Abstract excerpt
Despite the known benefits and the experienced use of lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in the management of HIV infection, important interindividual variability in the pharmacokinetics (PKs) and the response to treatment with standard doses of this drug has been observed. Host genetic factors have been recently suggested as being responsible for part of this variability as they may affect the expression and functional...
