Fosnetupitant / palonosetron Disease Interactions

There are 4 disease interactions with fosnetupitant / palonosetron:

Moderate

Fosnetupitant (applies to fosnetupitant/palonosetron) severe hepatic impairment

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Liver Disease

Limited data are available with fosnetupitant (only available in combination with palonosetron in the US) in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score greater than 9), therefore, its use should be avoided in these patients. No dosage adjustment is necessary for patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 5 to 8).

Moderate

Fosnetupitant (applies to fosnetupitant/palonosetron) severe renal impairment

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction

No dosage adjustment for netupitant/fosnetupitant (only available in combination with palonosetron in the US), is necessary in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance of 30 to 60 mL/min). The pharmacokinetics and safety of netupitant/fosnetupitant have not been studied in patients with severe renal impairment. Severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min) did not substantially affect pharmacokinetics of palonosetron. The pharmacokinetics for netupitant and palonosetron were not studied in patients with end-stage renal disease requiring hemodialysis, therefore, avoid the use of this drug in patients with severe renal impairment or end-stage renal disease.

Moderate

Palonosetron (applies to fosnetupitant/palonosetron) end stage renal disease

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Renal Dysfunction

Mild to moderate renal impairment does not significantly affect palonosetron pharmacokinetic parameters. However, total systemic exposure increased approximately 28% in patients with severe renal impairment. Additionally, the pharmacokinetics of palonosetron have not been studied in patients with end-stage renal disease. Caution is advised.

Moderate

Palonosetron (applies to fosnetupitant/palonosetron) hepatic impairment

Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: Liver Disease

No dosage adjustment for palonosetron is necessary for patients with mild to moderate hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score 5 to 8). Limited data are available in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh score greater than 9). It is recommended to avoid use of palonosetron in patients with severe hepatic impairment.

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.
