Description
Lopinavir is a potent HIV protease inhibitor, belonging to the "navir" class, and is used in combination with another protease inhibitor, ritonavir, for the treatment of AIDS in adults and children. It is a peptidomimetic compound with a structural core identical to that of ritonavir, featuring a modified valine introduced by peptide coupling procedures. Lopinavir exhibits high potential against ritonavir-resistant mutations and is a white to light tan powder that is freely soluble in methanol and ethanol, soluble in isopropanol, and practically insoluble in water. The brand name for the coformulation of lopinavir and ritonavir is Kaletra.
Uses
Used in Pharmaceutical Industry:
Lopinavir is used as an antiviral agent for the treatment of HIV infections. It is used in combination with ritonavir, another HIV protease inhibitor, to enhance its effectiveness and overcome resistance.
Used in HIV Treatment:
Lopinavir is used as a potent HIV protease inhibitor with a Ki of 1.3 pM, exhibiting high potential against ritonavir-resistant mutations. It is used in combination with ritonavir to improve the pharmacokinetic properties, such as Cmax and duration of action, and to reduce plasma HIV RNA levels and increase CD4+ T-cell counts in AIDS patients.
Used in Combination Therapy:
Lopinavir is used as a component of fixed-dose combinations with ritonavir for the treatment of HIV infections. The combination therapy is intended to be used jointly with other antiretroviral agents to enhance the overall treatment efficacy.
Used in Pediatric HIV Treatment:
Lopinavir, in combination with ritonavir, is the first protease inhibitor approved for patients as young as 6 months of age, making it an important option for treating HIV in pediatric populations.
Indications
Lopinavir is available in the United States only as a
fixed-dose combination with ritonavir (Kaletra). In this
regimen, a low dose of ritonavir is used to inhibit the
rapid inactivation of lopinavir by CYP3A4.
Manufacturing Process
Manufacturing process for Lopinavir includes these steps as follows: Synthesis of 2,6-dimethylphenoxyacetic
acid; 2,6-
dimethylphenoxyacetyl chloride as an oil; synthesis of (2S,3S,5S)-2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxyacetyl)amino-3-hydroxy-5-(tbutyloxycarbonylamino)-1,6-diphenylhexane; (2S,3S,5S)-2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxyacetyl)amino-3-hydroxy-5-
amino-1,6-diphenylhexane as a white needles; synthesis of N-carbonylbenzyloxy-3-
aminopropanol;synthesis of N-carbonylbenzyloxy-3-aminopropanal solution; N-(N-
(benzyloxycarbonyl-3-amino)-propyl)valine methyl ester, oil state; synthesis of 2S-(1-tetrahydro-pyrimid-2-onyl)-3-
methyl butanoic acid methyl ester;synthesis of 2S-(1-
tetrahydro-pyrimid-2-onyl)-3-methyl butanoic acid methyl ester. The mixture of (2S,3S,5S)-2-(2,6-dimethylphenoxyacetyl)amino-3-hydroxy-5-
amino-1,6-diphenylhexane (100 g, 0.22 mol), 2S-(1-tetrahydro-pyrimid-2-
onyl)-3-methyl butanoic acid methyl ester (44.8 g, 0.22 mol) and 750 ml DMF
was cooled in an ice/water bath. N-Hydroxybenzotriazole (90.9 g, 0.67 mol),
1-ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl]carbodiimide (86 g, 0.45 mol) and
triethylamine (62.5 ml, 0.45 mol) were added and the ice bath was removed,
allowing the reaction mixture to stir with warming to room temperature for 5
hours. The mixture was diluted with 1000 ml of IPAC and quenched with 1000
ml of water. The mixture was shaken and separated, the aq. layer was
extracted IPAC, the organics were washed with 10% HCl, solution of NaHCO3
with 100 ml hexanes, then washed 500 ml water, and brine, dried over
MgSO4, filtered and concentrated to provide. (2S,3S,5S)-2-(2,6-
dimethylphenoxyacetyl)amino-3-hydroxy-5-(2S-(1-tetrahydro-pyrimid-2-onyl)-
3-methylbutanoyl)amino-1,6-diphenylhexane as a white foam.
Therapeutic Function
Antiviral
Antimicrobial activity
Lopinavir is active against HIV-1 and HIV-2.
Acquired resistance
Significant resistance to the antiretroviral efficacy of ritonavirbooted
lopinavir occurs as a result of amino acid substitutions
at positions 32, 47 and 82 in the protease region. Protease
inhibitor resistance is uncommon in patients identified with
early failure of combination therapy with ritonavir boostedlopinavir
and nucleotide reverse transcriptase inhibitors.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Lopinavir is an antiviral HIV Protease Inhibitor. Lopinavir has insufficient bioavailability alone, so it is used in therapy in combination with Ritonavir, a HIV protease inhibitor, which inhibits cytochrome P450-3A4 (CYP3A4), a liver enzyme that normally metabolizes protease inhibitors. Lopinavir also has an ability to inhibit ZMPSTE24 (zinc metallopeptidase STE24).
Pharmacokinetics
Oral absorption: Not known/available
Cmax 400 mg + ritonavir 100 mg twice daily: c. 9.6 mg/L
Cmin 400 mg + ritonavir 100 mg twice daily: c. 5.5 mg/L
Plasma half-life: c. 5–6 h
Volume of distribution: Not known/available
Plasma protein binding: c. 98–99%
Absorption and distribution
The absorption of lopinavir–ritonavir in capsule or liquid form is favorably affected by the presence of food, particularly if high in fat. The CNS penetration is good. It has a semen:plasma ratio of 0.07. It is distributed into breast milk.
Metabolism
Lopinavir is extensively metabolized by the CYP3A4 system, but this is inhibited by ritonavir.
Excretion
Over an 8-day period after single dosing with the combined formulation, around 10% and 83% of the administered dose is recovered in urine and feces, respectively. Less than 3% of the dose is recovered as unchanged drug in urine and 20% in feces. In mild to moderate hepatic impairment, an increase in exposure of approximately 30% is observed, but is probably not clinically relevant. It should be avoided in severe hepatic impairment.
Clinical Use
Treatment of HIV infection (in combination with ritonavir and other
antiretroviral agents)
Side effects
The most common adverse events seen in trials of complex antiretroviral
regimens were diarrhea, nausea, headache, fatigue,
vomiting and rash. Ritonavir-boosted lopinavir is associated
with a dyslipidemia profile characteristic of those treated with
other protease inhibitors boosted with 200 mg of ritonavir.

Metabolism
Lopinavir is extensively metabolised, mainly by oxidation
by cytochrome P450 isoenzyme CYP3A4; 13 metabolites
have been identified with some, such as 4-oxylopinavir
and 4-hydroxylopinavir, having antiviral activity.
Lopinavir is mainly excreted in faeces and to a smaller
extent in the urine; unchanged lopinavir accounts for
about 2.2% of a dose excreted in the urine and 19.8%
in the faeces. After multiple dosing, less than 3% of the
absorbed lopinavir dose is excreted unchanged in the
urine
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 192725-17-0 includes 9 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 6 digits, 1,9,2,7,2 and 5 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 192725-17:
(8*1)+(7*9)+(6*2)+(5*7)+(4*2)+(3*5)+(2*1)+(1*7)=150
150 % 10 = 0
So 192725-17-0 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
