DOXOrubicin rolapitant

Applies to: doxorubicin and rolapitant

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with rolapitant may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter. When a 0.5 mg dose of digoxin, a P-gp probe substrate, was administered with a 180 mg dose of rolapitant, digoxin peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 70% and 30%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of rolapitant with drugs that are P-gp substrates should generally be avoided. If concomitant administration is unavoidable, caution is advised, particularly with drugs that have a narrow therapeutic range. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring may be appropriate for some drugs whenever rolapitant is added to or withdrawn from therapy.
