Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Universal antiretroviral (ART) coverage and virological suppression are fundamental to ending AIDS in children by 2030. Availability of new paediatric dolutegravir (DTG)-based ART formulations is a major breakthrough and will undoubtedly help achieve this goal, but treatment challenges still remain. RECENT FINDINGS Paediatric formulations remain limited compared to those for adults, especially for young children, those unable to tolerate DTG or with DTG-based first-line ART failure. Tenofovir alafenamide is virologically superior to standard-of-care backbone drugs in second-line, but paediatric formulations are not widely available. The roles of resistance testing and recycling of backbone drugs following first-line ART failure remain to be determined. Results of trials of novel treatment strategies including dual therapy and long-acting agents are awaited. Although numbers are currently small, safe and effective ART options are urgently required for children developing DTG resistance. SUMMARY The antiretroviral treatment gap between adults and children persists. The potential benefits from rollout of new paediatric DTG-based fixed-dose combination ART for first-line treatment are considerable. However, children remain disadvantaged when DTG-based first-line ART fails or cannot be used. Research efforts to address this inequity require prioritisation in order to ensure health outcomes are optimised for all ages in all settings.

Discontinuation of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate from initial ART regimens because of renal adverse events: An analysis of data from four multi-country clinical trials. PLOS GLOBAL PUBLIC HEALTH 2024; 4:e0002648. [PMID: 38175824 PMCID: PMC10766173 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pgph.0002648] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/02/2023] [Indexed: 01/06/2024]
Abstract
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), a potent and commonly used antiretroviral drug, is associated with renal tubular dysfunction and renal adverse events. We evaluated the frequency of, time to, and baseline risk factors for discontinuing TDF from initial antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens because of renal adverse events from presumed tenofovir renal toxicity. We conducted an observational cohort study as a secondary analysis of data from four clinical trials conducted mainly in low- and middle-income countries. We included ART naïve participants living with HIV who started TDF-containing ART regimens in the trials. Participants had to have estimated creatinine clearance (eCrCl) equal to or greater than 60ml/min before starting ART. The primary outcome was the first instance of discontinuing TDF because of renal adverse events attributed to tenofovir renal toxicity during the first 48 weeks after starting ART. We evaluated the cumulative incidence of discontinuing TDF and associated risk factors using Fine and Gray competing risk regression models with a backward elimination variable selection strategy. There were 2802 ART-naïve participants who started TDF-containing ART from the four clinical trials were included in the analysis. Fifty-eight percent were female, the median age was 34 years, and 87% had CD4 cell counts less than 200 cells/μl. Sixty-four participants (2.4%, 95% CI 1.7%-2.8%) discontinued TDF due to renal adverse events. Among the 64 participants, the median time to discontinue TDF was 9.4 weeks (IQR: 3.4-20.7 weeks). From multivariable Fine and Gray regression models, risk factors for discontinuing TDF were older age, CD4 cell count <200 cells/μl, presence and severity of anemia, and eCrCl <90 ml/min. The risk of discontinuing TDF because of renal adverse events was low in participants initiating TDF-containing ART with advanced HIV and normal renal function, attesting to the tolerability of TDF in ART in low- and middle-income countries.

Performance of Creatinine- and Cystatin C-Based Equations for Glomerular Filtration Rate Estimation in HIV-1-Infected Individuals Receiving Dolutegravir + Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate + Lamivudine as Initial Antiretroviral Therapy: A Retrospective Observational Study. J Acquir Immune Defic Syndr 2022; 91:S35-S41. [PMID: 36094513 DOI: 10.1097/qai.0000000000003044] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Dolutegravir (DTG) may inhibit organic cation transporter-2 in renal tubules and elevate serum creatinine levels without true renal function deterioration. There are scarce data on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) equations in Chinese HIV patients with DTG/TDF/3 TC. This retrospective study was to evaluate the changes in creatinine- and cystatin C-based estimated GFR values among Chinese adult HIV patients with initial highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) with DTG/TDF/3 TC for 48 weeks. SETTINGS Retrospective analysis of Chinese adult HIV patients who received initial HAART with DTG/TDF/3 TC between January 2016 and May 2021. METHODS We compared the changes in creatinine-based and cystatin C-based estimated GFR before and 48 weeks after HAART to determine the optimal tool for renal function estimation. RESULTS Ninety-five patients [91.58% men; median age, 34 years (interquartile range, 29-44 years)] were enrolled. The median baseline CD4+ cell count was 185 cells/µL [interquartile range, 53-303 cells/µL] and the median baseline viral load was 148,000 copies/mL [interquartile range, 26,800-596,000 copies/mL]. The estimated GFR at 4, 12, and 24 weeks was significantly different than at baseline (P < 0.05) using all 4 equations. Only the GFR estimated using the CKD-EPIcreat and CKD-EPIcys equations was significantly different at 48 weeks of treatment (P < 0.05). The modification of diet in renal disease-based decline of GFR incidence at 4, 12, 24, and 48 weeks of treatment (21.5%, 24.21%, 33.68% and 38.95%, respectively) was higher than that calculated using the other 3 GFR equations. CONCLUSIONS The modification of diet in renal disease equation may not be optimal for Chinese HIV-1-infected adults receiving DTG + TDF + 3 TC as the initial antiviral therapy. Clinicians must carefully choose the GFR equation for patients with HIV/hepatitis B virus coinfection.

