Аннотация

BACKGROUND: Human deficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitors (PIs) are widely used drugs whose effects are pharmacologically enhanced by ritonavir, a potent cytochrome P450 inhibitor. We reported previously that prophylactic postnatal ritonavir-PI therapy in HIV-exposed neonates was associated with increases in plasma 17-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEA-S).

AIMS: To further investigate adrenal function in neonates and adolescents given ritonavir-PI.

METHODS: Adrenal function was assessed prospectively in 3 HIV-exposed neonates given short-term prophylactic treatment and 3 HIV-infected adolescents given long-term treatment. Plasma cortisol, 17-OHP, 17-OH-pregnenolone, DHEA-S, and androstenedione were measured before and after ACTH administration.

RESULTS: None of the patients had clinical signs of adrenal dysfunction. The only neonate exposed to ritonavir-PI in utero had up to 3-fold increases in plasma 17-OHP. Increases in 17-OH-pregnenolone of up to 3.1-fold were noted in 4 of the 6 patients, and all 6 patients had elevations in DHEA-S (up to 20.4-fold increase) and/or DHEA (up to 4.7-fold) and/or androstenedione (up to 5.2-fold). All these parameters improved after treatment completion.

CONCLUSION: Neonates and adolescents given ritonavir-PI exhibit a similar adrenal dysfunction profile consistent with an impact on multiple adrenal enzymes. These abnormalities require evaluation, given the potentially long exposure times.
