  • Epivir, INN-Lamivudine
    SCIENTIFIC DISCUSSION This module reflects the initial scientific discussion for the approval of Epivir. This scientific discussion has been updated until 1 July 2005. For information on changes after this date please refer to module 8B. 1. Introduction The Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a retrovirus, which replicates by transcribing its viral RNA genome into DNA via the enzyme reverse transcriptase (RT). The HIV results in a chronic, progressive deterioration in overall cell-mediated immunity with a steady depletion of CD4 T-lymphocytes causing Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). Agents of the family of 2’, -3’-dideoxynucleoside analogues are designed to suppress viral replication in two ways: by competitive inhibition with cellular nucleotides for the binding site of RT and, after incorporation into the growing viral DNA strand, by preventing further elongation of the viral DNA (chain termination). All the currently available nucleoside analogues have dose-limiting toxicities which may limit their long-term use. The development of resistant viruses in patients treated with these nucleosides analogues also demonstrates the pressing need for new agents to widen the choice of therapeutic agents available for treating patients infected with HIV. Lamivudine is a nucleoside analogue developed as a treatment for HIV infection. It has also activity against hepatitis B virus (HBV). It is metabolised intracellularly to the active moiety, lamivudine 5’- triphosphate. Its main mode of action is as a chain terminator of viral reverse transcription. The triphosphate has selective inhibitory activity against HIV-1 and HIV-2 replication in vitro, it is also active against zidovudine-resistant clinical isolates of HIV.

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Fosamprenavir (calcium salt) is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the fosamprenavir (calcium salt) in the solvent of choice. Fosamprenavir (calcium salt) is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF), which should be purged with an inert gas. The solubility of fosamprenavir (calcium salt) in ethanol is approximately 2 mg/ml and approximately 30 mg/ml in DMSO and DMF. Fosamprenavir (calcium salt) is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, fosamprenavir (calcium salt) should first be dissolved in DMSO and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Fosamprenavir (calcium salt) has a solubility of approximately 0.11 mg/ml in a 1:8 solution of DMSO:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description Fosamprenavir (calcium salt) is an orally bioavailable prodrug of the HIV-1 protease inhibitor amprenavir (Item No.

This single-tablet regimen offers a one pill daily regimen with high barrier to resistance (due to the darunavir- cobicistat), with potentially less renal and bone toxicity as compared to regimens that include tenofovir DF; however, it has potential gastrointestinal adverse effects and drug-drug interactions, primarily due to the cobicistat component. In clinical trials, darunavir-cobicistat-tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine was compared to darunavir-cobicistat plus tenofovir DF-emtricitabine as initial therapy for treatment-naïve individuals and found to be equally effective in terms of viral suppression. A switch to the fixed-dose combination tablet was also compared to continuing a boosted protease inhibitor plus tenofovir DF- emtricitabine and again determined to have equivalent efficacy. The FDA has approved darunavir-cobicistat- tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine as a complete regimen for treatment-naïve individuals or treatment- experienced individuals who have a suppressed HIV RNA level on a stable regimen for at least 6 months and no resistance to darunavir or tenofovir. Key Clinical Trials A phase 3 trial in treatment-naïve individuals compared the fixed-dose single-tablet regimen darunavir- cobicistat-tenofovir alafenamide-emtricitabine with the regimen darunavir-cobicistat plus tenofovir DF- emtricitabine emtricitabine [AMBER].

  • TRIZIVIR® (Abacavir Sulfate, Lamivudine, and Zidovudine) Tablets
    NDA 21-205/S-011 Page 4 PRESCRIBING INFORMATION TRIZIVIR® (abacavir sulfate, lamivudine, and zidovudine) Tablets WARNINGS TRIZIVIR contains 3 nucleoside analogues (abacavir sulfate, lamivudine, and zidovudine) and is intended only for patients whose regimen would otherwise include these 3 components. Hypersensitivity Reactions: Serious and sometimes fatal hypersensitivity reactions have been associated with abacavir sulfate, a component of TRIZIVIR. Hypersensitivity to abacavir is a multi-organ clinical syndrome usually characterized by a sign or symptom in 2 or more of the following groups: (1) fever, (2) rash, (3) gastrointestinal (including nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or abdominal pain), (4) constitutional (including generalized malaise, fatigue, or achiness), and (5) respiratory (including dyspnea, cough, or pharyngitis). Discontinue TRIZIVIR as soon as a hypersensitivity reaction is suspected. Permanently discontinue TRIZIVIR if hypersensitivity cannot be ruled out, even when other diagnoses are possible. Following a hypersensitivity reaction to abacavir, NEVER restart TRIZIVIR or any other abacavir-containing product because more severe symptoms can occur within hours and may include life-threatening hypotension and death. Reintroduction of TRIZIVIR or any other abacavir-containing product, even in patients who have no identified history or unrecognized symptoms of hypersensitivity to abacavir therapy, can result in serious or fatal hypersensitivity reactions. Such reactions can occur within hours (see WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS: Information

What Lamivudine/Zidovudine is and what it is used for Lamivudine/Zidovudine is used to treat HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection in adults and children. Lamivudine/Zidovudine contains two active substances that are used to treat HIV infection: lamivudine and zidovudine. Both of these belong to a group of anti-retroviral medicines called nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs). Lamivudine/Zidovudine does not completely cure HIV infection; it reduces the amount of HIV virus in your body, and keeps it at a low level. It also increases the CD4 cell count in your blood. CD4 cells are a type of white blood cell that are important in helping your body to fight infection.
