Drug Interactions between infigratinib and mavorixafor

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may increase the oral bioavailability of infigratinib. Coadministration with a high-fat, high-calorie meal (800 to 1,000 calories, with approximately 50% of total calories from fat) in healthy subjects increased mean infigratinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and total systemic exposure (AUC) by 60% to 80% and 80% to 120%, respectively, and increased the median time to Cmax from 4 hours to 6 hours. When coadministered with a low-fat, low-calorie meal (approximately 330 calories, with 20% of total calories from fat), mean infigratinib Cmax and AUC increased by 90% and 70%, respectively, while the median time to Cmax did not change.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of infigratinib and one of its active metabolites, BHS697, both of which are primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4 in vitro. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit juice but has been reported for other CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Coadministration of infigratinib with multiple doses of itraconazole, a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, increased infigratinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and total systemic exposure (AUC) by 164% and 622%, respectively, and the AUC for the active metabolite, BHS697, by 174%. 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 infigratinib and BHS697 may increase the incidence and severity of serious adverse reactions such as infections, anemia, pyrexia, abdominal pain, hypercalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, ocular toxicity (e.g., retinal pigment epithelial detachment), sepsis, stomatitis, diarrhea, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, increased blood creatinine, increased lipase, and onycholysis.

MANAGEMENT: Infigratinib should be administered on an empty stomach at least one hour before or two hours after food. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or supplements that contain grapefruit during treatment with infigratinib.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit products may significantly increase the plasma concentrations and effects of mavorixafor, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme CYP450 3A4. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. A study examining mavorixafor in combination with the strong CYP450 3A4 and P-glycoprotein inhibitor, itraconazole, suggests an increase in mavorixafor's systemic exposure (AUC) of approximately 2-fold. Clinical data with grapefruit products are not available. Pharmacokinetic interactions involving grapefruit are subject to a high degree of interpatient variability and can also be affected by the product and amount consumed; therefore, the extent to which a given patient may be affected is difficult to predict. Additionally, since mavorixafor is associated with concentration-dependent prolongation of the QT interval, increased levels may potentiate the risk of ventricular arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes and sudden death.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may significantly reduce the peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) of mavorixafor. When a single-dose of mavorixafor (400 mg) was administered with a high-fat meal (1000 calories, 50% fat) to healthy subjects, the Cmax and AUC decreased by 66% and 55%, respectively. Similarly, when the same dose was given with a low-fat meal (500 calories, 25% fat) to healthy subjects, mavorixafor's Cmax and AUC decreased by 55% and 51%, respectively. Additionally, a single dose of mavorixafor (400 mg) administered with a low-fat meal to healthy subjects following an overnight fast resulted in a 14% higher Cmax and an 18% lower AUC than those obtained from subjects who fasted for an additional 4 hours after the dose.

MANAGEMENT: Mavorixafor should be taken on an empty stomach after an overnight fast, 30 minutes before food. Patients should be advised to avoid eating or drinking products containing grapefruit, as this could increase the risk of experiencing adverse effects from mavorixafor such as QT prolongation.
