Drug Interactions between futibatinib and nirmatrelvir / ritonavir

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 that can also inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of futibatinib. Futibatinib is a substrate of both the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme and P-gp efflux transporter. Drug interaction studies have shown that single dose administration of futibatinib with multiple doses of itraconazole, a combined potent P-gp and CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, increased futibatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 51% and 41%, respectively, compared to futibatinib alone. Increased exposure to futibatinib may increase the risk and severity of adverse effects such as retinal pigment epithelial detachment, dry eye/corneal keratitis, pyrexia, hyperphosphatemia and soft tissue mineralization, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, fatigue, nail toxicity, urinary tract infection, constipation, diarrhea, dry mouth, increased liver function tests (ALT and AST), stomatitis, abdominal pain, ascites, bile duct obstruction, and musculoskeletal pain.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of futibatinib with dual P-gp and potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 should generally be avoided.

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 that can also inhibit P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may increase the plasma concentrations of futibatinib. Futibatinib is a substrate of both the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme and P-gp efflux transporter. Drug interaction studies have shown that single dose administration of futibatinib with multiple doses of itraconazole, a combined potent P-gp and CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, increased futibatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 51% and 41%, respectively, compared to futibatinib alone. Increased exposure to futibatinib may increase the risk and severity of adverse effects such as retinal pigment epithelial detachment, dry eye/corneal keratitis, pyrexia, hyperphosphatemia and soft tissue mineralization, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, fatigue, nail toxicity, urinary tract infection, constipation, diarrhea, dry mouth, increased liver function tests (ALT and AST), stomatitis, abdominal pain, ascites, bile duct obstruction, and musculoskeletal pain. The interaction has not been studied with other, less potent dual inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and P-gp.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when futibatinib is used with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 that can also inhibit P-gp. Clinical and laboratory monitoring for the development of adverse effects is recommended and the futibatinib dosage adjusted as necessary.