Bone 2022; 161:116449. [PMID: 35605959 DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2022.116449] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/24/2021] [Revised: 05/15/2022] [Accepted: 05/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
The nucleotide analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitor, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), is widely used to treat hepatitis B virus (HBV) and human immunodeficiency virus infection (HIV). However, long-term TDF usage is associated with an increased incidence of bone loss, osteoporosis, fractures, and other adverse reactions. We investigated the effect of chronic TDF use on bone homeostasis and defect repair in mice. In vitro, TDF inhibited osteogenic differentiation and mineralization in MC3T3-E1 cells. In vivo, 8-week-old C57BL/6 female mice were treated with TDF for 38 days to simulate chronic medication. Four-point bending test and μCT showed reduced bone biomechanical properties and microarchitecture in long bones. To investigate the effects of TDF on bone defect repair, we utilized a bilateral tibial monocortical defect model. μCT showed that TDF reduced new bone mineral tissue and bone mineral density (BMD) in the defect. To verify whether mechanical stimulation may be a useful treatment to counteract the negative bone effects of TDF, controlled dynamic mechanical loading was applied to the whole tibia during the matrix deposition phase on post-surgery days (PSDs) 5 to 8. Second harmonic generation (SHG) of collagen fibers and μCT showed that the reduction of new bone volume and bone mineral density caused by TDF was reversed by mechanical loading in the defect. Immunofluorescent deep tissue imaging showed that chronic TDF treatment reduced the number of osteogenic cells and the volume of new vessels. In addition, chronic TDF treatment inhibited the expressions of periostin and β-catenin, but increased the expression of sclerostin. Both negative effects were reversed by mechanical loading. Our study provides strong evidence that chronic use of TDF exerts direct and inhibitory impacts on bone repair, but appropriate mechanical loading could reverse these adverse effects.

Abstract
Organophosphonate compounds have represented a rich source of biologically active compounds, including enzyme inhibitors, antibiotics, and antimalarial agents. Here, we report the development of a highly stereoselective strategy for olefin cyclopropanation in the presence of a phosphonyl diazo reagent as carbene precursor. In combination with a ‘substrate walking’ protein engineering strategy, two sets of efficient and enantiodivergent myoglobin-based biocatalysts were developed for the synthesis of both (1R,2S) and (1S,2R) enantiomeric forms of the desired cyclopropylphosphonate ester products. This methodology enables the efficient transformation of a broad range of vinylarene substrates at a preparative scale (i.e. gram scale) with up to 99% de and ee. Mechanistic studies provide insights into factors that contribute to make this reaction inherently more challenging than hemoprotein-catalyzed olefin cyclopropanation with ethyl diazoacetate investigated previously. This work expands the range of synthetically useful, enzyme-catalyzed transformations and paves the way to the development of metalloprotein catalysts for abiological carbene transfer reactions involving non-canonical carbene donor reagents. Two enantiocomplementary myoglobin-based carbene transfer biocatalysts were developed for the synthesis of cyclopropylphosphonate esters with high diastereo- and enantioselectivity and in high yields.![]()

