The use of combined antiretroviral therapy has dramatically reduced the morbidity and mortality related to HIV infection. As a result, HIV-infected individuals live longer and the proportion of older individuals within the HIV infected population is constantly growing. Thus, the management of HIV infection is becoming more complex as patients encounter more age related chronic but also severe morbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, tumors or acute diseases leading to polypharmacy and consequently to potential drug-drug interactions (DDI). In addition, aging is characterized by the decline in the function of organs which may impact the pharmacokinetics of drugs and thereby the magnitude of DDI. Many HIV drugs are recognized to be “risky drugs” for clinically significant DDI. Drug interactions may be associated with a substantial risk for toxicity, decreased efficacy and subsequent emergence of drug resistance. Importantly, the recurrence of HIV replication may increase the risk of HIV transmission to seronegative partners as a viral load below the threshold of 50 copies/ ml is highly preventive of HIV transmission. For these reasons, the management of drug interactions is crucial for the care of patients. However, one of the current issues is that there are limited clinical data on DDI and therefore potential DDI are mostly predicted based on in vitro drug metabolism data.The aims of this project are a) to characterize the magnitude of DDI between antiretroviral drugs and commonly prescribed co-medications in older HIV-infected patients and b) to simulate dosage adjustments to overcome a given DDI using physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling. This technique allows prediction of drug pharmacokinetics in virtual patients using in vitro data and a mathematical description of drug distribution, thus offering the possibility to simulate clinically relevant scenarios such as DDI and the related dosage adjustments to compensate for the interaction effect. The simulations will be performed considering the impact of age on the pharmacokinetics of antiretroviral drugs and consequently their related potential to inhibit or induce co-administered drugs. The developed models will be initially validated by comparing the magnitude of simulated DDI using probe drugs to that observed in clinical studies. Subsequent clinical validations for the drug combinations of interest will include data issued from the TDM repository of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study. In addition, full pharmacokinetic profiles will be generated to validate DDI of particular interest.This research project is of particular clinical importance as it will provide guidance on how to manage DDI for drug combinations not evaluated in clinical studies. These data are particularly relevant in the aging HIV population given the high prevalence of comorbidities and/or acute complications and the related treatments which exacerbate the risk of DDI with the antiretroviral therapy. Furthermore, the findings related to this project may serve to define a comprehensive knowledge of the physiological and anatomical factors that influence drug disposition in elderly also for other drug classes. Finally, the PBPK modelling approach allows acquiring data which can support the design of clinical trials based on pharmacological priorities.
