چکیده

BACKGROUND Atazanavir plus raltegravir 300/400 mg twice daily is being explored as a ritonavir- and nucleoside-sparing treatment strategy. The pharmacokinetics and safety of this combination in healthy individuals were evaluated. METHODS A total of 22 healthy individuals received raltegravir 400 mg on days 1-5, atazanavir 300 mg on days 6-12 and atazanavir plus raltegravir 300/400 mg on days 13-26, twice daily with a light meal. Serial blood samples were collected 12 h after the morning dose on days 5, 12 and 26; safety assessments, clinical laboratory data and serial electrocardiograms (ECGs) at 0, 2 and 6 h were obtained. RESULTS Raltegravir coadministration reduced atazanavir geometric mean maximum plasma concentration (C(max)), area under the plasma concentration-time curve from 0 to 12 h post-dose (AUC(0-12)) and trough plasma concentration (C(min)) by 11%, 17% and 29%, respectively, compared with atazanavir alone. Geometric mean atazanavir C(min) was 817 ng/ml (range 250-1,550) with raltegravir coadministration. Atazanavir increased raltegravir geometric mean C(max), AUC(0-12) and C(min) by 39%, 54% and 48%, respectively. All adverse events were of mild or moderate intensity. Hyperbilirubinaemia and ECG PR increases with atazanavir were similar to those of atazanavir/ritonavir once daily. No corrected QT prolongations were noted. Mean QRS increase from baseline was 11.0 ms (range 2-25) after receiving atazanavir for 7 days; no further QRS increase was noted and no QRS interval was >120 ms with raltegravir coadministration. No ECG changes were observed with raltegravir alone. CONCLUSIONS Coadministration of atazanavir and raltegravir 300/400 mg twice daily decreased atazanavir AUC(0-12) and C(min) relative to atazanavir alone, and increased AUC(0-12) of raltegravir relative to raltegravir alone. Atazanavir and raltegravir alone and coadministered appeared safe and well-tolerated.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacogenomics of once-daily raltegravir and atazanavir in healthy volunteers.

Atazanavir inhibits UDP-glucuronyl-transferase-1A1 (UGT1A1), which metabolizes raltegravir, but the magnitude of steady-state inhibition and role of the UGT1A1 genotype are unknown. Sufficient inhibition could lead to reduced-dose and -cost raltegravir regimens. Nineteen healthy volunteers, age 24 to 51 years, took raltegravir 400 mg twice daily (arm A) and 400 mg plus atazanavir 400 mg once da...