Abstract
Abstract
Background
An easy, defined, rapid, and accurate reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography method was developed and subsequently validated for the concurrent estimation of lamivudine, efavirenz, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in their pure blend and combined tablet formulation. An efficient and appropriate separation of the three analytes was attained with Zorbax eclipse XDB-Phenyl column, with a mobile phase of methanol: buffer (0.1% v/v formic acid in water) (73:27 v/v) at a flow rate of 1mL/min and isocratic elution by using 260nm as detection wavelength. Equal ratio of acetonitrile and water was used as diluent.
Results
The retention times of lamivudine, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, and efavirenz were found at 2.6, 4.4, and 5.9 min respectively. The linear response for lamivudine, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, and efavirenz was in the range of 15.0–45.0μg/mL, 15.0–45.0μg/mL, and 20.0–60.0 μg/mL respectively. The method validation was done in accordance to ICH guidelines and all validation parameters in compliance with ICH standards. The degradants produced by stress testing were well resolved from the peaks of active analytes, which stipulates the stability-indicating property of the method.
Conclusion
The method has the ability to separate lamivudine, efavirenz, and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate concurrently in blended powder and their combined tablet. All degradants produced by application of stress conditions were separated with high resolution and determined with good sensitivity that ensures the stability-indicating property of the method. Thus, the projected method has high probability to adopt in the pharmaceutical industrial sector.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
To establish a simple, sensitive, accurate, precise, efficient, economical RP-UPLC method for simultaneous estimation of Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in bulk and their combined pharmaceutical formulations. Optimization of Chromatographic separation was achieved on analytical column HSS C18 (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μ) maintained at temperature 30 °C and mobile phase consisting of 0.01 N Potassium dihydrogen orthophosphate buffer (pH-4.8) and acetonitrile in the ratio 60:40 v/v and at a flow rate 0.3 mL/min in isocratic mode. The injection volume was set as 1 µl detection wavelength is 260 nm. The proposed method validation was done as per International Council on Harmonization Q2 (R1) guidelines.
Results
Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate were eluted at retention times of 1.2, 1.5, and 1.8 min respectively. The proposed method was identified an excellent linearity over concentration range of 12.5–75.0 µg/mL for Doravirine and 37.5–225.0 µg/mL for Lamivudine and 37.5–225.0 µg/mL for Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. The percentage relative standard deviation for intra-day and inter-day precision of the present method was less than 2% for Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Accuracy of the present method was evaluated by recovery studies which were in the range of 99.62–99.88% for Doravirine and 98.78–99.44% for Lamivudine and 99.67–100.52% for Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. The limit of detection and limit of quantification were found to be 0.249 µg/mL and 0.756 µg/mL for Doravirine and 0.24 µg/mL and 0.727 µg/mL for Lamivudine and 0.797 µg/mL and 2.966 µg/mL for Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. Forced degradation studies were carried out under various stress conditions like acid, base, peroxide, thermal, photo and neutral conditions.
Conclusions
The present method makes sure about no degraded impurity peak interference at the retention time of analyte peak hence can be applied for quality control investigation of Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in bulk and pharmaceutical formulations.

