Rash Summary
  • TPV is a sulfonamide
    • Cannot rule out relationship to rash
  • Overall rash is not more common on the TPV/r arms
  • Female subjects on TPV/r have a higher frequency of rash than male counterparts
    • Rate is consistent throughout Phase 1-3 studies (13-14%)
    • Few females in these studies
    • ?  Cause
      • Immune mediated reaction
      • Hormonally mediated

      • Natural disease course
      • Many comorbid diseases
      • Many concomitant medications

Question 1
  • Do the data demonstrate that tipranavir/ritonavir (TPV/r)
  • is safe and effective for the multi-drug resistant HIV-1 infected
  • population?


  • If no, what additional data are needed to provide evidence of safety and efficacy?


  • If yes, please address the appropriate population for TPV/r use considering the following:
    • limited inclusion criteria of the RESIST trials
    • drug-drug interactions
    • resistance information and patterns associated with optimal use
    • safety considerations
41
Question 2
  • Given the data on transaminase elevations,
  • please provide your recommendations for:
  • TPV/r use in patients with underlying liver disease
  • Monitoring and management of hepatotoxicity during clinical use
  • Future studies
42
Question 3
  • The limited amount of data in females with HIV infection in the TPV program shows an increased incidence of rash in females.  Please provide your recommendations for:
    • Investigation of this safety signal in future studies with TPV
43
Question 4
  • Current information indicates the net effect of TPV/r on substrates of CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP2D6 is not known, and there are competing effects of TPV/r on CYP3A (inhibition) and P-glycoprotein (induction).  Please comment on additional post-marketing drug interaction studies.
44
Question 5
  • Given the high inter-patient variability in TPV exposures following fixed doses and exposure (blood levels)-virologic response relationships, could a biomarker such as Cmin/IC50 be used for the individualization of TPV/r therapy?  Please discuss the studies that would supplement the data presented today.
45
Question 6
  • Please provide your recommendations regarding the display of TPV/r resistance data/analyses in the TPV package insert that would be useful to clinicians.
