  • Viiv Healthcare Drug Class1,4: Antiretroviral Agent, Integrase
    Brand Name: Tivicay Generic Name: dolutegravir Manufacturer1: ViiV Healthcare Drug Class1,4: Antiretroviral Agent, Integrase Inhibitor Labeled Uses4,5: Labeled1,4: In combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection in adults and children aged 12 years and older and weighing at least 40 kg. Mechanism of Action1,2: Dolutegravir inhibits the catalytic activity of HIV integrase, which is an HIV encoded enzyme required for viral replication. Integrase is one of the three HIV-1 enzymes required for viral replication. Integration of HIV into cellular DNA is a multi-step process. First, the assembly of integrase in a stable complex with the viral DNA occurs. Second, the terminal dinucleotides from each end of the viral DNA are removed by endonucleolytic processing. Lastly, the viral DNA 3' ends are covalently linked to the cellular (target) DNA by strand transfer. The last two processes, which are catalytic, require integrase to be appropriately assembled on a specific viral DNA substrate. Inhibition of integrase by dolutegravir prevents the covalent insertion, or integration, of unintegrated linear HIV DNA into the host cell genome preventing the formation of the HIV provirus. The provirus is required to direct the production of progeny virus, so inhibiting integration prevents propagation of the viral infection. Pharmacokinetics1: Absorption: Tmax 2-3 hours Vd 17.4L T1/2 14 hours Clearance 1.0 L/h Protein Binding >98.9% Bioavailability Not established Metabolism1,2: Dolutegravir is primarily metabolized via UGT1A1 with some contribution from CYP3A. Metabolism occurs via UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT)1A1 (major) and by the hepatic isoenzyme CYP3A (minor).

    Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in Adults and Adolescents with HIV Developed by the DHHS Panel on Antiretroviral Guidelines for Adults and Adolescents – A Working Group of the Office of AIDS Research Advisory Council (OARAC) How to Cite the Adult and Adolescent Guidelines: Panel on Antiretroviral Guidelines for Adults and Adolescents. Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in Adults and Adolescents with HIV. Department of Health and Human Services. Available at https://clinicalinfo.hiv.gov/sites/default/files/guidelines/documents/ AdultandAdolescentGL.pdf. Accessed [insert date] [insert page number, table number, etc. if applicable] It is emphasized that concepts relevant to HIV management evolve rapidly. The Panel has a mechanism to update recommendations on a regular basis, and the most recent information is available on the HIVinfo Web site (http://hivinfo.nih.gov). What’s New in the Guidelines? August 16, 2021 Hepatitis C Virus/HIV Coinfection • Table 18 of this section has been updated to include recommendations regarding concomitant use of fostemsavir or long acting cabotegravir plus rilpivirine with different hepatitis C treatment regimens. June 3, 2021 What to Start • Since the release of the last guidelines, updated data from the Botswana Tsepamo study have shown that the prevalence of neural tube defects (NTD) associated with dolutegravir (DTG) use during conception is much lower than previously reported. Based on these new data, the Panel now recommends that a DTG-based regimen can be prescribed for most people with HIV who are of childbearing potential. Before initiating a DTG-based regimen, clinicians should discuss the risks and benefits of using DTG with persons of childbearing potential, to allow them to make an informed decision.

  • Intolerance of Dolutegravir-Containing Combination Antiretroviral Therapy Regimens in Real-Life Clinical Practice
    CONCISE COMMUNICATION Intolerance of dolutegravir-containing combination antiretroviral therapy regimens in real-life clinical practice Mark G.J. de Boera, Guido E.L. van den Berkb, Natasja van Holtena, Josephine E. Oryszcynb, Willemien Doramaa, Daoud ait Mohab and Kees Brinkmanb Objective: Dolutegravir (DGV) is one of the preferred antiretroviral agents in first-line combination antiretroviral therapy (cART). Though considered to be a well tolerated drug, we aimed to determine the actual rate, timing and detailed motivation of stopping DGV in a real-life clinical setting. Design: A cohort study including all patients who started DGV in two HIV treatment centers in The Netherlands. Methods: All cART-naı¨ve and cART-experienced patients who had started DGV were identified from the institutional HIV databases. Clinical data, including motivation and timing of discontinuation of DGV, were extracted from the patient files. Factors that potentially influenced discontinuation of DGV were compared between patients who stopped or continued DGV by multivariate and Kaplan–Meier analyses. Results: In total, 556 patients were included, of whom 102 (18.4%) were cART-naı¨ve at initiation of DGV. Median follow-up time was 225 days. Overall, in 85 patients (15.3%), DGV was stopped. In 76 patients (13.7%), this was due to intolerability. Insomnia and sleep disturbance (5.6%), gastrointestinal complaints (4.3%) and neu- ropsychiatric symptoms such as anxiety, psychosis and depression (4.3%) were the predominant reasons for switching DGV. In regimens that included abacavir, DGV was switched more frequently (adjusted relative risk 1.92, 95% confidence interval 1.09– 3.38, P log-rank 0.01).

