Interactions between your drugs

Major

alpelisib deucravacitinib

Applies to: alpelisib and deucravacitinib

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of deucravacitinib with other immunosuppressive agents may potentiate the risk of infections as well as lymphoma and other malignancies. Serious infections have been reported in patients with psoriasis who received deucravacitinib. The most common serious infections reported with deucravacitinib included pneumonia and COVID-19. Herpes zoster and herpes simplex viral reactivation were also reported during clinical studies with deucravacitinib, as well as malignancies including lymphoma.

MANAGEMENT: The safety and efficacy of deucravacitinib in combination with immunosuppressive agents has not been evaluated. The manufacturer recommends that the concomitant use of deucravacitinib with potent immunosuppressants (e.g., azathioprine, cyclosporine) should be avoided. Patients receiving deucravacitinib should be closely monitored for the development of signs and symptoms of infection during and after treatment, including the possible development of tuberculosis in patients who tested negative for latent tuberculosis infection prior to initiating therapy. If a serious infection develops, deucravacitinib should be interrupted until the infection is controlled.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

alpelisib food

Applies to: alpelisib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of alpelisib. When administered with a high-fat high-calorie meal (985 calories with 58.1 g of fat) or a low-fat low-calorie meal (334 calories with 8.7 g of fat) the AUC and Cmax of a single dose of alpelisib was increased by 73% and 84% and 77% and 145%, respectively. There were no clinically significant differences in alpelisib AUC between the two types of meals. In addition, food appears to have a more pronounced effect on the solubility of alpelisib than gastric pH. When coadministered with a single 300 mg dose of alpelisib, ranitidine decreased the absorption and overall exposure of alpelisib. Following administration of ranitidine with a low-fat low-calorie meal, the mean AUC and Cmax of alpelisib was decreased by 21% and 36%, respectively. Administration of ranitidine under fasting conditions reduced the mean AUC and Cmax of alpelisib by 30% and 51%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, alpelisib should be administered with a meal.

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.
