Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

dasatinib cariprazine

Applies to: Phyrago (dasatinib) and cariprazine

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of cariprazine and its major active metabolite, didesmethyl cariprazine (DDCAR), both of which are primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When cariprazine (0.5 mg/day) was coadministered with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, ketoconazole (400 mg/day), cariprazine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 3.5- and 4-fold, respectively, while Cmax and AUC of DDCAR increased by approximately 1.5-fold each. The Cmax and AUC of another active metabolite, desmethyl cariprazine (DCAR), decreased by approximately one-third. The extent to which other, less potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may interact with cariprazine and its metabolites is unknown.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when cariprazine is prescribed with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for adverse effects such as extrapyramidal symptoms, cognitive and motor impairment, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, weight gain, orthostatic hypotension, leucopenia, neutropenia, seizures and dysphagia, and the dosage of cariprazine adjusted as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food interactions

Major

dasatinib food

Applies to: Phyrago (dasatinib)

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit and grapefruit juice may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of dasatinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall induced by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Because grapefruit juice inhibits primarily intestinal rather than hepatic CYP450 3A4, the magnitude of interaction is greatest for those drugs that undergo significant presystemic metabolism by CYP450 3A4 (i.e., drugs with low oral bioavailability). In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit juice are also subject to a high degree of interpatient variability, thus the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict. Because dasatinib prolongs the QT interval, high plasma levels of dasatinib may increase the risk of ventricular arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes and sudden death.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with dasatinib should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and any supplement containing grapefruit extract. Some authorities recommend close monitoring for toxicity (e.g., myelosuppression, bleeding complications, fluid retention, bradycardia or other conduction disturbances) and a reduction of dasatinib dosage to a range of 20 to 40 mg daily should be considered if there are no alternatives and concomitant use with a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is necessary.

The Cmax and AUC of another active metabolite, desmethyl cariprazine (DCAR), decreased by approximately one-third. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to cariprazine may increase the risk of adverse effects such as extrapyramidal symptoms, cognitive and motor impairment, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, weight gain, orthostatic hypotension, leucopenia, neutropenia, seizures, and dysphagia.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should avoid the consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with cariprazine.

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.
