[PMID: 38612471 PMCID: PMC11012182 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25073659] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2024] [Revised: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 03/22/2024] [Indexed: 04/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) is an enormous global health threat stemming from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection. Up to now, the tremendous advances in combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) have shifted HIV-1 infection from a fatal illness into a manageable chronic disorder. However, the presence of latent reservoirs, the multifaceted nature of HIV-1, drug resistance, severe off-target effects, poor adherence, and high cost restrict the efficacy of current cART targeting the distinct stages of the virus life cycle. Therefore, there is an unmet need for the discovery of new therapeutics that not only bypass the limitations of the current therapy but also protect the body's health at the same time. The main goal for complete HIV-1 eradication is purging latently infected cells from patients' bodies. A potential strategy called "lock-in and apoptosis" targets the budding phase of the life cycle of the virus and leads to susceptibility to apoptosis of HIV-1 infected cells for the elimination of HIV-1 reservoirs and, ultimately, for complete eradication. The current work intends to present the main advantages and disadvantages of United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved anti-HIV-1 drugs as well as plausible strategies for the design and development of more anti-HIV-1 compounds with better potency, favorable pharmacokinetic profiles, and improved safety issues.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus-1 Drug Resistance Mutations in Iranian Treatment-experienced Individuals. Curr HIV Res 2024; 22:53-64. [PMID: 38310469 DOI: 10.2174/011570162x273321240105081444] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 02/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Human immunodeficiency virus-1 infection still remains a global health threat. While antiretroviral therapy is the primary treatment option, concerns about the emergence of drug-resistance mutations and treatment failure in HIV-infected patients persist. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated the development of drug resistance in HIV-1-infected individuals receiving antiretroviral therapy for 6-10 years. METHODS In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated 144 people living with HIV-1 who had received antiretroviral therapy for at least 6 years. Plasma specimens were collected, and the HIV-1 viral load and drug-resistance mutations were assessed using molecular techniques. RESULTS The demographic and epidemiological characteristics of the participants were also analyzed: Twelve [8.3%) of the studied patients showed a viral load over 1000 copies per/mL, which indicates the suboptimal response to antiretroviral therapy. Significant correlations were found between viral load and CD4 count, as well as epidemiological factors, such as vertical transmission, history of imprisonment, and needle stick injuries. Drug resistance mutations were detected in 10 (83.3%) of patients who failed on antiretroviral therapy, with the most common mutations observed against nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (5 (41.7%)) and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (9 (75%)). Phylogenetic analysis revealed that 12 patients who failed treatment were infected with CRF35_AD. CONCLUSION Our study provides important insights into the characteristics and development of drug resistance in HIV-1-infected individuals receiving long-term antiretroviral therapy in Iran. The findings underline the need for regular viral load monitoring, individualized treatment selection, and targeted interventions to optimize treatment outcomes and prevent the further spread of drug-resistant strains.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IMPAACT 2014 study is a phase I/II, multicenter, open-label, nonrandomized study of doravirine (DOR) co-formulated with lamivudine (3TC) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) as fixed-dose combination (DOR FDC) in adolescents with HIV-1. We report the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of DOR FDC through 96 weeks. METHODS Participants were adolescents aged 12 to <18 years who weighed at least 45 kg and who were either antiretroviral (ARV)-naïve or virologically suppressed without documented resistance mutations to DOR/3TC/TDF. The efficacy endpoint was the proportion of participants with HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL assessed at weeks 48 and 96 using the observed failure approach. Safety and tolerability outcomes were incidence of adverse events (AEs) and treatment discontinuations. RESULTS A total of 45 adolescents, median age 15 (range, 12-17) years, 58% females, were enrolled and 2 (4.4%) participants were ARV naïve. Of the 45 participants, 42 (93.3%) completed the study and 41 (91.1%) completed the study treatment. At week 48, 41/42 (97.6%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 87.4-99.9) and week 96, 37/40 (92.5%; 95% CI, 79.6-98.4) participants had achieved or maintained HIV-1 RNA <40 copies/mL. There were no treatment-related discontinuations due to AEs and no drug-related AEs ≥grade 3 or deaths. CONCLUSIONS We found once-daily dosing of DOR FDC to be safe and well tolerated for maintaining viral suppression through 96 weeks in adolescents living with HIV-1.

