Drug Interactions between delavirdine and Xtandi

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inducers of CYP450 3A4 may significantly decrease the plasma concentrations of delavirdine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In seven HIV-infected subjects, administration of delavirdine (400 mg three times a day for 30 days) in combination with the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer rifampin (600 mg once daily on days 16 thru 30) decreased mean delavirdine peak plasma concentration (Cmax), systemic exposure (AUC) and trough plasma concentration (Cmin) by approximately 92%, 97% and 100%, respectively, compared to administration of delavirdine alone. Oral clearance of delavirdine also increased by nearly 27-fold in the presence of rifampin. When delavirdine (400 mg three times a day for 30 days) was given with rifabutin (300 mg once daily on days 16 thru 30) in seven HIV-positive subjects, mean delavirdine Cmax, AUC and Cmin decreased by about 75%, 84% and 95%, respectively, and oral clearance increased by approximately 5-fold. Likewise, population pharmacokinetic data from efficacy studies showed that delavirdine Cmin was reduced by approximately 90% in patients (n=8) treated with various dosages of phenytoin, phenobarbital, and/or carbamazepine who were given delavirdine 300 to 400 mg three times a day.

MANAGEMENT: Given the risk of reduced viral susceptibility and resistance development associated with subtherapeutic antiretroviral drug levels, concomitant use of delavirdine with potent CYP450 3A4 inducers should generally be avoided.