Abstract
The population of patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) overlaps to a high degree with those for chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). The degrees of renal dysfunction vary, from the various stages of CKD to dialysis-dependent ESRD, which often affects the prognosis and treatment choice of patients with HCC. In addition, renal dysfunction makes treatment more difficult and may negatively affect treatment outcomes. This study summarized the possible causes of the high comorbidity of HCC and renal dysfunction. The possible mechanisms of CKD causing HCC involve uremia itself, long-term dialysis status, immunosuppressive agents for postrenal transplant status, and miscellaneous factors such as hormone alterations and dysbiosis. The possible mechanisms of HCC affecting renal function include direct tumor invasion and hepatorenal syndrome. Finally, we categorized the risk factors that could lead to both HCC and CKD into four categories: Environmental toxins, viral hepatitis, metabolic syndrome, and vasoactive factors. Both CKD and ESRD have been reported to negatively affect HCC prognosis, but more research is warranted to confirm this. Furthermore, ESRD status itself ought not to prevent patients receiving aggressive treatments. This study then adopted the well-known Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer guidelines as a framework to discuss the indicators for each stage of HCC treatment, treatment-related adverse renal effects, and concerns that are specific to patients with pre-existing renal dysfunction when undergoing aggressive treatments against CKD and ESRD. Such aggressive treatments include liver resection, simultaneous liver kidney transplantation, radiofrequency ablation, and transarterial chemoembolization. Finally, focusing on patients unable to receive active treatment, this study compiled information on the latest systemic pharmacological therapies, including targeted and immunotherapeutic drugs. Based on available clinical studies and Food and Drug Administration labels, this study details the drug indications, side effects, and dose adjustments for patients with renal dysfunction. It also provides a comprehensive review of information on HCC patients with renal dysfunction from disease onset to treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The main aim of the study was to develop an economical, insightful, accurate and simple RP-HPLC-DAD method with high precision and good sensitivity for concurrent determination of Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, Doravirine and Lamivudine in blended bulk form and their combined tablet form. MATERIAL AND METHODS A method with Ascentis C18 (150×4.6mm, 5μm) column, mobile phase ratio of 0.1% ortho phosphoric acid and Acetonitrile in 70:30 (v/v), 1mL/min flow rate and detection wavelength of 260nm was highly proficient in effective separation of all three drugs. The developed method was validated in accordance with ICH specifications. RESULTS The retention times of Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate observed were 2.4, 2.9, and 3.6min, respectively. The linear responses were observed for Doravirine, Lamivudine and Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate in the range of 12.5-75μg/mL, 75-225μg/mL and 75-225μg/mL, respectively. The limit of detection and quantification values were calculated to be 0.36μg/mL and 0.11μg/mL for Lamivudine, 0.55μg/mL and 1.66μg/mL for Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and 0.03μg/mL and 0.09μg/mL for Doravirine. The % RSD values of the intra-day and inter-day precision were calculated in the range of 0.134-1.749. The mean percentage recovery of all three analytes was in the range of 98.85-100.18%. The statistical results of the validation parameters ensured that the method was accurate, specific, and precise with good sensitivity. Investigation of analytes under different stressed conditions ensures the stability of analytes reflecting the stability indication of the method. The developed method has high proficiency in separation of Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, Doravirine and Lamivudine. The degradation products generated due to stress conditions also separated with good resolution. CONCLUSION The current method is a stability-indicating assay method consisting of appropriate specificity, accuracy, precision and sensitivity. The developed method has a good potential to be adopted by the pharmaceutical industrial sector.

Abstract
We assessed renal and metabolic changes associated with switching from tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF)- to tenofovir alafenamide (TAF)-containing regimens among patients with HIV at the Maple Leaf Medical Clinic, Toronto, Canada. Using an electronic medical records retrospective chart review from July 2005 to December 2019, 651 patients aged ≥16 years taking TDF-containing regimens for ≥6 months who switched to TAF-containing regimens for ≥6 months were included. Change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was examined at 12-month follow-up. Secondary outcomes included change in urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio, serum phosphate, alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cholesterol markers, HbA1C, and weight. After 12 months, eGFR increased in 63% of the baseline eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 group (mean change [SD] = +5.1 [10.8], p = 0.002), 52% for the baseline eGFR = 60-90 mL/min/1.73 m2 group (+0.5 [10.4], p = 0.490), and 26% for baseline eGFR >90 mL/min/1.73 m2 group (-7.2 [11.2], p <0.001). The multivariable generalized estimating equations model showed a significant reduction in eGFR after 12 months. Advanced age, HCV coinfection, and being switched to or on integrase inhibitors were significantly associated with reduced eGFR. Among secondary outcomes, ALP significantly decreased, while high-density lipoprotein, low-density lipoprotein, and weight significantly increased. Our findings suggest that TDF-to-TAF switching was beneficial for those with preexisting renal impairment (eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2).

Abstract
HIV infection is an exclusion criterion in lung cancer trials. This multicentre phase II trial aimed to assess feasibility, efficacy and safety of first-line carboplatin plus pemetrexed (CaP) followed by pemetrexed (P) maintenance in people living with HIV (PLHIV) with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NS-NSCLC).Four cycles of CaP were followed by P-maintenance therapy in patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status ≤2. The primary objective was a disease control rate (DCR) ≥30% after 12 weeks.Of the 61 PLHIV enrolled, 49 (80%) had a performance status of 0-1, and 19 (31%) had brain metastases. Median CD4 lymphocyte count was 418 cells·µL-1 (range 18-1230), median CD4 lymphocyte nadir was 169.5 cells·µL-1 (1-822); 48 (80%) patients were virologically controlled. Four-cycle inductions were achieved by 38 (62%) patients, and 31 (51%) started P-maintenance (median of 4.1 cycles (range 1-19)). The 12-week DCR was 50.8% (95% CI 38.3-63.4) and partial response rate 21.3%. Median progression-free survival and overall survival were 3.5 (95% CI 2.7-4.4) and 7.6 months (5.7-12.8), respectively. Patients with a performance status of 0-1 had the longest median progression-free survival (4.3 months, 95% CI 3.1-5.2) and overall survival (11.9 months, 95% CI 6.4-14.3). During induction, CaP doublet was well tolerated apart from grade 3-4 haematological toxicities (neutropenia 53.8%; thrombocytopenia 35.0%; anaemia 30.0%). Two fatal treatment-related sepses were reported. No opportunistic infections were experienced.In PLHIV with advanced NS-NSCLC, first-line four-cycle CaP induction followed by P-maintenance was effective and reasonably well-tolerated. Further studies should evaluate combination strategies of CaP with immunotherapy in PLHIV.

