Nucleoside and Nucleotide analogues

Act via 2 mech:
1. Competitive inhibition - competes with dTTP

2. Chain termination - once AZT-TP is incorporated into the growing DNA chain, natural dNTP cannot be added.

(more affinity of these analogues for viral reverse transcriptase)
Acyclovir
Valacyclovir
Famciclovir
Used for HSV/VZV

Acyclovir - poor oral bioavailability, 10x more active against HSV than VZV
Valacyclovir - oral prodrug of acyclovir, 2-5x more bioavailable
Famciclovir - oral prodrug of penciclovir (which is used topically)
Ganciclovir
Valganciclovir
Foscarnet
Used for CMV

Ganciclovir - nucleoside analogue, low oral bioavailability, much better than acyclovir for CMV, granulocytopenia, thrompocytopenia (cut dose)
Valganciclovir - oral prodrug of ganciclovir
Foscarnet - pyrophosphate analogue inhibits DNA polymerase, IV only, nephrotox, anemia, active against acyclovir-resistant HSV and VZV, ganciclovir-resistant CMV
Practical Recommendations for Anti-retroviral therapy
Use 3 drugs at once
Start and stop all at once
Adherence improves virologic response
CyP450 inducers/inhibitors, ALWAYS look up drug interactions
Initial therapy
Typically two nucleoside analogues as cornerstone

Preferred: tenofovir + emtricitabine

Alternative: abacavir + lamivudine
zidovudine + lamivudine

Nucleoside Analogues target viral reverse transcriptase
Tenofovir disoprovil fumarate, (TDF), Viread
prodrug nucleotide analogue, prodrug, 10-50 hr half life, renal, inc creatine, proteinuria, dec bone density

more effective against 3TC/FTC (M184V) resistance than WT

Resistance: K65R sensitizes virus to AZT

Active vs. Hep B. Don't discontinue if co-treating
Lamivudine (3TC), Epivir
Emtricitabine (FTC), Emtriva
1/day
renal
few side effects
rapidly develops M184V resistance
184 mutation sensitizes virus to ziduvodine and tenofovir

Active vs. Hep B as well

Share mutation class M184

Used also for HBV, inhibits DNA Pol at a lower dose. Be sure to increase dose for combo therapy.
Emtricitabine not FDA approved, but also used here (Trivada)
Abacavir (ABC), Ziagen
alcohol dehydrogenase metabolism, ethanol increases AUC

Hypersensitivity rxn in 5%
fever, rash, fatigue, GI, resp, within 6wks, rechallenge may cause severe hypotension and death-- related to HLA-B*5701 genotype

increase cardio disease, less active at high HIV load?
Zidovudine (ZDV, AZT) Retrovir
2x/day
liver glucoronidation, renal excretion
anemia, granulocytopenia, nausea

Good CNS penetration
Used in Prevention of Mother-to-Child Transmission (PMTCT)- IV use during labor and delivery

CSF penetration helps with dementia

Shares mutation class with Stavudine (TAMs- thymidine associated mutations)
Nucleoside side effects?
Lactic acidosis, hepatic fat deposition (steatosis)-- all nrti, esp stavudine, didanosine

peripheral neuropathy-- zalcitabine, stavudine, didanosine

Lipoatrophy, increase lipids-- stavudine

Pancreatitis-- didanosine

Side effects largely due to "d-drugs" ddC zalcitabine and d4t staudine (both fallen out of favor)
Truvada
EpziCom

abacavir + lamivudine QD
zidovudine + lamivudine BiD
zidovudine + lamivudine + abacavir BiD

(all one pill)
Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
Inhibit HIV-1 not 2
Rash is most common side effect
low genetic barrier to resistance- single point mutation causes resistance
Efavirenz (Sustiva)
Induces some p450, Inhibits others

CNS/psychiatric in 50% of patients-- dizziness, somnolence, abnormal dreams, insomnia, generally resolves in 2-4 weeks

Do not give in first trimester of pregnancy

Rash in 27%, mild to moderate
Efavirenz appears in what combination therapy?
Atripla:

emtricitabine + tenofovir + efavirenz

"One pill once a day"

Preferred regimen for naive patients
Nevirapine (Viramune)
2x/day, approved 1x/day if dosed with FTC/TDF in Truvada

Induces P450-- induces its own metabolism.
Use dose escalation

Rash, elevated transaminases, avoid with higher CD4 counts

Also used for Mother to Child Transmission

Alternative preferred for naive patients

Ziduvodine + Lamivudine + Nevirapine
Etravirine (Intelence)
2nd gen
2x/day

hepatic metabolism,Cyp450 inducer/inhibitor

rash and nauasea, no CNS effects (like new and improved efavirenz)

Active vs K103N virus (resistant to EFV, NVP)

Resistance requires multiple NNRTI mutations, Y181C is the key mutation

Use in treatment-experienced patients only, in combination with a protease inhibitor
NNRTI mutations
K103N - Efavirenz and Nevirapine

Y181C - Etravirine and both the above
Protease Inhibitors
target viral protease- create non infectious progeny virions

All inhibit cyp450, some also induce

Ritonavir boosting-- small doses of ritonavir inhibit p450 metabolism, increase trough and AUC of a second PI

boosted PIs have low rate of resistance in breakthrough virus due to high trough concentrations
Initial Therapy Guidelines
2 NRTI or NtRTI plus

Preferred:
Atazanavir/rtv
Darunavir/rtv

Alternative:
Fos-amprenavir/rtv
Lopinavir/rtv
Atazanavir (Reyataz)
