Results
Introduction
Mean corpuscular volume of each PBMC sample was used to calculate the
intracellular concentration of drug. We observed a significant correlation, p=0.016,
between plasmatic and intracellular concentrations of SMV.
We reported an increase in both plasmatic and intracellular concentration of SMV
when co-administered with DRV/RTV: median of intracellular concentration was
25742 ng/ml (IQR 15975-25742) with DRV/RTV versus 7574 ng/ml (IQR 3785-9144)
and median of plasmatic concentrations was 40014 ng/ml (IQR 7671;40014) versus
1395 ng/ml (IQR 544-2471) without co-administration.

Material and Methods
SPSS was used for statistical analysis.
INTRACELLULAR CONCENTRATION
The mean corpuscolar volume (MCV) for each
PBMC sample was evaluated using a Beckman
Coulter. The intracellular concentration of drugs is
calculated using the number of cell in the sample
and the MCV.
RITONAVIR CONCENTRATION (ng/ml)
We also observed a significant increased in DRV and a trend in RTV plasmatic
concentrations in presence of SMV versus co-administration with other direct
antiviral agents.
DARUNAVIR CONCENTRATION (ng/ml)
Plasma and PBMC samples from 9 patients from
Amedeo di Savoia Hospital (Turin) at one month of
therapy with SMV/sofosbuvir plus DRV/RTV,
dolutegravir, rilpivirine, raltegravir or atazanavir,
were collected and extracted. Analysis for PBMC
concentration were conducted using a validate
UHPLC/MS-MS method with a gradient of
ammonium-acetate 5mM pH 9,5 and acetonitrile at
a flow rate of 0.4 ml/min for the chromatographic
separation. Detection was carry out with a
triplequadrupole mass spectrometric coupled with
electrospray ionization (ESI).
For plasma DAA and ARV quantification, publicated
methods were used [1,2].
1 MONTH SMV PBMC CONCENTRANTION
In the last few years, the development and
introduction of the new direct antiviral agents
(DAAs), have significantly improved the HCV
treatment. Although the efficacy of new regimens
is very high, adverse events and treatment failure
are present and few data are available about the
pharmacokinetic of these drugs in real patients.
This is even more relevant in case of co-infected
patients, because different therapies have to be
combined. Interaction between simeprevir (SMV)
and darunavir (DRV) has already been described
at plasma level, but since it explicates its activity
inside the cells, it could be useful to evaluate its
concentration in the intracellular compartment.
PBMC may represent a valid and easier available
surrogate to hepatocyte cells.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the intracellular
concentrations and the pharmacokinetic of SMV
and to relate it to DRV/ritonavir exposure.

with or without co-administration respectively.
Conclusions
Data about intracellular concentrations could lead to a greater knowledge
of SMV pharmacokinetic, toxicity and adverse events outcoming and
could help in the management of the therapy, especially in case of multitreated patients. We confirm the plasmatic interaction between SMV and
DRV/RTV. The high intracellular SMV concentrations, when coadministered with DRV, could be investigated as the real cause of skin
reactions in some patients. For the future it will be useful to increment the
number of patients analyzed to better evaluate drug-drug interactions,
also with other concomitants drugs.
