Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

probenecid cabozantinib

Applies to: probenecid and cabozantinib

MONITOR: Coadministration of cabozantinib with multidrug resistance-associated proteins (MRP2) inhibitors may increase exposure and toxicity of cabozantinib. In vitro studies have shown MRP2 inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations of cabozantinib, a MRP2 substrate. The clinical relevance of this finding is not known.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if cabozantinib is used concomitantly with a MRP2 inhibitor. Monitor for cabozantinib toxicity, such as gastrointestinal perforations and fistulas, hemorrhage, thrombotic events, hypertension, diarrhea, and palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia. Dose reductions, interruption or discontinuation of cabozantinib may be necessary if toxicity occurs.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

cabozantinib food

Applies to: cabozantinib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may alter the oral bioavailability of cabozantinib. When healthy subjects were given a single 140 mg oral dose with a high-fat meal, cabozantinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 41% and 57%, respectively, relative to administration under fasting conditions. In clinical studies, patients were administered cabozantinib without food.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice is likely to increase the plasma concentrations of cabozantinib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. However, the interaction has not been studied. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit.

MANAGEMENT: Cabozantinib should be administered at least one hour before or two hours after a meal. The consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and supplements that contain grapefruit extract should be avoided.

Drug Interaction Classification

These classifications are only a guideline. The relevance of a particular drug interaction to a specific individual is difficult to determine. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication.
Major Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit.
Moderate Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances.
Minor Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan.
Unknown No interaction information available.
