Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

tenofovir adagrasib

Applies to: Biktarvy (bictegravir / emtricitabine / tenofovir alafenamide) and adagrasib

MONITOR: Coadministration with adagrasib may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are metabolized by the CYP450 3A4, 2D6 or 2C9 enzymatic pathways or are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux membrane transporter. When adagrasib 400 mg twice daily (two-thirds the approved recommended dosage) was administered with midazolam (a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate) and dextromethorphan (a sensitive CYP450 2D6 substrate) in pharmacokinetic studies, midazolam peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 4.8- and 21-fold, respectively, while dextromethorphan Cmax and AUC increased by 1.9- and 1.8-fold, respectively. Adagrasib at the approved recommended dosage of 600 mg twice daily is predicted to increase midazolam Cmax by 3.1-fold and AUC by 31-fold; dextromethorphan Cmax by 1.7-fold and AUC by 2.4-fold; warfarin (a sensitive CYP450 2C9 substrate) Cmax by 1.1-fold and AUC by 2.9-fold; and digoxin (a P-gp substrate) Cmax by 1.9-fold and AUC by 1.5-fold. These results suggest that adagrasib is a potent inhibitor of CYP450 3A4 and may be a moderate inhibitor of CYP450 2D6 and 2C9 at the approved recommended dosage of 600 mg twice daily.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when adagrasib is used concomitantly with drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4, CYP450 2D6, CYP450 2C9 and/or P-gp, particularly sensitive substrates or those with a narrow therapeutic range. Substitution for these medications is recommended when possible, or initiate with lower dosages and monitor patient clinical response/tolerance and titrate accordingly if coadministration is required. The prescribing information for concomitant medications should be consulted to assess the benefits versus risks of coadministration and for any dosage adjustments that may be required.

bictegravir adagrasib

Applies to: Biktarvy (bictegravir / emtricitabine / tenofovir alafenamide) and adagrasib

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 may increase the plasma concentrations of bictegravir. According to the product labeling, bictegravir is a substrate of both CYP450 3A4 and UGT1A1; however, the extent to which each enzymatic pathway contributes to the metabolic clearance of bictegravir has not been reported. In healthy volunteers studied under fasted conditions, administration of a single 75 mg dose of bictegravir during treatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor voriconazole (300 mg twice daily) increased mean bictegravir peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 9% and 61%, respectively, compared to administration of bictegravir alone. In addition, in healthy volunteers studied under fed conditions, administration of a single 75 mg dose of bictegravir during treatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 and UGT1A1 inhibitor atazanavir (400 mg once daily) increased mean bictegravir AUC by 315%, compared to administration of bictegravir alone.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when bictegravir is used with CYP450 3A4 and UGT1A1 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for increased adverse effects such as diarrhea, nausea, and vomiting.

Drug and food interactions

Major

adagrasib food

Applies to: adagrasib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Adagrasib can cause concentration-dependent, prolongation of the QT interval. Theoretically, coadministration with grapefruit juice before adagrasib has reached steady-state may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of adagrasib, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. 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 the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, itraconazole. In a clinical drug interaction study, adagrasib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were increased by 2.4-fold and 4-fold, respectively following concomitant use of a single dose of adagrasib (200 mg) with itraconazole. No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of adagrasib at steady state were predicted when used concomitantly with itraconazole. 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 adagrasib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as QT prolongation, diarrhea, fatigue, musculoskeletal pain, hepatotoxicity, and renal impairment.

Adagrasib pharmacokinetics were not significantly affected when administered with a high-fat meal.

MANAGEMENT: Although clinical data are lacking, it may be advisable to avoid the consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice until adagrasib concentrations have reached steady state (after approximately 8 days). Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope. Adagrasib may be administered with or without food.

tenofovir food

Applies to: Biktarvy (bictegravir / emtricitabine / tenofovir alafenamide)

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.
