Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling for Predicting the Effect of Intrinsic and Extrinsic Factors on Darunavir or Lopinavir Exposure Coadministered With Ritonavir.

ABSTRACT: Management of comorbidities and medications is complex in HIV-1-infected patients. The overall objective of this project was to develop separate physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) substrate models for the protease inhibitors darunavir and lopinavir. These protease inhibitors are used in the treatment of HIV infection. Both darunavir and lopinavir are coadministered with another medication that inhibits cytochrome (CYP) 3A. The current project focused on PBPK modeling for darunavir and lopinavir coadministered with ritonavir. Darunavir and lopinavir PBPK models that accounted for ritonavir CYP3A inhibition effects (linked PBPK models) were developed. The linked PBPK models were then used to predict the effect on darunavir or lopinavir exposure from CYP modulators. In the next step