The New NNRTI ACC007 Combined with Lamivudine and Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate Show Synergy Anti-HIV Activity In Vitro. Curr HIV Res 2020; 18:332-341. [PMID: 32562524 DOI: 10.2174/1570162x18666200620211922] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/18/2019] [Revised: 04/11/2020] [Accepted: 05/06/2020] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome can hardly be cured currently and people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) need lifelong treatment that may result in the emergence of drug resistance which leads to failed treatment. Thus, the development of new anti- HIV drugs and new treatment regimens are necessary. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study is to analyze the combined anti-HIV activity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, lamivudine and ACC007, a new non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. METHODS The antiviral activity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, lamivudine and ACC007 alone or in combination against different HIV-1 strains was determined by the detection of HIV-1 p24 level through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULT ACC007 showed EC50 of nanomolar range (from 3.03 nM to 252.59 nM) against all HIV-1 strains used in this study except the HIV-1A17, with EC50 of 1.57 μM. The combined antiviral activity of ACC007, lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate showed synergy antiviral activity against all HIV-1 strains used in this study. The three-drug combination showed moderate synergism against HIV-1A17, HIV-14755-5, HIV-1K103N and HIV-1V106M, with a combination index value ranging from 0.71 to 0.87, and showed synergism against the other HIV-1 strains with combination index value from 0.35 to 0.67. The combination with ACC007 significantly increases the dose reduction index value of lamivudine and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate, compared with two-drug combination. CONCLUSION ACC007 exhibits potent antiviral activity alone or with 3TC and TDF, and exerts synergistic effect against all HIV strains used in our investigation in vitro.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) infection poses a significant burden to public health worldwide. Most cases are clinically silent until late in the disease course. The main goal of current therapy is to improve survival and quality of life by preventing disease progression to cirrhosis and liver failure, and consequently hepatocellular carcinoma development. The objective of this review is to provide a contemporary and comprehensive evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment options. METHODS We performed a systematic review of peer-reviewed literature for randomized controlled trials involving treatment-naïve CHB adult population who received antiviral therapy. The endpoints were virologic response (VR), normalization of alanine aminotransferase (ALT norm), HBeAg loss, HBeAg seroconversion, and HBsAg loss for the HBeAg-positive population; and VR and ALT norm for the HBeAg-negative population. Network meta-analysis (NMA) was performed to synthesize evidence on the efficacy of treatment. RESULTS Forty-two publications were selected. Twenty-three evaluated HBeAg-positive population, 13 evaluated HBeAg-negative population, and six evaluated both. We applied NMA to the efficacy outcomes of the two populations separately. Treatment strategies were ranked by the probability of achieving outcomes, and pairwise comparisons calculated from NMA were reported in odds ratios (OR). For HBeAg-positive population, tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and tenofovir alafenamide (TAF) were the best for VR; OR vs adefovir = 14.29, 95% CI 7.69-25 and 12.5, 95% CI 4.35-33.33 respectively. TAF was the best for achieving ALT norm (OR vs placebo = 12.5, 95% CI 4.55-33.33), HBeAg loss, and seroconversion (OR vs entecavir/TDF combination = 3.03, 95% CI 1.04-8.84 and 3.33, 95% CI 1.16-10 respectively). In the HBeAg-negative population, TDF and TAF were the best for VR (OR vs adefovir = 9.79, 95% CI 2.38-42.7 and 11.71, 95% CI 1.03-150.48 respectively). Telbivudine and TAF were the best for ALT norm. Certain nucleos(t)ide combinations also had high probability of achieving positive outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Our results are consonant with current clinical guidelines and other evidence reviews. For both HBeAg-positive and HBeAg-negative populations, TDF and TAF are the most effective agents for virologic suppression, and TAF is effective across all outcomes.

