Abstract
A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography method for the simultaneous quantitative determination of the currently available HIV protease inhibitors amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, saquinavir, the active nelfinavir metabolite M8, and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor nevirapine in human plasma is described. The method involved liquid-liquid extraction from plasma, followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with an OmniSpher 5 C18 column and ultraviolet detection set at a wavelength of 215 nm for the protease inhibitors and 280 nm for nevirapine. The runtime was 25 minutes. The assay has been validated over the concentration range of 0.05 to 30 mg/L for indinavir, nelfinavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir, 0.07 to 30 mg/L for amprenavir and lopinavir, and 0.05 to 15 mg/L for M8 and nevirapine. This method proved to be simple, accurate, and precise and is useful for the therapeutic drug monitoring of protease inhibitors and the nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor nevirapine on a routine basis.Entities:
