Interactions between your drugs

Major

medroxyPROGESTERone vorasidenib

Applies to: conjugated estrogens / medroxyprogesterone and vorasidenib

ADDITIONAL CONTRACEPTION RECOMMENDED: Concomitant use with vorasidenib may decrease the plasma concentrations and efficacy of contraceptive hormones. In vitro studies show that vorasidenib is an inducer of CYP450 3A, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of sex hormones. Decreased hormone concentrations can result in contraception failure and/or increase in breakthrough bleeding. Vorasidenib can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.

MANAGEMENT: Hormonal contraceptives, including oral, injectable, transdermal, and implantable forms, may not be reliable during concomitant therapy with vorasidenib. Since the use of vorasidenib is likely associated with embryo-fetal harm, it is particularly important that patients not become pregnant during treatment. Therefore, hormonal contraceptives should not be used as the sole method of birth control in women of childbearing potential treated with vorasidenib. Women of childbearing potential should use a highly effective, non-hormonal method of contraception during treatment with vorasidenib and for 3 months after the last dose. Male patients with female partners of reproductive potential should use effective contraception during treatment with vorasidenib and for 3 months after the last dose

conjugated estrogens vorasidenib

Applies to: conjugated estrogens / medroxyprogesterone and vorasidenib

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use with multiple doses of vorasidenib may decrease the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A. Vorasidenib is predicted to be an inducer of CYP450 3A resulting in decreased plasma concentrations of agents that are metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction may be significant for sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrates or those that demonstrate a narrow therapeutic index. Clinical and pharmacokinetic data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of vorasidenib with substrates of CYP450 3A should be avoided due to the potential for reduced efficacy

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

vorasidenib food

Applies to: vorasidenib

GENERALLY AVOID: Due to induction of CYP450 1A2, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of vorasidenib, smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib may decrease its plasma concentrations and anti-tumor effect. Clinical and pharmacokinetic data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Patient should be advised to avoid smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib because it may reduce efficacy of the therapy.

Coadministration with grapefruit juice may increase the bioavailability of oral estrogens. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall induced by certain compounds present in grapefruits. In a small, randomized, crossover study, the administration of ethinyl estradiol with grapefruit juice (compared to herbal tea) increased peak plasma drug concentration (Cmax) by 37% and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 28%. Based on these findings, grapefruit juice is unlikely to affect the overall safety profile of ethinyl estradiol. However, as with other drug interactions involving grapefruit juice, the pharmacokinetic alterations are subject to a high degree of interpatient variability. Also, the effect on other estrogens has not been studied.

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.
