Drug Interactions between Lumakras and rufinamide

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of rufinamide. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral absorption and bioavailability of rufinamide. In healthy volunteers, administration of a single 400 mg dose of rufinamide with food resulted in an approximately 56% increase in mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and a 34% increase in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to administration during a fasting state.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, it is preferable to administer rufinamide with food. Patients receiving rufinamide should be advised to avoid consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how rufinamide affects them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

Food does not appear to have a clinically significant effect on the oral bioavailability of sotorasib. When a 960 mg dose of sotorasib was administered to study patients with a high-fat, high-calorie meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories; 150, 250, and 500 to 600 calories from protein, carbohydrate, and fat, respectively), sotorasib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) did not change while systemic exposure (AUC 0-24 hours) increased by 25% compared to administration under fasted conditions. Sotorasib can be administered with or without food at approximately the same time each day.
