Abstract
Objective An open-label, three-period pharmacokinetic study was conducted to investigate the drug interaction potential between fosamprenavir (FPV) and tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF). Methods Thirty-six healthy subjects received TDF 300 mg once daily (qd) for 7 days (period 1), and then were randomized to 14 days of either FPV 1400 mg twice daily (bid) or FPV/ritonavir (RTV) 700/100 mg bid alone or with TDF (period 2). Subjects continued their randomized dose of FPV for 14 more days, adding or removing TDF based upon its receipt in period 2 (period 3). Twenty-four-hour pharmacokinetic sampling was carried out on day 7 of period 1 and on day 14 of periods 2 and 3. Steady-state plasma amprenavir (APV) and tenofovir (TFV) pharmacokinetics were assessed by noncompartmental analysis and parameter values observed with each regimen were compared using geometric mean ratios with 90% confidence intervals. Results After TDF coadministration, APV geometric mean minimum concentration (C(min)), maximum concentration (C(max)), and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) increased by 31, 3 and 7% above values observed with unboosted FPV alone; they also increased by 31, 4 and 16% above values observed with FPV/RTV alone. TFV C(min), C(max) and AUC decreased by 12, 25 and 15% after FPV coadministration and by 9, 18 and 7% after FPV/RTV coadministration. No significant changes in RTV pharmacokinetics were observed. No differences were noted in adverse events among dosing periods. Conclusions In this evaluation of the interaction between FPV and TDF, increases in APV exposures and modest decreases in TFV exposures were observed. These were unlikely to be clinically significant.
