Impact of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms on Plasma Concentrations of Efavirenz and Lopinavir/Ritonavir in Chinese Children Infected with the Human Immunodeficiency Virus.

Abstract excerpt

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the genes that encode the cytochrome P450 (CYP) drug metabolizing enzymes and drug transporters have been reported to influence antiretroviral drug pharmacokinetics. Although primarily metabolized by CYP2B6 and -3A, efavirenz (EFV) and lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) are substrates of P-glycoprotein and the solute carrier organic (SLCO) anion transporter, respectively. We...
