This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. A5223 is a prospective evaluation of 78 HIV-1-infected subjects designed to determine the PK of LPV in men and women. It will be the first large prospective study of sex differences in the PK of LPV/RTV conducted in HIV-1-infected individuals. Pharmacokinetic (PK) evaluations will be performed on plasma samples obtained prior to and up to 12 hours after the administration of the morning dose of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/RTV) in 78 evaluable subjects (39 men and 39 women) currently managed on LPV/RTV as part of their antiretroviral regimen. A screening visit will occur within 30 days prior to the PK visit. Upon confirmation of eligibility, subjects will return for a registration/entry visit to enroll into the study and will be given a 48 hour medication diary to complete. Subjects will be required to spend approximately 13 hours at a general clinical research center (GCRC) or a similar research clinic setting for the intensive PK blood sampling.Seventy-eight HIV-infected subjects, 39 men and 39 women, age > 18 years currently receiving LPV/RTV (lopinavir 400 mg/ritonavir 100 mg po bid) plus one or more of the following: nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), tenofovir (a nucleotide RTI), and enfuvirtide (a fusion inhibitor). Subjects must be on the same regimen for at least 14 days prior to screening.Subjects to be stratified by race/ethnicity. Subjects will be on LPV/RTV and one or more of the following: NRTIs, tenofovir (TDF), and enfuvirtide (ENF). These drugs will not be provided by this study.
