Interactions between your drugs
ibrutinib osimertinib
Applies to: ibrutinib and osimertinib
Coadministration with osimertinib may alter the plasma concentrations of drugs that are primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. In vitro, osimertinib has been shown to be a competitive inhibitor as well as inducer of CYP450 3A4. However, a clinically significant inhibitory effect on CYP450 3A4 has not been demonstrated in clinical drug interaction studies. In a pharmacokinetic study of 49 patients with non-small cell lung cancer, coadministration of osimertinib with the sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate simvastatin decreased the area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of simvastatin by approximately 9% and 23%, respectively. These reductions are also not considered clinically significant. Based on these observations, osimertinib may be administered with CYP450 3A4 substrates without the need for increased clinical monitoring.

Drug and food interactions
ibrutinib food
Applies to: ibrutinib
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or Seville oranges may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of ibrutinib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Pharmacokinetic modeling suggests that other moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors such as diltiazem and erythromycin may increase ibrutinib systemic exposure (AUC) by 6- to 9-fold under fasting condition. The safety and efficacy of these exposures are unknown. The highest ibrutinib dose evaluated in clinical trials was 12.5 mg/kg (actual doses of 840 to 1400 mg) given for 28 days, which yielded single dose AUC values that were approximately 50% greater than steady-state exposures seen at the highest indicated dose of 560 mg.
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food increases the oral bioavailability of ibrutinib. The mechanism of interaction is unknown. According to the product labeling, administration with food increases ibrutinib exposure approximately 2-fold compared to administration after overnight fasting.
MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with ibrutinib should avoid consumption of Seville oranges, grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and any supplement containing grapefruit extract. Ibrutinib should be taken once daily at approximately the same time each day.