Abstract
Limited understanding of species differences in kidney transporters is a critical knowledge gap for prediction of drug-induced acute kidney injury, drug interaction, and pharmacokinetics in humans. Here, we report protein abundance data of 19 transporters in the kidney cortex across five species (human, monkey, dog, rat, and mouse). In general, the abundance of all of the 19 membrane transporters was higher in preclinical species compared with human except for multidrug resistance protein 1 (MDR1), organic cation transporter (OCT) 3, and OCTN1. In nonhuman primate, the total abundance of 12 transporters for which absolute data were available was 2.1-fold higher (P = 0.025) relative to human but the percentage of distribution of these transporters was identical in both species. Multidrug resistance-associated protein (MRP) 4, OCTN2, organic anion transporter (OAT) 2, sodium/potassium-transporting ATPase, MRP3, SGLT2, OAT1, MRP1, MDR1, and OCT2 were expressed differently with cross-species variabilities of 8.2-, 7.4-, 6.1-, 5.9-, 5.4-, 5.2-, 4.1-, 3.3-, and 2.8-fold, respectively. Sex differences were only significant in rodents and dog. High protein-protein correlation was observed in OAT1 versus MRP2/MRP4 as well as OCT2 versus MATE1 in human and monkey. The cross-species and sex-dependent protein abundance data are important for animal to human scaling of drug clearance as well as for mechanistic understanding of kidney physiology and derisking of kidney toxicity for new therapeutic candidates in drug development.

Abstract
Darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir AF (Symtuza®) is the first protease inhibitor (PI)-based single-tablet regimen (STR) available for the treatment of adults and adolescents (aged ≥ 12 years) with HIV-1 infection. It combines the PI darunavir (which has a high genetic barrier to resistance) with the pharmacokinetic booster cobicistat and the nucleos(t)ide reverse transcriptase inhibitors emtricitabine and tenofovir alafenamide (tenofovir AF), the latter being associated with less off-target tenofovir exposure than its predecessor tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (tenofovir DF). Over 48 weeks in phase 3 trials, darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir AF was noninferior to darunavir/cobicistat plus emtricitabine/tenofovir DF in establishing virological suppression in antiretroviral therapy (ART)-naïve adults and, likewise, was noninferior to an ongoing boosted PI, emtricitabine plus tenofovir DF regimen in preventing virological rebound in virologically-suppressed, ART-experienced adults. Resistance did not emerge to the STR components, with the exception being an emtricitabine resistance-associated mutation (RAM) [M184I/V] in one of seven recipients who experienced virological failure (although M184V was a minority variant at screening in this patient). Darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir AF was generally well tolerated, with renal and bone profile improvements but less favourable effects on some lipids versus tenofovir DF-based regimens. Thus, although longer-term and cost-effectiveness data would be beneficial, darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir AF is a welcome addition to the STRs available for the treatment of adults and adolescents with HIV-1 infection, being the first to combine the high genetic resistance barrier of darunavir with the renal/bone profile of tenofovir AF, thus expanding the patient population for whom an STR may be suitable.

Abstract
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is a very effective antiviral drug that has been associated with tubular dysfunction. The aim of this study was to analyze the demographic, pharmacokinetic, and pharmacogenetic variables associated with TDF discontinuation for renal outcomes in stable HIV-positive patients using multivariable analyses. Three hundred and four patients were included (73% male, with median age and eCrCl of 45.3 years and 90.9 mL/min, respectively). After a median follow-up of 28.3 months, 27 patients discontinued TDF for renal adverse events [persistent urinary abnormalities (n = 21) or eCrCl < 60 mL/min (n = 6)] providing an incidence of 3.77 events per 100 patient-year. The probability of TDF discontinuation was higher with several features (male gender, older age, not Caucasians ancestry, absence of intravenous drug abuse, protease inhibitors, previous indinavir, HCV-positivity, lower CD4 cell count, detectable HIV-RNA, lower eCrCl, spot-urine proteinuria) and higher tenofovir concentrations but not genetic variants. Tenofovir plasma concentrations were prognostic of TDF discontinuation for renal adverse events suggesting that dose-adjustment may be warranted for long-term safety.

