Drug Interactions between conivaptan and Kisqali Femara Co-Pack

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations and the risk of adverse effects of ribociclib, which is a substrate of the isoenzyme. In healthy subjects, administration of a single 400 mg dose of ribociclib with ritonavir (100 mg twice daily for 14 days), a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, resulted in a 1.7-fold and 3.2-fold increase in ribociclib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC), respectively, compared to ribociclib administered alone. In addition, administration of erythromycin, a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, is predicted to increase ribociclib Cmax and AUC by 1.3-fold and 1.9-fold, respectively. The risk of adverse effects such as infections, neutropenia, leucopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomatitis, anorexia, alopecia, fatigue, headache, and abnormal liver function may be increased.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of ribociclib with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors should generally be avoided. Alternative agents with no or minimal CYP450 3A4 inhibitory potential are recommended whenever possible. If no alternatives exist, the dose of ribociclib should be reduced to 400 mg once daily. Patients receiving concomitant treatment with a CYP450 3A4 inhibitor should be monitored for the development of ribociclib-related adverse effects. Following discontinuation of the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, the ribociclib dosage should be returned (after at least 5 half-lives of the inhibitor) to that used prior to initiation of the inhibitor.

MONITOR: Coadministration with conivaptan may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme. The mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of CYP450 3A4 activity by conivaptan. In pharmacokinetic studies with drugs that are primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4 such as midazolam, simvastatin, and amlodipine, conivaptan has increased systemic exposure (AUC) by 2- to 3-fold.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if conivaptan must be used concurrently with medications that undergo metabolism by CYP450 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever conivaptan is added to or withdrawn from therapy, or the combination avoided altogether. If a clinical decision is made to discontinue concomitant medications at recommended doses, clinicians should allow an appropriate amount of time following the end of conivaptan administration before resuming these medications.

MONITOR: Coadministration with ribociclib may increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to ribociclib-mediated inhibition of CYP450 3A4 metabolism. In healthy study subjects, administration of midazolam, a sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate, with multiple 400 mg daily doses of ribociclib increased the midazolam peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 2.1-fold and 3.8-fold, respectively, compared to midazolam administered alone. When given at a clinically relevant dose of 600 mg daily, ribociclib is predicted to increase midazolam Cmax and AUC by 2.4-fold and 5.2-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when ribociclib is used concomitantly with drugs that undergo metabolism by CYP450 3A4, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever ribociclib is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
