HIV Flashcards
Tenofovir Disoproxil (TDF) + emtricitabine (FTC)
Truvada
PrEP - preventative
Bone and kidney toxicity
Tenofovir Alafenamide (TAF + emtricitabine (FTC)
Descovy
PrEP - preventative
New in 2019, less toxicity
Cabotegravir for PrEP
Apretude
PrEP - preventative
1st long-acting injectable integrase inhibitor (q8 weeks)
Nucleoside/nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) MOA
Inhibit conversion of HIV RNA to DNA by blocking the function of reverse transcriptase
Inhibits RT at active site and terminates DNA chain
Second generation NRTI
Abacavir (ABC)
Emtricitabine (FTC)
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)
Third generation NRTI
Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)
NRTI side effects
Inhibition of mitochondrial DNA functon and replication can lead to:
- Lactic acidosis (rare, can occur at any time)
- Hepatic steatosis
- 1st gen associated with: peripheral neuropathy, lipodystrophy - may never resolve
Emtricitabine and Lamivudine general
Current backbone of recommended ART
Interchangable but NEVER use in conjunction
Active against hepB - when discontinuing in HIV + HepB patient, HBV rebound and worsening hepatitis can occur
Emtricitabine and lamivudine adverse effects
Most well tolerated NRTI
Rare: headache, nausea, fatigue
- Require dosing adjustment with CrCl < 50mL/min
Triumeq
Abacavir + lamivudine + dolutegravir
Abacavir AE
Hypersensitivity syndrome: typically w/in 2-6 weeks initiation… fever, abdominal pain, and rash, fatal when re-challenged
Associated with HLA-B*5701 allele (test before starting abacavir)
Other: increased CVD risk in patients with underlying disease
Tenofovir formulations
Nucleotide adenosine 5i-monophosphate derivative
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF): decreases bone mineral density, decrease CrCl over time, fanconi syndrome (rare)
Tenofovir alafenamide (TAF): greater antiviral activity, lower dosing allowing for decrease in AE
TAF > TDF (rather have an A, than a D)
Truvada
TDF + emtricitabine
Descovy
TAF + emtricitabine
Non-Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) MOA
Inhibit conversion of HIV RNA to DNA by blocking function of reverse transcriptase
Binds RT at non-active site
Describe resistance in NNRTI
low barrier of resistance - single point mutation in RT can inactivate all members of class (some exceptions)
NNRTI drug interactions
CYP450 substrates, some also inducers/inhibitors
NNRTI adverse effects
Hypersensitivity reactions (rash), increased liver enzymes, diarrhea, pruritis
neurological/psychiatric (efavirenz»_space;> etravirine»_space; rilpivirine > doravirine)
first generation NNRTIs
Nevirapine
Efavirenz*
Delavirdine
Mod-high potentcy, some treatment failure, most common. resistance mutation: K103N
second generation NNRTIs
Etravirine
Rilpivirine*
Doravirine
higher potency, rarely associated with treatment failure, no effect of K103N
