PharmDr. Lukáš Červený, Ph.D. Title of diploma thesis: IN VITRO STUDY OF DRUG-DRUG INTERACTIONS OF HIV PROTEASE INHIBITOR DARUNAVIR ON EFFLUX ABC TRANSPORTERS Abstract: Darunavir is a drug used in the therapy of HIV belonging to the group of protease inhibitors. These protease inhibitors are used as a part of the combination antiretroviral therapy. For the increase of bioavailability, darunavir is always used in combination with ritonavir or cobicistat. As the CYP3A4 and ABCB1 (P-glycoprotein) transporter substrate, darunavir is a drug with a high potential to drug interactions. Considering the amount of adverse effects that can be caused by darunavir, it is necessary to know these drug interactions for the safety of therapy. Inhibition of the intestinal ABCB1 by the co-administrated drugs could also lead to the increased bioavailability of darunavir and to reduction of frequency of administration leading to a cheaper therapy. This thesis studies the drug-drug interactions of darunavir with in vitro methods using two cell lines - MDCKII and Caco-2 cells. The results from the transport of darunavir across the MDCKII cell monolayer indicates that darunavir is a ABCB1...
