Drug Interactions between infigratinib and Recorlev

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may increase the oral bioavailability of infigratinib. Coadministration with a high-fat, high-calorie meal (800 to 1,000 calories, with approximately 50% of total calories from fat) in healthy subjects increased mean infigratinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and total systemic exposure (AUC) by 60% to 80% and 80% to 120%, respectively, and increased the median time to Cmax from 4 hours to 6 hours. When coadministered with a low-fat, low-calorie meal (approximately 330 calories, with 20% of total calories from fat), mean infigratinib Cmax and AUC increased by 90% and 70%, respectively, while the median time to Cmax did not change.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of infigratinib and one of its active metabolites, BHS697, both of which are primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4 in vitro. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice but has been reported for other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Coadministration of infigratinib with multiple doses of itraconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, increased infigratinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and total systemic exposure (AUC) by 164% and 622%, respectively, and the AUC for the active metabolite, BHS697, by 174%. 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 infigratinib and BHS697 may increase the incidence and severity of serious adverse reactions such as infections, anemia, pyrexia, abdominal pain, hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, ocular toxicity (e.g., retinal pigment epithelial detachment), sepsis, stomatitis, diarrhea, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, increased blood creatinine, increased lipase, and onycholysis.

MANAGEMENT: Infigratinib should be administered on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after food. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or supplements that contain grapefruit during treatment with infigratinib.

GENERALLY AVOID: Excessive use of alcohol or products containing alcohol together with ketoconazole or levoketoconazole may potentiate the risk of liver injury. Serious hepatotoxicity has been reported with levoketoconazole. Hepatotoxicity requiring liver transplantation has been reported with the use of oral ketoconazole, of which levoketoconazole is an enantiomer. Some patients had no obvious risk factors for liver disease. In addition, use of alcohol or products containing alcohol during ketoconazole or levoketoconazole therapy may result in a disulfiram-like reaction in some patients. Symptoms of disulfiram-like reaction include flushing, rash, peripheral edema, nausea, and headache.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of ketoconazole or levoketoconazole. The mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. 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.

When administered to healthy volunteers with a high-fat meal (875 calories; 62% fat), levoketoconazole systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 30% while peak plasma concentration (Cmax) did not change and the time to reach Cmax (Tmax) was delayed from 2 to 4 hours, compared to fasted conditions.

MANAGEMENT: Levoketoconazole may be administered with or without food. Excessive consumption of alcohol should generally be avoided during ketoconazole or levoketoconazole therapy. Patients should preferably avoid or limit consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or any supplement containing grapefruit extract during ketoconazole or levoketoconazole therapy. Patients receiving ketoconazole or levoketoconazole should be instructed to contact their doctor immediately if they experience swelling, skin rash, itching, loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, dark colored urine, light colored stools, and/or yellowing of the skin or eyes, as these may be signs and symptoms of liver damage.
