Interactions between your drugs
entrectinib telisotuzumab vedotin
Applies to: entrectinib and telisotuzumab vedotin
MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of unconjugated monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the anti-mitotic and cytotoxic component of telisotuzumab vedotin. Telisotuzumab 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. MMAE systemic exposure (AUC) is predicted to increase by 1.4-fold following concomitant administration of telisotuzumab vedotin with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole. It is not known if, and to what extent, MMAE may interact with less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when telisotuzumab vedotin is used concomitantly with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be closely monitored for development or exacerbation of toxicities such as ocular surface disorders (e.g., dry eyes, keratitis, blurred vision), peripheral neuropathy, interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis, and peripheral edema. If serious adverse reactions occur, the dosing of telisotuzumab vedotin should be adjusted or withheld as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food/lifestyle interactions
entrectinib food/lifestyle
Applies to: entrectinib
GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice and Seville oranges may increase the plasma concentrations of entrectinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit and Seville oranges Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice, but pharmacokinetic data are available for the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, itraconazole. When a single 100 mg dose of entrectinib was administered with itraconazole, entrectinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 1.7- and 6-fold, respectively. Coadministration of entrectinib with a moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is predicted to increase entrectinib Cmax and AUC by 2.9- and 3-fold, respectively. In general, the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Increased exposure to entrectinib may increase the risk and/or severity of adverse effects such as cognitive impairment, mood disorders, dizziness, sleep disturbances, liver enzyme elevations, hyperuricemia, congestive heart failure, edema, myocarditis, QT prolongation, vision problems, anemia, and neutropenia.
MANAGEMENT: Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and Seville oranges during treatment with entrectinib.
