Pharmacokinetic studies demonstrated that the decrease in drug biotransformation in hepatic failure depends on the metabolic pathways involved. To test whether glucuronidation reactions supported by UDP-glucuronosyltransferases are differentially affected in such conditions, we investigated the in vitro glucuronidation of four selected drugs and xenobiotics (zidovudine, oxazepam, lamotrigine, a...
We examined the relationship between the concentrations of zidovudine in plasma given by continuous intravenous infusion to human immunodeficiency virus-positive pediatric patients and a surrogate marker of outcome (measured by the increase in the number of CD4-positive T cells) as well as drug-mediated toxicity (change in granulocyte count). The return of CD4-positive T cells was most strongly...
High level resistance to 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (AZT, zidovudine or Retrovir) is conferred by the presence of four or five mutations (Met-41-->Leu; Asp-67-->Asn; Lys-70-->Arg; Thr-215-->Tyr or Phe; Lys-219-->Gln) in the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) reverse transcriptase. The order of appearance of these five mutations in asymptomatic patients during therapy has been studied. This has ...
Six patients with AIDS and AIDS related complex (ARC) who developed neuromuscular symptoms associated with vesicular changes in muscle fibres are reported. Two patients in the advanced stages of AIDS, who did not receive zidovudine, developed proximal limb weakness and wasting: both had a necrotising myopathy with an unusual segmental vesicular change of myofibres. There were numerous vesicles ...
The relationships among treatment regimens, plasma human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) RNA levels, and resistance mutations to saquinavir (codons 48 and 90) and zidovudine (codon 215) were examined in a cohort of 144 patients from the AIDS Clinical Trials Group 229 study. After 24-40 weeks of therapy, no patients who had received the two-drug combination (zidovudine plus saquinavir) had only cod...
OBJECTIVE Simple methods for the determination of zidovudine (AZT), stavudine (d4T), lamivudine (3TC) and indinavir (INV) in human plasma by reversed-phase liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection were described and validated. METHOD Solid-liquid extraction procedures were applied to the samples prior to analysis. Chromatography was performed on a C-18 analytical columns and the retenti...
INTRODUCTION Since the emergence of antiretroviral therapy, the survival of patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus has increased. Non-adherence to this therapy is directly related to treatment failure, which allows the emergence of resistant viral strains. METHODS A retrospective descriptive study of the antiretroviral dispensing records of 229 patients from the Center for Health...
BACKGROUND & AIMS Therapy of chronic hepatitis B with HBV-polymerase inhibitors, in particular tenofovir or adefovir, may affect renal function. To assess renal function more accurately in the normal range, we used the recently validated, Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration (CKD-EPI) formula to calculate the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR). METHODS Patient subgroups ...
OBJECTIVE Long-term antiretroviral treatment with nucleoside analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) may result in a cardiomyopathy due to mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion. An intact mitochondrial function is required for the synthesis of intramyocardial pyrimidine nucleotides, which in turn are building blocks of mtDNA. We investigated if NRTI-related cardiomyopathy can be prevente...
In probabilistic sensitivity analyses, analysts assign probability distributions to uncertain model parameters and use Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the sensitivity of model results to parameter uncertainty. The authors present Bayesian methods for constructing large-sample approximate posterior distributions for probabilities, rates, and relative effect parameters, for both controlled and...
