Indinavir-d6

Indinavir-d₆ is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of indinavir by GC- or LC-MS. Indinavir is an HIV-1 protease inhibitor (K_i = 0.358 nM).¹ It is selective for HIV-1 protease over HIV-2 protease (K_i = 3.316 nM), as well as human cathepsin D, porcine pepsin, bovine chymosin, human plasma renin, Factor Xa, and elastase at 10 μM. It is also selective for wild-type HIV-1 protease over the protease inhibitor-resistant mutants A-44, K-60, and V-18 (K_is = 0.24, 15, 50, and 40 nM, respectively).² Indinavir is active against multiple HIV-1 variants in cell-based assays (IC₉₅s = 12-100 nM).¹ Formulations containing indinavir have been used in combination with antiretroviral agents in the treatment of HIV infection.
