Interactions between your drugs

Major

nelfinavir midostaurin

Applies to: AccessPak for HIV PEP Expanded with Viracept (emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir) and Rydapt (midostaurin)

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of midostaurin and its active metabolites, which are all substrates of the isoenzyme. The increase in midostaurin concentrations may be particularly pronounced when CYP450 3A4 inhibitors are administered during the first week of midostaurin administration. When a single 50 mg dose of midostaurin was administered to healthy volunteers on day 6 of treatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg daily for 10 days), midostaurin systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 10.4-fold compared to administration with placebo. The AUC of the two active metabolites, CGP62221 and CGP52421, increased by 3.5- and 1.2-fold, respectively. When multiple doses of midostaurin (100 mg twice daily on days 1 and 2; 50 mg twice daily on days 3 to 28) were coadministered with itraconazole (100 mg twice daily on days 22 to 28 for 13 doses), the plasma concentrations on day 28 (Cmin) of midostaurin, CGP62221 and CGP52421 increased by 2.1-, 1.2- and 1.3-fold, respectively, compared to the corresponding day 21 Cmin concentrations with midostaurin alone.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of midostaurin with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors should generally be avoided. If coadministration is required, patients should be closely monitored for increased adverse reactions (e.g., nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, edema, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, QT prolongation, neutropenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia), especially during the first week of consecutive midostaurin administration in patients with advanced systemic mastocytosis and during the first week of midostaurin administration in each cycle of chemotherapy in patients with acute myeloid leukemia.

Drug and food interactions

Major

midostaurin food

Applies to: Rydapt (midostaurin)

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of midostaurin. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. 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. Ketoconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, has been shown to increase midostaurin systemic exposure (AUC) by greater than 10-fold in healthy volunteers. Increased exposure to midostaurin may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, edema, hyperglycemia, hyperuricemia, QT prolongation, neutropenia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, and anemia.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of midostaurin. Relative to fasting conditions, midostaurin systemic exposure (AUC) increased by approximately 1.2-fold when administered with a standard meal (457 calories; 50 g fat, 21 g proteins, 18 g carbohydrates) and 1.6-fold when administered with a high-fat meal (1007 calories; 66 g fat, 32 g proteins, 64 g carbohydrates), while midostaurin peak plasma concentration (Cmax ) decreased by 20% and 27%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer recommends taking midostaurin with food. Midostaurin was administered with food in clinical trials. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with midostaurin.

Minor

tenofovir food

Applies to: AccessPak for HIV PEP Expanded with Viracept (emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir)

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
