Interactions between your drugs

Major

telaprevir erdafitinib

Applies to: telaprevir and erdafitinib

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration of erdafitinib with potent inhibitors of CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations and risk of toxicity of erdafitinib, which is a substrate of these isoenzymes. When coadministered with fluconazole, a strong CYP450 2C9 inhibitor and moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, erdafitinib mean ratios for Cmax and AUC were 121% and 148%, respectively, relative to erdafitinib alone. Similarly, when coadministered with itraconazole, a strong CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, erdafitinib mean ratios for Cmax and AUC were 105% and 134%, respectively, relative to erdafitinib alone.

MANAGEMENT: Coadministration of erdafitinib with potent inhibitors of CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 should generally be avoided. If concomitant use is unavoidable, patients should be closely monitored for the development of adverse effects. Dosage adjustments as well as clinical and laboratory monitoring of erdafitinib should be considered whenever a CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 inhibitor is added to or withdrawn from therapy.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

telaprevir food

Applies to: telaprevir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food significantly enhances the oral bioavailability of telaprevir. When given with a meal containing 533 kcal and 21 g fat, telaprevir systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 237% compared to administration under fasting conditions. The type of meal also affects the exposure to telaprevir. Relative to fasting, telaprevir AUC increased by approximately 117% with a low-fat meal (249 kcal; 3.6 g fat) and 330% with a high-fat meal (928 kcal; 56 g fat). In Phase 3 clinical trials, telaprevir doses were administered within 30 minutes of completing a meal or snack containing approximately 20 grams of fat.

MANAGEMENT: Telaprevir should be administered with food containing approximately 20 grams of fat. Patients should be advised that the fat content of the meal or snack is critical to the absorption of telaprevir. Food taken with telaprevir should be ingested within 30 minutes prior to each dose. Examples of some foods that could be taken with telaprevir include: bagel with cream cheese; half cup of nuts; 3 tablespoons of peanut butter; 1 cup of ice cream; 2 ounces of American or cheddar cheese; 2 ounces of potato chips; or half cup of trail mix.

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.
