Drug Interactions between brigatinib and olutasidenib

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of brigatinib. 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. Itraconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, has been shown to double brigatinib systemic exposure (AUC) in healthy volunteers. Increased exposure to brigatinib may increase the risk of adverse effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hypertension, bradycardia, hyperglycemia, visual disturbances, lymphopenia, anemia, and elevations in pancreatic enzymes and creatine phosphokinase.

Food does not significantly affect the oral bioavailability of brigatinib. When brigatinib was administered to healthy volunteers after a high-fat meal (920 calories; 59 g fat, 58 g carbohydrates, 40 g proteins), brigatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) decreased by 13% and systemic exposure (AUC) did not change compared to administration after overnight fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Brigatinib may be taken with or without food. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with brigatinib.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Coadministration with a high-fat meal may increase the plasma concentrations of olutasidenib. According to the product labeling, administration of a single 150 mg dose with a high-fat meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories, with approximately 50% of those calories from fat) increased olutasidenib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 191% and 83%, respectively, in healthy subjects.

MANAGEMENT: Olutasidenib should be administered at about the same time each day, on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal.