Abstract
Interindividual and interethnic differences in response to antiretroviral drugs (ARVs) are influenced by genetic variation. The few genomic studies conducted among African-Americans and African ethnic groups do not reflect the extensive genetic diversity within African populations. ARVs are widely used in Africa. Therefore, genomic characterization of African populations is required before genotype-guided dosing becomes possible. The aim of this study was to determine and report on the frequency of genetic variants in genes implicated in metabolism and transport of ARVs in South African populations. The study comprised 48 self-reported South African Colored (SAC) and 296 self-reported Black African (BA) individuals. Allele and genotype frequency distributions for 93 variants contributing to metabolism and transport of ARVs were compared between groups, and other global populations. Fifty-three variants had significant differences in allele and genotype frequencies when comparing SAC and BA groups. Thirteen of these have strong clinical annotations, affecting efavirenz and tenofovir pharmacokinetics. This study provides a summary of the genetic variation within genes implicated in metabolism and transport of ARVs in indigenous South African populations. The observed differences between indigenous population groups, and between these groups and global populations, demonstrate that data generated from specific African populations cannot be used to infer genetic diversity within other populations on the continent. These results highlight the need for comprehensive characterization of genetic variation within indigenous African populations, and the clinical utility of these variants in ARV dosing for global precision medicine. Population pharmacogenetics is a nascent field of global health and warrants further research and education.

Combination ART-Induced Oxidative/Nitrosative Stress, Neurogenic Inflammation and Cardiac Dysfunction in HIV-1 Transgenic (Tg) Rats: Protection by Mg. Int J Mol Sci 2018; 19:ijms19082409.

Abstract
Chronic effects of a combination antiretroviral therapy (cART = tenofovir/emtricitatine + atazanavir/ritonavir) on systemic and cardiac oxidative stress/injury in HIV-1 transgenic (Tg) rats and protection by Mg-supplementation were assessed. cART (low doses) elicited no significant effects in normal rats, but induced time-dependent oxidative/nitrosative stresses: 2.64-fold increased plasma 8-isoprostane, 2.0-fold higher RBC oxidized glutathione (GSSG), 3.2-fold increased plasma 3-nitrotyrosine (NT), and 3-fold elevated basal neutrophil superoxide activity in Tg rats. Increased NT staining occurred within cART-treated HIV-Tg hearts, and significant decreases in cardiac systolic and diastolic contractile function occurred at 12 and 18 weeks. HIV-1 expression alone caused modest levels of oxidative stress and cardiac dysfunction. Significantly, cART caused up to 24% decreases in circulating Mg in HIV-1-Tg rats, associated with elevated renal NT staining, increased creatinine and urea levels, and elevated plasma substance P levels. Strikingly, Mg-supplementation (6-fold) suppressed all oxidative/nitrosative stress indices in the blood, heart and kidney and substantially attenuated contractile dysfunction (>75%) of cART-treated Tg rats. In conclusion, cART caused significant renal and cardiac oxidative/nitrosative stress/injury in Tg-rats, leading to renal Mg wasting and hypomagnesemia, triggering substance P-dependent neurogenic inflammation and cardiac dysfunction. These events were effectively attenuated by Mg-supplementation likely due to its substance P-suppressing and Mg’s intrinsic anti-peroxidative/anti-calcium properties.

Abstract
The association between single nucleotide polymorphisms of genes encoding transport proteins involved in the bio-disposition of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) and kidney tubular dysfunction (KTD) in HIV-positive patients was examined in this study. Fifty-eight patients who received TDF were screened for KTD using retinol-binding protein (RBP) concentration in urine. We defined KTD as the top quartile of urinary RBP/creatinine ratio (>17 μg/mmol), regardless of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) or proteinuria. Genotyping of genes encoding transport proteins involved in the disposition of TDF was undertaken using validated Taqman 5' nuclease assays. Patients with KTD (N = 15) had higher current CD4 cell counts, lower eGFR and were less likely to possess the genotype CC at position 24 of the ABBC2 (MRP2, rs717620) gene. In multivariate analysis, genotype CC at position 24 of the ABBC2 gene was significantly associated with KTD (odds ratio =0.05, 95% confidence interval = 0.003-0.7, P = 0.027). Genotype CC at position 24 of the ABBC2 (MRP2 rs717620) gene was significantly associated with a reduced risk of elevated urinary RBP in HIV-positive patients exposed to TDF.

