Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

darunavir polatuzumab vedotin

Applies to: darunavir and polatuzumab vedotin

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase exposure to unconjugated monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the anti-mitotic and cytotoxic component of polatuzumab vedotin. MMAE is a substrate for CYP450 3A4. Concomitant use of polatuzumab vedotin with ketoconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, is predicted to increase unconjugated MMAE exposure (AUC) by 45% according to the product labeling. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when polatuzumab vedotin is used concomitantly with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for development or exacerbation of toxicities such as peripheral neuropathy, myelosuppression, opportunistic infections, tumor lysis syndrome and hepatotoxicity, and the dosing of polatuzumab vedotin adjusted or withheld as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

darunavir food

Applies to: darunavir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the absorption and oral bioavailability of darunavir administered in combination with low-dose ritonavir. The mechanism is unknown. When administered with food, the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of darunavir were approximately 30% higher than when administered in the fasting state. Darunavir exposure was similar for the range of meals studied. The total caloric content of the various meals evaluated ranged from 240 Kcal (12 grams fat) to 928 Kcal (56 grams fat).

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, darunavir coadministered with ritonavir should be taken with food. The type of food is not important.

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.
