Major

samarium sm 153 lexidronam palbociclib

Applies to: samarium sm 153 lexidronam and palbociclib

GENERALLY AVOID: Theoretical concerns exist that chemotherapeutic agents and other bone marrow depressants may potentiate the myelosuppressive effects of samarium sm 153 lexidronam. In clinical trials, white blood cell and platelet counts decreased to a nadir of approximately 40% to 50% of baseline in 95% of patients within three to five weeks after administration of samarium sm 153 lexidronam, and tended to return to pretreatment levels by eight weeks. The potential for additive bone marrow toxicity with myelotoxic treatments including chemotherapy or external beam radiation has not been studied.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends avoiding concomitant use of samarium sm 153 lexidronam with chemotherapy or external beam radiation therapy unless benefits are anticipated to outweigh the risks. Moreover, samarium sm 153 lexidronam should not be given after either of these treatments until there has been time for adequate marrow recovery. Caution and close monitoring of bone marrow function are advisable if coadministration with other myelotoxic agents is required. Patients should be advised to contact their physician if they develop signs and symptoms of myelosuppression such as pallor, dizziness, fatigue, lethargy, fainting, unusual bleeding or bruising, or signs of infection such as fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, and pain or burning during urination.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

palbociclib food

Applies to: palbociclib

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit and/or grapefruit juice may increase the systemic exposure to palbociclib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Increased exposure to palbociclib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as infections, neutropenia, leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, alopecia, asthenia, peripheral neuropathy, and epistaxis.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may enhance the oral bioavailability of palbociclib capsules and reduce the intersubject variability of palbociclib exposure. According to the product labeling, absorption and exposure of palbociclib from its oral capsule formulation were very low in approximately 13% of the population when taken in the fasted state. Food intake increased the palbociclib exposure in this small subset of the population but did not alter exposure in the rest of the population to a clinically relevant extent. Compared to palbociclib capsules given under overnight fasted conditions, the population average palbociclib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 38% and 21%, respectively, when given with high-fat, high-calorie food (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively); by 27% and 12%, respectively, when given with low-fat, low-calorie food (approximately 400 to 500 calories; 120, 250, and 28 to 35 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively); and by 24% and 13%, respectively, when given with moderate-fat, standard calorie food (approximately 500 to 700 calories; 75 to 105, 250 to 350 and 175 to 245 calories from protein, carbohydrate and fat, respectively) one hour before and two hours after palbociclib capsule dosing.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice while on treatment with palbociclib. To avoid variability in drug absorption between doses, palbociclib capsules should be taken with food. Palbociclib tablet formulations may be taken with or without food.

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.