Abstract
Contemporary antiretroviral therapy (ART) regimens have high barriers to the development of drug resistance. However, resistance to earlier antiretrovirals and uncommon cases of resistance to contemporary ART illustrate the continued need for good clinical management of HIV drug resistance. Here, we describe HIV drug-resistance mechanisms, the interaction of HIV drug-resistant mutations and the patterns of drug resistance to contemporary ART. We then provide guidance on the management of HIV drug resistance, including how to limit the development of resistance and manage virologic failure that is complicated by resistance. To complement this, links to resources and treatment guidelines are provided that can assist with the interpretation of HIV drug resistance test results and optimal ART selection in the clinic.

Abstract
AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) is a potentially life-threatening infectious disease caused by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). To date, thousands of people have lost their lives annually due to HIV infection, and it continues to be a big public health issue globally. Since the discovery of the first drug, Zidovudine (AZT), a nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NRTI), to date, 30 drugs have been approved by the FDA, primarily targeting reverse transcriptase, integrase, and/or protease enzymes. The majority of these drugs target the catalytic and allosteric sites of the HIV enzyme reverse transcriptase. Compared to the NRTI family of drugs, the diverse chemical class of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) has special anti-HIV activity with high specificity and low toxicity. However, current clinical usage of NRTI and NNRTI drugs has limited therapeutic value due to their adverse drug reactions and the emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) strains. To overcome drug resistance and efficacy issues, combination therapy is widely prescribed for HIV patients. Combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) includes more than one antiretroviral agent targeting two or more enzymes in the life cycle of the virus. Medicinal chemistry researchers apply different optimization strategies including structure- and fragment-based drug design, prodrug approach, scaffold hopping, molecular/fragment hybridization, bioisosterism, high-throughput screening, covalent-binding, targeting highly hydrophobic channel, targeting dual site, and multi-target-directed ligand to identify and develop novel NNRTIs with high antiviral activity against wild-type (WT) and mutant strains. The formulation experts design various delivery systems with single or combination therapies and long-acting regimens of NNRTIs to improve pharmacokinetic profiles and provide sustained therapeutic effects.

Abstract
HIV post- exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is a prevention tool for individuals with a recent potential exposure to HIV. Doravirine has been available since 2019 in combination with tenofovir disoproxil fumarate and lamivudine and has not been evaluated as a PEP. DOR/3TC/TDF is our department's most commonly prescribed PEP treatment since 2021. This study evaluates the completion rate of the DOR/3TC/TDF as compared to EVG/c/FTC/TAF for PEP, which was the regimen prescribed until 2020 in our hospital.This retrospective observational study was conducted between January 2020 and September 2021. The subjects included consecutively were adults who consulted for an HIV sexual exposure accident and for whom DOR/3TC/TDF in 2021 or EVG/c/FTC/TAF in 2020 was prescribed. The outcomes were the completion rate to the end of treatment (28 days), the seroconversion rate, and the description of side effects.During the study period, 311 people were included: 140 treated with DOR/3TC/TDF and 171 treated with EVGc/FTC/TAF. Considering subjects with a follow-up visit, the completion rate was 96.8% (90/93) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group, and 94.6% (123/130) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group (p-value: 0.53). The number of people lost to follow-up was nearly equivalent in both groups: 27.1% (38/140) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group and 23.4% (40/171) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group (p-value: 0.45). A side effect was described for 38% (36/94) in the DOR/3TC/TDF group, and 29.7% (38/128) in the EVG/c/FTC/TAF group. No cases of seroconversion were observed.DOR/3TC/TDF appears to have a similar safety profile to EVG/c/FTC/TAF. Due to its lower cost, it seems to be a treatment option for consideration in the context of HIV-exposure accidents.

