Lopinavir/ritonavir has demonstrated antiviral activity in the HIV-infected adult. The objective of this study was to investigate a liquid coformulation of lopinavir/ritonavir, in combination with reverse transcriptase inhibitors, in HIV-infected children. One hundred antiretroviral (ARV)-naive and ARV-experienced, nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor-naive children between 6 months and 12 years of age participated in this Phase I/II, open label, multicenter trial. Subjects initially received either 230/57.5 mg/sq m or 300/75 mg/sq m lopinavir/ritonavir twice daily; ARV-naive subjects also received stavudine and lamivudine, whereas ARV-experienced subjects also received nevirapine and one or two nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. Lopinavir/ritonavir pharmacokinetics, safety and efficacy were evaluated. All subjects were escalated to the 300/75 mg/sq m twice daily dose based on results from an interim pharmacokinetic and safety evaluation. The pharmacokinetics of lopinavir did not appear to be dependent on age when dosing was based on body surface area but were decreased on coadministration with nevirapine. Overall 79% of subjects had HIV RNA levels <400 copies/mL at Week 48 (intent-to-treat: missing = failure). Mean increases in absolute and relative (percent) CD4 counts from baseline to Week 48 were observed in both ARV-naive subjects (404 cells/cu mm; 10.3%) and ARV-experienced subjects (284 cells/cu mm; 5.9%). Only one subject prematurely discontinued the study because of a study drug-related adverse event. The liquid coformulation of lopinavir/ritonavir demonstrated durable antiviral activity and was safe and well-tolerated after 48 weeks of treatment in HIV-infected children.

Ritonavir is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1 infection. Ritonavir is also authorized by the FDA for emergency use in Paxlovid - a COVID-19 antiviral treatment which includes [nirmatrelvir] - for the treatment of mild-to-moderate COVID-19 in adults and pediatric patients (12 years of age and older weighing at least 40 kg) with positive results of direct SARS-CoV-2 viral testing, and who are at high risk for progression to severe COVID-19, including hospitalization or death.
FDA Label
Ritonavir is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV 1 infected patients (adults and children of 2 years of age and older).
Ritonavir is indicated in combination with other antiretroviral agents for the treatment of HIV-1-infected patients (adults and children of two years of age and older).
Ritonavir is a protease inhibitor with activity against Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 (HIV-1). Protease inhibitors block the part of HIV called protease. HIV-1 protease is an enzyme required for the proteolytic cleavage of the viral polyprotein precursors into the individual functional proteins found in infectious HIV-1. Ritonavir binds to the protease active site and inhibits the activity of the enzyme. This inhibition prevents cleavage of the viral polyproteins resulting in the formation of immature non-infectious viral particles. Protease inhibitors are almost always used in combination with at least two other anti-HIV drugs. Modern protease inhibitors require the use of low-dose ritonavir to boost pharmacokinetic exposure through inhibition of metabolism via the cytochrome P450 3A4 enzyme pathway.
HIV Protease Inhibitors
Inhibitors of HIV PROTEASE, an enzyme required for production of proteins needed for viral assembly. (See all compounds classified as HIV Protease Inhibitors.)

Absorption
The absolute bioavailability of ritonavir has not been determined. Following oral administration, peak concentrations are reached after approximately 2 hours and 4 hours (Tmax) after dosing under fasting and non-fasting conditions, respectively. It should be noted that ritonavir capsules and tablets are not considered bioequivalent.
Route of Elimination
Ritonavir is primarily eliminated in the feces. Following oral administration of a single 600mg dose of radiolabeled ritonavir, approximately 11.3 2.8% of the dose was excreted into the urine, of which 3.5 1.8% was unchanged parent drug. The same study found that 86.4 2.9% of the dose was excreted in the feces, of which 33.8 10.8% was unchanged parent drug.
Volume of Distribution
The estimated volume of distribution of ritonavir is 0.41 0.25 L/kg.
Clearance
The apparent oral clearance at steady-state is 8.8 3.2 L/h. Renal clearance is minimal and estimated to be <0.1 L/h.
Ritonavir and its metabolites are eliminated from the body predominantly in the feces (86% of unchanged drug and metabolites), with minor urinary elimination (11%, mostly metabolites).

Absorption of ritonavir is only slightly affected by diet, and this is somewhat dependent on the formulation. The overall absorption of ritonavir from the capsule formulation may increase by 15% when taken with meals. ... There is greater than sixfold variability in drug trough concentrations among patients given 600 mg of ritonavir every 12 hours.

