cladribine deucravacitinib

Applies to: cladribine 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

cladribine food

Applies to: cladribine

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Oral cladribine may increase the bioavailability of other drugs, which may increase the risk or severity of adverse reactions. Cladribine tablets may contain hydroxypropyl betadex, which could form a complex with the active ingredients of other drugs, especially agents with low solubility. The clinical relevance of this interaction remains unknown.

MANAGEMENT: Administration of oral cladribine should be separated from any other oral drug by at least 3 hours.
