Interactions between your drugs

Major

tepotinib deucravacitinib

Applies to: tepotinib 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

tepotinib food

Applies to: tepotinib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of tepotinib. When tepotinib was administered after a high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150 calories from protein, 250 calories from carbohydrate, 500 to 600 calories from fat), tepotinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 2-fold and 1.6-fold, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions.

MANAGEMENT: Tepotinib should be administered with food at approximately the same time each day.

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.
