AIM: Our primary aim was to evaluate the plasma exposures and safety of rifabutin and its active 25-O-desacetyl metabolite during concomitant therapy of intermittent rifabutin dosing regimens with a combination of ritonavir and saquinavir.
METHODS: Twenty-four patients without mycobacterial infection who were human immunodeficiency virus seropositive and who were receiving 400 mg each of ritonavir and saquinavir twice daily participated in a 3-period, 2-group longitudinal pharmacokinetic study. Patients were equally randomized to receive 300 mg of rifabutin every 7 days (group 1) or 150 mg of rifabutin every 3 days (group 2) for 8 weeks. Blood samples were collected over the dosing intervals of the protease inhibitors at baseline (period 1) and of the 3 drugs after 4 weeks (period 2) and 8 weeks (period 3) for HPLC measurement of plasma concentrations of the 3 drugs and 25-O-desacetylrifabutin.
RESULTS: Nineteen patients (group 1, n = 10; group 2, n = 9) completed the study. Five individuals withdrew from the study; 3 of them experienced side effects, and 2 were lost to follow-up. For combined groups, mean saquinavir and ritonavir overall (area under the concentration-time curve [AUC]) and peak (C(max)) plasma exposures averaged over periods 2 and 3 did not change significantly (8% to 19%; P > .05) compared with those in period 1 (90% confidence intervals, -7% to 26% for ritonavir and -2% to 38% for saquinavir). Rifabutin and metabolite AUC and C(max) exposures were stable over the 8 weeks, with intraindividual coefficients of variation of 12% to 19%. Oral clearance of rifabutin was similar in both groups (321 mL/min in group 2 versus 372 mL/min in group 1; P = .34). Rifabutin C(max) values were significantly lower in group 2 (310 ng/mL versus 496 ng/mL in group 1; P = .004). Rifabutin and metabolite predose levels were significantly higher in group 2 (rifabutin: 54 ng/mL versus 17 ng/mL; desacetyl rifabutin: 55 ng/mL versus 28 ng/mL; P < .002).
CONCLUSIONS: Rifabutin exposures were similar at 4 and 8 weeks and had minimal effect on ritonavir and saquinavir exposures. Intermittent rifabutin dosing over 8 weeks provided a safe and manageable regimen for concurrent therapy with a combination of ritonavir and saquinavir.