Abstract
Nucleosides and their derivatives are a well-known and well-described class of compounds with antiviral activity. Currently, in the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists are also looking for compounds not related to nucleosides with antiviral properties. This review aims to provide an overview of selected synthetic antiviral agents not associated to nucleosides developed against human viruses and introduced to preclinical and clinical trials as well as drugs approved for antiviral therapy over the last 10 years. The article describes for the first time the wide classification of such antiviral drugs and drug candidates and briefly summarizes the biological target and clinical applications of the compounds. The described compounds are arranged according to the antiviral mechanism of action. Knowledge of the drug's activity toward specific molecular targets may be the key to researching new antiviral compounds and repositioning drugs already approved for clinical use. The paper also briefly discusses the future directions of antiviral therapy. The described examples of antiviral compounds can be helpful for further drug development.

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
Recently, the use of antiretroviral drug tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) is increased, thanks to the new co-formulation with doravirine, the availability of booster-free regimens, and its advantageous lipid-lowering effect. The aim of our study was to identify genetic markers that contribute to assess the risk of TDF-related renal toxicity. We have retrospectively investigated, in 179 HIV positive patients treated with TDF, the association between the main variants in ABCC2, ABCC4, and ABCC10 genes and four safety endpoints, three clinically relevant as renal outcomes and a higher tenofovir plasma concentration. In patients with an annual eGFR decline >5 mL/min/1.73 m2 a difference in genotype frequencies was observed for ABCC10 c.1875 + 526 G>A (3 subjects AA vs. 44 GG + GA, p = 0.045). In patients with an eGFR decrement >25%, plus a decline in GFR category and TDF discontinuation, a difference was observed for ABCC4 c.*38T>G (35 subjects TG + GG vs. 18 TT, p = 0.052). At univariate analysis OR was 1.39 [(95% CI 1.00-1.96) p = 0.054] and at multivariate analysis OR was 1.49 [(95% CI 1.00-2.22) p = 0.049]. The stronger associations were found between the tenofovir accumulation and ABCC4 c.*38T>G and c.3348G>A: the percentage of these patients was higher in the TG + GG (p = 0.011) and in the AA (p = 0.004) genotype, respectively. The logistic regression analysis confirmed these significant relationships. No significant association was observed in patients with eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m2 and with the studied ABCC2 polymorphisms. Our results show a major role for a combined determination of ABCC4/ABCC10 variants as an indicator of tenofovir toxicity in the clinical practice.

Abstract
Treatment with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) can prolong a patient's life-span by disrupting pivotal steps in the replication cycle of the human immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1). However, drug resistance is emerging as a major problem worldwide due to the prolonged period of treatment undergone by HIV-1 patients. Since the approval of zidovudine in 1987, over thirty antiretroviral drugs have been categorized into the following six distinct classes based on their biological function and resistance profiles: (1) nucleoside analog reverse-transcriptase inhibitors; (2) non–nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors; (3) integrase strand transferase inhibitors; (4) protease inhibitors; (5) fusion inhibitors; and (6) co-receptor antagonists. Additionally, several antiretroviral drugs have been developed recently, such as a long active drug, humanized antibody and pro-drug metabolized into an active form in the patient's body. Although plenty of antiretroviral drugs are beneficially used to treat patients with HIV-1, the ongoing efforts to develop antiretroviral drugs have overcome the drug resistances, adverse effects, and limited adherence of drugs observed in previous drugs to some extent. Furthermore, studies focused on agents targeting latent HIV-1 reservoirs should be strengthened, as that may lead to eradication of HIV-1.

