Interactions between your drugs

Major

telotristat ethyl erdafitinib

Applies to: telotristat and erdafitinib

ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration with moderate inducers of CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations and therapeutic effects of erdafitinib. The mechanism is induction of CYP450 2C9- or 3A4-mediated metabolism of erdafitinib, which has been shown to be metabolized by these isoenzymes.

MANAGEMENT: According to the manufacturer, if a moderate CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 inducer is coadministered at the start of erdafitinib therapy, the recommended dose of erdafitinib should be administered. If a moderate CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 inducer is coadministered after the initial dose increase period, the dose of erdafitinib may be increased up to 9 mg once daily based on serum phosphate levels and tolerability. When a moderate CYP450 2C9 or 3A4 inducer is discontinued, the current dose of erdafitinib may be continued in the absence of erdafitinib toxicity.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

telotristat ethyl food

Applies to: telotristat

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food increases the systemic exposure to both telotristat ethyl and its active metabolite, telotristat. Following administration of a single 500 mg dose of telotristat ethyl (twice the recommended dose) with a high-fat meal, telotristat ethyl peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were 112% and 264% higher, respectively, compared to administration under fasted conditions. The Cmax and AUC values for telotristat were also increased by 47% and 33%, respectively. The in vitro inhibitory potency of telotristat towards tryptophan hydroxylase has been shown to be approximately 29 times higher than that of the parent drug.

MANAGEMENT: Telotristat ethyl should be administered with food.

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.
