Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

brentuximab vedotin glecaprevir

Applies to: brentuximab and glecaprevir / pibrentasvir

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may increase the plasma concentrations of monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the microtubule-disrupting component of brentuximab vedotin. In vitro, MMAE was found to be a substrate of the P-gp efflux transporter.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when brentuximab is used with P-gp inhibitors. Close monitoring for adverse effects including neutropenia, infection, peripheral neuropathy, and hepatotoxicity is recommended.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

glecaprevir food

Applies to: glecaprevir / pibrentasvir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of glecaprevir and pibrentasvir. Relative to fasting conditions, mean glecaprevir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 83% to 163% and mean pibrentasvir AUC increased by 40% to 53% when administered with moderate to high fat meals.

MANAGEMENT: Glecaprevir-pibrentasvir should be administered with food.

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.
