COMBINATION OF TWO NUCLEOSIDE ANALOGS WITH EITHER A PROTEASE INHIBITOR OR AN NNRTI. FIRST TREATMENT GIVEN TO PATIENTS, SHOULD KEEP VIRAL LOAD AT < 50 COPIES/ML, WHICH CAN PREVENT EMERGENCE OF DRUG-RESISTANT MUTANTS. IF FIRST HAART FAILS, SUBSEQUENT TREATMENT MUCH LESS LIKELY TO SUCCEED (MUTANTS ACCUMULATE).

[email protected] ADDITIONAL SLIDES www.hcvadvocate.org Zidovudine(Azidothymidine, AZT) AZT was the first approved treatment for HIV, sold under the names Retrovir and Retrovis. AZT use was a major breakthrough in AIDS therapy in the 1990s. AZT slows HIV spread significantly, but does not stop it entirely. Tenofovir Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF or PMPA), marketed by Gilead Sciences under the trade name Viread, belongs to a class of antiretroviral drugs known as nucleotide analogue reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), which block reverse transcriptase, an enzyme crucial to viral production in HIV-infected people. Raltegravir Raltegravir (MK-0518, brand name Isentress) Raltegravir targets integrase, an HIV enzyme that integrates the viral genetic material into human chromosomes, a critical step in the pathogenesis of HIV. The drug is metabolized away via glucuronidation EFAVIRENZ BRAND NAMES SUSTIVA AND STOCRIN NNRTI UNLIKE NRTIS, WHICH BIND AT THE ENZYME'S ACTIVE SITE, NNRTIS ACT ALLOSTERICALLY BY BINDING TO A DISTINCT SITE AWAY FROM THE ACTIVE SITE KNOWN AS THE NNRTI POCKET. SAQUINAVIR SAQUINAVIR WAS THE FIRST PROTEASE INHIBITOR (AND SIXTH ANTIRETROVIRAL) APPROVED BY THE FDA. HIV PROTEASE IS VITAL FOR BOTH VIRAL REPLICATION WITHIN THE CELL AND RELEASE OF MATURE VIRAL PARTICLES FROM AN INFECTED CELL. SAQUINAVIR INHIBITS BOTH HIV-1 AND HIV-2 PROTEASES. Nucleoside Analog AZT: when abundant in cytoplasm, replaces thymidine, lacks the OH group-halts reverse transcription RTase irreversibly binds to AZT Viral RTase prefers AZT, host polymerases prefer thymidine Other examples: 3TC, ddC, ddI Non-Nucleoside Analogs • React directly with RTase, termed NNRTIs. Most are structurally similar to nucleotides • Problem – patients treated with NNRTIs tend to accumulate resistant mutants. 1 study: 29 patients on NNRTI-containing regimen, 83% had more than two NNRTIresistant forms. Mutants persisted 12 months after therapy stopped.
