Interactions between your drugs

Major

nelfinavir polatuzumab vedotin

Applies to: emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir disoproxil and polatuzumab vedotin

MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase exposure to unconjugated monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the anti-mitotic and cytotoxic component of polatuzumab vedotin. Polatuzumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that releases MMAE via proteolytic cleavage, and MMAE has been shown in vitro to be primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. Concomitant use of polatuzumab vedotin with ketoconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, is predicted to increase unconjugated MMAE exposure (AUC) by 45% according to the product labeling. The risk and/or severity of toxicities of polatuzumab vedotin may increase.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when polatuzumab vedotin is used concomitantly with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be closely monitored for development or exacerbation of toxicities such as peripheral neuropathy, myelosuppression, opportunistic infections, tumor lysis syndrome and hepatotoxicity, and the dosing of polatuzumab vedotin adjusted or withheld as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food interactions

Minor

tenofovir food

Applies to: emtricitabine / nelfinavir / tenofovir disoproxil

Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of tenofovir, the active entity of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate. According to the product labeling, administration of the drug following a high-fat meal increased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of tenofovir by approximately 14% and 40%, respectively, compared to administration in the fasting state. However, administration with a light meal did not significantly affect the pharmacokinetics of tenofovir compared to administration in the fasting state. Food delays the time to reach tenofovir Cmax by approximately 1 hour. Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate may be administered without regard to meals.

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.
