ABSTRACT GW678248, a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor, has been evaluated for anti-human immunodeficiency virus activity in a variety of in vitro assays against laboratory strains and clinical isolates. When GW678248 was tested in combination with approved drugs in the nucleoside and nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitor classes or the protease inhibitor class, the antiviral activities were either synergistic or additive. When GW678248 was tested in combination with approved drugs in the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor class, the antiviral activities were either additive or slightly antagonistic. Clinical isolates from antiretroviral drug-experienced patients were selected for evaluation of sensitivity to GW678248 in a recombinant virus assay. Efavirenz (EFV) and nevirapine (NVP) had ≥10-fold increases in their 50% inhibitory concentrations (IC50s) for 85% and 98% of the 55 selected isolates, respectively, whereas GW678248 had a ≥10-fold increase in the IC50 for only 17% of these isolates. Thus, 81 to 83% of the EFV- and/or NVP-resistant viruses from this data set were susceptible to GW678248. Virus populations resistant to GW678248 were selected by in vitro dose-escalating serial passage. Resistant progeny viruses recovered after eight passages had amino acid substitutions V106I, E138K, and P236L in the reverse transcriptase-coding region in one passage series and amino acid substitutions K102E, V106A, and P236L in a second passage series.

Abstract Background Increased access to antiretroviral therapy (ART) has resulted in rising levels of pretreatment human immunodeficiency virus drug resistance (PDR). This is the first systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the impact of PDR on treatment outcomes among people initiating nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)–based ART, including the combination of efavirenz (EFV), tenofovir (TDF), and lamivudine or emtricitabine (XTC). Methods We systematically reviewed studies and conference proceedings comparing treatment outcomes in populations initiating NNRTI-based ART with and without PDR. We conducted subgroup analyses by regimen: (1) NNRTIs + 2 nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), (2) EFV + 2 NRTIs, or (3) EFV/TDF/XTC; by population (children vs adults); and by definition of resistance (PDR vs NNRTI PDR). Results Among 6197 studies screened, 32 were analyzed (31 441 patients). We found that individuals with PDR initiating NNRTIs across all the subgroups had increased risk of virological failure compared to those without PDR. Risk of acquisition of new resistance mutations and ART switch was also higher in people with PDR. Conclusions This review shows poorer treatment outcomes in the presence of PDR, supporting the World Health Organization’s recommendation to avoid using NNRTIs in countries where levels of PDR are high.

ABSTRACT Rilpivirine (RPV), dapivirine (DPV), and MIV-150 are in development as microbicides. It is not known whether they will block infection of circulating nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI)-resistant human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) variants. Here, we demonstrate that the activity of DPV and MIV-150 is compromised by many resistant viruses containing single or double substitutions. High DPV genital tract concentrations from DPV ring use may block replication of resistant viruses. However, MIV-150 genital tract concentrations may be insufficient to inhibit many resistant viruses, including those harboring K103N or Y181C.

Abstract Among 66 antiretroviral-naive children aged <3 years with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or coinfected with HIV and tuberculosis and initiating efavirenz-based antiretroviral therapy (ART), non–nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) resistance was detected before ART in 5 (7.6%). Virologic failure occurred in 2 of these children; they were last tested at 16 and 24 weeks of ART. Pre-ART NNRTI resistance was not associated with virologic failure.

ABSTRACT The nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) UC781 is under development as a microbicide to prevent sexual transmission of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1). However, NNRTI-resistant HIV-1 is increasingly prevalent in the infected population, and one of the concerns for NNRTI-based microbicides is that they will be ineffective against drug-resistant virus and may in fact selectively transmit NNRTI-resistant virus. We evaluated the microbicidal activity of UC781 against UC781-resistant (UCR), efavirenz-resistant (EFVR), and nevirapine-resistant (NVPR) strains in a variety of microbicide-relevant tests, including inactivation of cell-free virus, inhibition of cell-to-cell HIV-1 transmission, and the ability of UC781 pretreatment to protect cells from subsequent infection in the absence of exogenous drug. UC781 was 10- to 100-fold less effective against NNRTI-resistant HIV-1 compared to wild-type (wt) virus in each of these tests, with UC781 microbicidal activity against the various virus strains being wt ≥ NVPR > UCR ≥ EFVR. Breakthrough experiments using UC781-pretreated cells and mixtures of wt and NNRTI-resistant HIV-1 showed that UC781-pretreatment selected for NNRTI-resistant HIV-1. However, the efficacy of UC781 was dose dependent, and 25 μM UC781 provided essentially equivalent microbicidal activity against NNRTI-resistant and wt virus. The amount of UC781 in topical microbicide formulations under current development is approximately 100-fold greater than this concentration, so transmission of NNRTI-resistant virus may not be an issue at these microbicide formulation levels of UC781. Nonetheless, the reduced microbicidal activity of UC781 against NNRTI-resistant HIV-1 suggests that additional antiviral agents should be included in NNRTI-based microbicide formulations.

ABSTRACT IDX899 is a novel nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) with potent in vitro activity against wild-type and NNRTI-resistant strains of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and with a high genetic barrier to resistance. Single rising doses of 50 and 100 (given by use of a 50-mg capsule) and 200, 400, 800, and 1,200 mg (given by use of a 200-mg capsule) of IDX899 or matching placebo were administered sequentially to cohorts of healthy male subjects, followed by the administration of multiple doses of 800 mg once daily (QD) or 400 mg twice daily (BID) for 7 days. A single dose of 400 mg was also administered to a cohort of females. IDX899 was administered orally under fasted (50- to 400-mg doses) and then fed (≥200-mg doses) conditions. Exposure to IDX899 was dose proportional and comparable in males and females. With a different drug-to-excipient ratio, the 50-mg capsule led to a higher exposure but a shorter mean terminal half-life (t 1/2) of 6.2 to 6.8 h. The 200-mg capsule resulted in a more sustained exposure with a longer mean t 1/2 of 7.9 to 14.6 h. Food enhanced absorption by approximately twofold, while it delayed the time to the maximum concentration. The mean concentration at 24 h following the administration of a single 200-mg dose under fed conditions exceeded the in vitro protein binding-adjusted 90% inhibitory concentration by fourfold. The levels of plasma exposure were similar between the single dosing and the repeat dosing with 800 mg QD and was approximately twofold higher with 400 mg BID. Mean steady-state trough levels were 0.9 μg/ml (range, 0.2 to 2.5 μg/ml) and 2.1 μg/ml (range, 0.5 to 4.5 μg/ml) for the 800-mg QD and 400-mg BID regimens, respectively. The level of excretion of unchanged drug in urine was negligible. IDX899 was well tolerated; and no serious adverse events, dose-dependent adverse events, or laboratory abnormalities were detected. These favorable safety and pharmacokinetic results support further clinical studies with patients with HIV-1 infection by the use of a QD regimen.
