14 THERAPEUTIC DRUG MONITORING (TDM) FOR ANTIRETROVIRAL AGENTS: STATUS AND PERSPECTIVES Current highly active antiretroviral therapies (HAART) result in a significant suppression of HIV replication and in a marked improvement in clinical outcomes. However, the efficacy of antiretroviral treatment may be impaired by several factors, including poor adherence on the part of the patients, the presence of treatment related side effects, selection of antiretroviral-resistant HIV viral strains, and suboptimal concentrations of antiretroviral agents. A growing interest has been generated in recent years regarding the importance of concentrations of antiretroviral agents in plasma, and the role that inadequate drug concentrations may play in treatment failure or drug resistance. Rationale for the Use of TDM of Antiretroviral Therapy Dose-response relationship in which higher doses of the drug are related to a more durable viral suppression exists for many antiretroviral agents Failure to maintain adequate concentrations will eventually allow the development of viral resistance, thereby decreasing the probability of response of current and subsequent therapies. On the other hand, excessively high drug concentrations may contribute, at least in part, to the appearance of antiretroviral therapy-related adverse events. However, the current practice of administering a fixed dosage of antiretroviral agents for all patients produces different concentrations of drugs (interindividual variability) Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) consists of individualizing dosages with the aim to maintain drug concentrations within a preestablished therapeutic range. The usefulness of this approach to maximize the efficacy while minimizing toxicity of several drugs has been proved in different therapeutic areas, such as antiarrhytmics, anticonvulsants or aminoglycoside antibiotics. Likewise, since HIV suppression seems to be so dependent on adequate drug concentrations, the use of TDM in this scenario would be highly desirable. However, the wide therapeutic range of the new antiretrovirals in current use together with the lack of large-scale prospective studies showing that TDM is a useful tool to improve the management of all HIV-infected subjects who start to take an ARV regimen constitute the main limiting factors for performing TDM in the HIV field. Current Status and Perspectives Consider TDM for specific indications patients with significan drug-drug or drug-food interactions patients with changes in pathophysiological state that may impair gastrointestinal, hepatic or renal function 504

15 in treatment-experienced patients who may have viral isolates with reduced susceptibility to HAART use of alternative dosing regimens whose safety and efficacy have not been established in clinical trials concentration dependent toxicities lack of expected virological response in a treatment naïve person monitoring adherence pregnant or pediatric patients 2. Provide a plasma sample for TDM with at least the following information: patient identifiers indication for TDM dose and frequency of the drug time of last intake of medication and time sample was taken co-medications 3. Take a blood sample noting the correct time after drug intake This requires the patient to have reached the steady state, usually 2 weeks after starting the drug. 4. Use trough samples to monitor virological efficacy and peak samples for toxicity management. Trough samples need to be measured 8h for TID, 12 hours for, and 24 hours for a drug. 5. Undertake TDM for those drugs where a concentration range has been defined (Table 1) 6. Send samples for TDM to a laboratory that you know participates in both internal and external QC programme 7. Monitoring drug concentrations of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs) NRTIs are metabolized intracellularly and therefore plasma concentrations may not correlate with levels of active intracellular triphosphate which determined the efficacy of the drug. Monitoring plasma concentrations of NRTIs might be useful for the evaluation and management of a drug-drug interaction that affected the plasma concentrations of the NRTI. 8. Make sure that the active metabolite of the drug you are monitoring is being measured, where appropriate. Some drugs have a metabolite component that is measurable and affects the activity of the drug. At present, nelfinavir is the only PI that has a measurable and active metabolite (M8). 9. Only perform TDM as a part of integrated approach in your overall clinical management. TDM can be an extremely valuable tool assisting you in your clinical management of patients, but it is only helpful when combined with other equally important treatment considerations. 10. When performing TDM, take into consideration the intrapatient variability observed with drug concentrations. 505

16 REFERENCES Activity for an HIV drug across the population may be extremely variable and drug concentration within the therapeutic range does not itsef guarantee a therapeutic concentration at any given time. Levels of systemic exposure to PIs and NNRTIs correlate with their efficacy and some of their adverse effects. Therefore, adjusting PIs and NNRTIs concentrations within a therapeutic window may be of benefit. TDM has potential for patients who are beginning therapy with any PI or NNRTI or who are changing regimens, regardless of treatment history or pharmacoenhancement with ritonavir, to ensure appropriate drug concentrations and to exclude absorption or metabolic problems and unexpected drug-drug interactions 1.
