Description
Amprenavir-d
4 is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of amprenavir by GC- or LC-MS. Amprenavir is an inhibitor of HIV protease (K
i = 0.04 nM).
1 It inhibits the cytopathic effects of HIV-1 in MT-4 cells (IC
50 = 150 nM). Formulations containing amprenavir have been used in combination with other antiretroviral agents in the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
