Interakce antiretrovirálních léčiv s membránovými transportéry / Interactions of antiretroviral drugs with membrane transporters

Charles University, Faculty of Pharmacy in Hradec Králové Department of Pharmacology and Toxicology Candidate: Mgr. Ondřej Martinec Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of doctoral thesis: Interactions of antiretroviral drugs with membrane transporters Oral delivery is the most common, convenient, and economical form of drug administration. Absorption of orally administered drugs occurs mainly in the intestine. Intestinal absorption can be reduced by the activity of efflux drug ABC transporters, mainly p-glycoprotein (ABCB1) and breast cancer resistance protein (ABCG2), located in the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelium. HIV-infected patients are dependent on lifelong pharmacotherapy, which includes a combination of three or more antiretroviral drugs. Hepatitis C (HCV) is a common co-infection of HIV. In addition, the HIV-positive population is aging, which is associated with burden of other comorbidities. This results in an indication of polypharmacy and thus an increased risk of drug-drug interactions. Many antiretroviral drugs used are substrates, inhibitors and /or inducers of ABCB1, so they might quantitatively affect the intestinal absorption of co-administered drugs (ABCB1 substrates), thereby affecting the efficacy/safety of treatment. As part of this...