The extent of oral absorption is high and is not affected by food. Within the clinical concentration range, ritonavir is approximately 98 to 99% bound to plasma proteins, including albumin and alpha 1-acid glycoprotein. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drug concentrations are low in relation to total plasma concentration. However, parallel decreases in the viral burden have been observed in the plasma, CSF and other tissues. ... About 34% and 3.5% of a 600 mg dose is excreted as unchanged drug in the feces and urine, respectively. The clinically relevant t1/2 beta is about 3 to 5 hours. Because of autoinduction, plasma concentrations generally reach steady state 2 weeks after the start of administration. The pharmacokinetics of ritonavir are relatively linear after multiple doses, with apparent oral clearance averaging 7 to 9 L/hr.

Ritonavir is excreted principally in the feces, both as unchanged drug and metabolites. Following oral administration of 600 mg of radiolabeled ritonavir as the oral solution, 86.4% of the dose is excreted in feces (33.8% as unchanged drug) and 11.3% of the dose is excreted in urine (3.5% as unchanged drug).

Ritonavir circulates in the plasma predominantly as unchanged drug. Five metabolites have been identified. The isopropylthiazole oxidation metabolite (M-2) is the major metabolite in low plasma concentrations and retains similar antiviral activity to unchanged ritonavir. The cytochrome P450 enzymes CYP3A and CYP2D6 are the enzymes primarily involved in the metabolism of ritonavir.
... Ritonavir is primarily metabolised by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A isozymes and, to a lesser extent, by CYP2D6. Four major oxidative metabolites have been identified in humans, but are unlikely to contribute to the antiviral effect. ...

Five ritonavir metabolites have been identified in human urine and feces. The isopropylthiazole oxidation metabolite (M2) appears to be the major metabolite. M2 (but not other metabolites) has antiviral activity similar to that of ritonavir; however, only very low concentrations of this metabolite are present in plasma. Other metabolites identified in in vitro studies include a decarbamoylated metabolite (M1) and a product of N-dealkylation at the urea terminus (M11).

Ritonavic inhibits the HIV viral proteinase enzyme that normally cleaves the structural and replicative proteins that arise from major HIV genes, such as *gag* and *pol*. *Gag* encodes proteins involved in the core and the nucleocapsid, while *pol* encodes the the HIV reverse transcriptase, ribonuclease H, integrase, and protease. The *pol*-encoded proteins are initially translated in the form of a larger precursoe polypeptide, *gag-pol*, and needs to be cleaved by HIV protease to form other complement proteins. Ritonavir prevents the cleavage of the *gag-pol* polyprotein, which results in noninfectious, immature viral particles. Ritonavir is a potent inhibitor of cytochrome P450 CYP3A4 isoenzyme present both in the intestinal tract and liver. It is a type II ligand that perfectly fits into the CYP3A4 active site cavity and irreversibly binds to the heme iron via the thiazole nitrogen, which decreases the redox potential of the protein and precludes its reduction with the redox partner, cytochrome P450 reductase. Ritonavir may also play a role in limiting cellular transport and efflux of other protease inhibitors via the P-glycoprotein and MRP efflux channels.
Unlike nucleoside antiretroviral agents, the antiviral activity of ritonavir does not depend on intracellular conversion to an active metabolite. Ritonavir and other HIV protease inhibitors (e.g., amprenavir, indinavir, lopinavir, nelfinavir, saquinavir) act at a different stage of the HIV replication cycle than nucleoside and nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors, and results of in vitro studies indicate that the antiretroviral effects of HIV protease inhibitors and some nucleoside or nonnucleoside antiretroviral agents may be additive or synergistic.

Ritonavir is a selective, competitive, reversible inhibitor of HIV protease. HIV protease, an aspartic endopeptidase that functions as a homodimer, plays an essential role in the HIV replication cycle and the formation of infectious virus. During HIV replication, HIV protease cleaves viral polypeptide products of the gag and gag-pol genes (i.e., p55 and p160) to form structural proteins of the virion core (i.e., p17, p24, p9, and p7) and essential viral enzymes (i.e., reverse transcriptase, integrase, and protease). By interfering with the formation of these essential proteins and enzymes, ritonavir blocks maturation of the virus and causes formation of nonfunctional, immature, noninfectious virions. Ritonavir is active in both acutely and chronically infected cells since it targets the HIV replication cycle after translation and before assembly. Thus, the drug is active in chronically infected cells (e.g., monocytes and macrophages) that generally are not affected by nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (e.g., didanosine, lamivudine, stavudine, zalcitabine, zidovudine). Ritonavir does not affect early stages of the HIV replication cycle; however, the drug interferes with production of infectious HIV and limits further infectious spread of the virus.

While the complete mechanisms of antiviral activity of ritonavir have not been fully elucidated, ritonavir apparently inhibits replication of retroviruses, including human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and 2 (HIV-2), by interfering with HIV protease. The drug, therefore, exerts a virustatic effect against retroviruses by acting as an HIV protease inhibitor.