Abstract
Background: Doravirine (DOR) is a novel non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) approved for the treatment of HIV-1 infection in patients with no known DOR resistance-associated mutations. DOR was rationally designed to address limitations associated with other approved NNRTIs, particularly resistance from common NNRTI resistance-associated mutants containing K103N, Y181C, or G190A reverse transcriptase substitutions. Setting: Data to date from both in vitro studies and clinical trials have been compiled to summarize the resistance profile of DOR. Methods: We analyzed data from in vitro studies and phase 2 and 3 trials to assess the emergence of resistance-associated mutations and their impact on efficacy among participants treated with DOR. Results: DOR exhibited a distinct resistance profile compared with efavirenz and rilpivirine in vitro and in vivo; mutant viruses that were resistant to DOR showed limited cross-resistance to efavirenz and rilpivirine. In clinical trials, the development of DOR resistance-associated substitutions in reverse transcriptase was uncommon. Conclusion: Overall, minimal cross-resistance across NNRTIs was observed for DOR and limited development of DOR-related resistance. These data should assist clinicians in further understanding the resistance profile of DOR, so appropriate treatment decisions can be made for their patients.

Abstract
Purpose of Review With the expanded roll-out of antiretrovirals for treatment and prevention of HIV during the last decade, the emergence of HIV drug resistance (HIVDR) has become a growing challenge. This review provides an overview of the epidemiology and trajectory of HIVDR globally with an emphasis on pediatric and adolescent populations. Recent Findings HIVDR is associated with suboptimal virologic suppression and treatment failure, leading to an increased risk of HIV transmission to uninfected people and increased morbidity and mortality among people living with HIV. High rates of HIVDR to non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors globally are expected to decline with the introduction of the integrase strand transfer inhibitors and long-acting combination regimens, while challenge remains for HIVDR to other classes of antiretroviral drugs. Summary We highlight several solutions including increased HIV viral load monitoring, expanded HIVDR surveillance, and adopting antiretroviral regimens with a high-resistance barrier to decrease HIVDR. Implementation studies and programmatic changes are needed to determine the best approach to prevent and combat the development of HIVDR.

Abstract
HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzyme that plays a major role in the replication cycle of HIV and has been a key target of anti-HIV drug development efforts. Because of the high genetic diversity of the virus, mutations in RT can impart resistance to various RT inhibitors. As the prevalence of drug resistance mutations is on the rise, it is necessary to design strategies that will lead to drugs less susceptible to resistance. Here we provide an in-depth review of HIV reverse transcriptase, current RT inhibitors, novel RT inhibitors, and mechanisms of drug resistance. We also present novel strategies that can be useful to overcome RT's ability to escape therapies through drug resistance. While resistance may not be completely avoidable, designing drugs based on the strategies and principles discussed in this review could decrease the prevalence of drug resistance.

Abstract
The non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) are allosteric inhibitors of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase and are classified into generations depending on their discovery and resistance profiles. The NNRTIs are used in combination regimens with antiretroviral agents that target two or more enzymes in the viral life cycle. The combination regimens usually include a backbone of two nucleoside or nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors and a third core agent among the NNRTIs or protease inhibitors. The combination regimens are maintained over long durations and consequently lead to long-term problems, including toxicity, drug-drug interactions, and increasing costs. This brief overview summarizes the pharmacokinetic profiles for NNRTIs and NNRTI-based combination regimens.

Abstract
HIV-1 infection is a global epidemic whose treatment is limited majorly by viral resistance and adverse effects. Natural products from algae have been studied for many years, including antiviral, being an alternative to anti-HIV drug design. Since the isolation of natural products can be a hurdle, molecular modeling is an important tool to study these compounds. Herein, structure-activity relationship, molecular docking, and molecular dynamic studies were performed to direct the studies of ten marine natural products with anti-HIV activity. In the structure-activity relationship, descriptors were identified associating the anti-HIV activity of five diterpenes with possible action on the reverse transcriptase allosteric site. These diterpenes were evaluated by molecular docking, and it was identified that only dolabelladienetriol interacted in the allosteric site. Molecular dynamics suggested that the dolabelladienetriol might interfere with the viral RNA binding to HIV-1 RT by inducing a conformational change of the enzyme. Also, in silico ADMET simulations predicts that the dolabelladienetriol present a high potential to be successfully developed as a drug. Thus, applying in silico approaches was possible to suggest potential anti-HIV compounds derived from marine natural products.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
