
what drugs are nucleoside RT inhibitors
Zidovudine (AZT) Abacavir Tenofovir disoproxil Tenofovir alafenamide Lamivudine Emtricitabine
what are the NNRTIs
Nevirapine Efavirenz Rilpivirine Etravirine Delavirdine
what are metabolism inhbititors
Cobicistat
Ritonavir (also a PI, not clinically used alone)
what are the protease inhibitors
Darunavir Atazanavir Lopinavir Nelfinavir Fosamprenavir Tipranivir Indinavir Saquinavir
what does maraviroc do
chemokine receptor CCR5 antagonist, prevents CCR5:gp120 interaction
what is a tropism assay
test to see if virus uses CCR5 or CXCR4, need to know before giving drug
how is maraviroc given and how is it metabolized
oral;CYP3A4 and MDR1 (pgp) substrate
AEs of maraviroc
cough, muscle pain, diarrhea
Possible severe hepatotoxicity may be preceded by systemic allergic response (black box warning)
what is Enfuvirtide and what does it do
Fusion Inhibitor
Binds to gp41 of HIV-1 envelope, prevents fusion of viral and host cell membranes
what are AEs of Enfuvirtide
most have injection site rxns, nodules and cysts are really common >80%
how is Enfuvirtide given and what is the half life
Subcutaneous, 4 hours
How does Zidovudine work
Thymidine analog that is a competitive substrate for/inhibitor of IHV reverse trancriptase
Inhibits initial replicaiton, stable infection of new cells
Zidovudine pharmacokinetics
well absorbed from GI, widely distributed including CNS (~60% of serum level), rapidly metabolized and excreted
half life of zidovudine
1-3 hours in plasma, intracellularly 3-7 hours
what is zidovudine used for
reduce mother to newborn transmission
Fixed dose combination with lamivudine
how does resistance to zidovudine arise
mutations in RT
what are AEs of zidovudine
common
Bone marrow depression
CNS - headaches, agitation, insomnia
Toxicity enhanced by drugs that compete for glucuronidation
what does abacavir do
Guanosine analog and chain terminator
resistance to abacavir
develops slowly, requires 2-3 concomitant mutations
how is abacavir metabolized
alcohol dehydrogenase
AEs of abacavir
skin rash, hypersensitivity, can be fatal
what do you need to do before administering abacavir and why
HLA testing
HLA*B5701 allele is predictive marker, but ~50% do no react
tenofovir disoproxil and alafenamide what is it and how does it work
after absorption its hydrolized to Acyclic nucleoside phosphonate, a chain terminator. NRTI
What is the difference between tenofovir disoproxil and alafenamide
alafenamide has less renal toxicity and bone density loss compared to disoproxil
describe the dosing of tenofovir
once daily, renal excretion
what are AEs of tenofovir in disoproxil/alafenamide
GI effects - nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
Disoproxil - acute/cumulateive renal toxicity