Fighting HIV Infection by Defining Mechanisms ot Remodel Semen-Derived Amyloid Fibrils Abstract Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is a major public health threat worldwide, with 80% of infections acquired through sexual transmission. Semen is the principal vector for the transmission of HIV and several endogenous peptides in semen, including fragments of prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP248-286 and PAP85-120) and semenogelins (SEM1 and SEM2), assemble into amyloid fibrils that promote HIV infection. Semen-derived amyloid fibrils enhance infectivity by capturing HIV virions and facilitating their attachment and fusion to target cells. Deciphering methods to dissolve seminal amyloid fibrils would provide a novel preventative strategy for reducing HIV infection via sexual transmission. Three previously described anti-amyloid agents were used to disassemble and/or counteract seminal amyloid fibrils: 1) Hsp104, an amyloid-remodeling factor from yeast, 2) CLR01, a lysine-specific molecular tweezer, and 3) EGCG, a small molecule polyphenol from green tea. Each strategy was found to antagonize seminal amyloid activity through diverse mechanisms.

While current antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens are generally well-tolerated, risks for side effects and toxicity remain as PLWH must take life-long medications. Antiretroviral drugs impact autophagy, an intracellular proteolytic process that eliminates debris and foreign material, provides nutrients for metabolism, and performs quality control to maintain cell homeostasis. Toxicity and adverse events associated with antiretrovirals may be due, in part, to their impacts on autophagy. A more complete understanding of the effects on autophagy is essential for developing antiretroviral drugs with decreased off target effects, meaning those unrelated to viral suppression, to minimize toxicity for PLWH. This review summarizes the findings and highlights the gaps in our knowledge of the impacts of antiretroviral drugs on autophagy.

    Selected Properties of Elvitegravir Other names GS-9137, JTK-303, EVG, Vitekta® Combination formulation: • Stribild® (elvitegravir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir) Manufacturer Gilead Sciences Pharmacology/Mechanism of Elvitegravir inhibits the strand transfer activity of HIV-1 integrase Action (integrase strand transfer inhibitor; INSTI), an HIV-1 encoded enzyme that is required for viral replication. Inhibition of integrase prevents the integration of HIV-1 DNA into host genomic DNA, blocking the formation of the HIV-1 provirus and propagation of the viral infection. Elvitegravir does not inhibit human topoisomerases I or II. Molecular weight: 447.9 Activity Preclinical pharmacokinetic studies have demonstrated potent anti-HIV activity in vitro with a serum free IC 50 of 0.2 nM and an EC 90 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 12 nM. It has shown additive to synergistic activity with all other antiretrovirals. In vitro effects on HIV-1 clinical isolates: mean EC50 of 0.62 nM. Elvitegravir displays antiviral activity in cell culture against HIV-1 clades A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and O (EC50 values ranged from 0.1 to 1.3 nM) and activity against HIV-2 (EC50 value of 0.53 nM). Elvitegravir does not show inhibition of replication of HBV or HCV in cell culture. Resistance - genotypic HIV-1 isolates with reduced susceptibility to elvitegravir have been selected in cell culture. Reduced susceptibility to elvitegravir was associated with the primary integrase substitutions T66A/I, E92G/Q, S147G, and Q148R. Additional integrase substitutions observed in cell culture selection included D10E, S17N, H51Y, F121Y, S153F/Y, E157Q, D232N, R263K, and V281M.
