Biological context of SAQUINAVIR

  • Pharmacokinetics of once-daily saquinavir/ritonavir in HIV-infected subjects: comparison with the standard twice-daily regimen [15].
  • The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 protease inhibitor saquinavir inhibits proteasome function and causes apoptosis and radiosensitization in non-HIV-associated human cancer cells [16].
  • There was no significant difference between the groups for median saquinavir Cmin, Cmax, Cltot and AUC (LOPSAQ: 543 ng/ml, 2300 ng/ml, 1020 ml/min and 16 977 ng*h/ml; RITSAQ: 427 ng/ml, 2410 ng/ml, 1105 ml/min and 15 130 ng*h/ml) [17].
  • In these patients, there was no evidence of mutations suggestive of drug resistance, and plasma saquinavir levels were within the expected range [18].
  • HIV phenotype switching during antiretroviral therapy: emergence of saquinavir-resistant strains with less cytopathogenicity [19].

Gene context of SAQUINAVIR

  • METHODS: Twenty healthy subjects received a single oral dose of saquinavir (600 mg) with water (control) and, on a separate occasion, with Seville orange juice (a selective intestinal CYP3A4/5 inhibitor) [29].
  • Among the 6 subjects expressing intestinal CYP3A5, the mean saquinavir CL/F was almost twice as high as for the 14 nonexpressors (36.7 L/h [95% confidence interval (CI), 18.7-54.6 L/h] and 19.3 L/h [95% CI, 11.2-27.4 L/h], respectively; P = .03) [29].
  • Functionally, although these correlates had no impact on HIV-1 production from either X4- or R5-tropic virus, expression correlated significantly with the activity of the HIV-1 protease inhibitor (PI) saquinavir for both P-gp (rho = 0.75; P = 0.0019) and CXCR4 (rho = 0.71; P = 0.0041) [30].
  • Collectively, the cytotoxicity and transport results provide direct evidence that saquinavir is transported by MRP1 and MRP2 [31].
  • Many drugs including saquinavir are substrates of both PGP and CYP3A [32].