Abstract
Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF, commonly termed ‘tenofovir’) is the antiretroviral most commonly implicated in antiretroviral-induced nephrotoxicity. As patients on successful antiretroviral therapy (ART) age, their risk for developing renal disease may increase in part because of ART itself, but more importantly, because of HIV-associated and non-HIV-associated comorbidity. Therefore, clinicians need an approach to managing renal disease in people on TDF. TDF as a cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) or chronic kidney disease (CKD) is uncommon, and clinicians should actively exclude other causes (Box 1). In TDF-associated AKI, TDF should be interrupted in all cases, and replaced, or ART interrupted altogether. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate toxicity can present as AKI or CKD, and as a full or partial Fanconi’s syndrome. TDF has a small but definite negative impact on kidney function (up to a 10% decrease in glomerular filtration rate [GFR]). This occurs because of altered tubular function in those exposed to TDF for treatment and as pre-exposure prophylaxis. Renal function should be assessed using creatinine-based estimated GFR at the time of initiation of TDF, if ART is changed, at 1–3 months, and then ideally every 6–12 months if stable. Specific tests of tubular function are not routinely recommended; in the case of clinical concern, a spot protein or albumin: creatinine ratio is preferable, but in resource-limited settings, urine dipstick can be used. More frequent monitoring may be required in those with established CKD (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 50 mL/min/1.73 m2) or risk factors for kidney disease. The most common risk factors are comorbid hypertension, diabetes, HIV-associated kidney disease, hepatitis B or C co-infection, and TDF in combination with a ritonavir-boosted protease inhibitor. Management of these comorbid conditions must be prioritised in this group. If baseline screening eGFR is < 50 mL/min/1.73 m2, abacavir (the preferred option), and dose-adjusted TDF (useful if concomitant hepatitis B), zidovudine or stavudine (d4T) remain alternatives to full-dose TDF. If there is a rapid decline in kidney function (eGFR drops by more than 25% and decreases to < 50 mL/min/1.73 m2 from of baseline function), or there is new onset or worsening of proteinuria or albuminuria, clinicians should review ART and other potentially nephrotoxic medications and comorbidity and conduct further testing if indicated. If kidney function does not improve after addressing reversible causes of renal failure, then referral to a nephrologist is appropriate. In the case of severe CKD, timeous referral for planning for renal replacement therapy is recommended. Tenofovir alafenamide, a prodrug of tenofovir, appears to have less renal toxicity and is likely to replace TDF in future.

Abstract
Reversal of cancer gene expression is predictive of therapeutic potential and can be used to find new indications for existing drugs (drug repositioning). Gene expression reversal potential is currently calculated, in almost all studies, by pre-aggregating all tumour samples into a single group signature or a limited number of molecular subtype signatures. Here, we investigate whether drug repositioning based on individual tumour sample gene expression signatures outperforms the use of tumour group and subtype signatures. The tumour signatures were created using 534 tumour samples and 72 matched normal samples from 530 clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) patients. More than 20,000 drug signatures were extracted from the CMAP and LINCS databases. We show that negative enrichment of individual tumour samples correlated (Spearman's rho = 0.15) much better with the amount of differentially expressed genes in drug signatures than with the tumour group signature (Rho = 0.08) and the 4 tumour subtype signatures (Rho 0.036-0.11). Targeted drugs used against ccRCC, such as sirolimus and temsirolimus, which could not be identified with the pre-aggregated tumour signatures could be recovered using individual sample analysis. Thus, drug repositioning can be personalized by taking into account the gene expression profile of the individual's tumour sample.

Abstract
We describe the case of a 50-year-old woman presenting to our acute medicine department with generalised non-specific symptoms on a background of HIV managed on triple therapy (tenofovir, lamivudine and zidovudine). On admission, she was noted to be acidotic with proteinuria, glycosuria, hypophosphataemia and generalised body pain, and was diagnosed with Fanconi's renotubular syndrome secondary to tenofovir. It was also noted that she had elevated liver dysfunction markers, and an MRI of the liver revealed a focal stricture near the ampulla of Vater, resulting in a diagnosis of AIDS cholangiopathy. These two diagnoses are rare complications of HIV, and the presence of both these pathologies in a single patient has never been reported in the literature before, and we therefore believe that this case is the first of its kind.
