Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

QUEtiapine mavacamten

Applies to: quetiapine and mavacamten

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of quetiapine, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In 18 psychiatric patients receiving quetiapine 300 mg twice daily, addition of the potent CYP450 3A4 inducer carbamazepine (200 mg three times daily) decreased mean quetiapine peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 80% and 87%, respectively, and increased oral clearance (Cl/F) by 7.5-fold compared to quetiapine administered alone. The interaction has also been reported with phenytoin, another potent CYP450 3A4 inducer. In ten subjects with various affective disorders, coadministration of quetiapine (250 mg orally three times a day) with phenytoin (100 mg orally three times a day) decreased the mean steady-state Cmax, trough plasma concentration (Cmin) and AUC of quetiapine by 66%, 89% and 80%, respectively. The mean oral clearance increased by 5.5-fold. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers.

MANAGEMENT: Pharmacologic response to quetiapine should be monitored more closely whenever a CYP450 3A4 inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy, and the quetiapine dosage adjusted as necessary. Patients should be advised to notify their physician if their symptoms worsen or their condition changes.

Drug and food interactions

Major

mavacamten food

Applies to: mavacamten

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of mavacamten. 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. According to the prescribing information, mavacamten is primarily metabolized by CYP450 2C19 (74%) and to a lesser extent by CYP450 3A4 (18%) and 2C9 (8%). When mavacamten (25 mg) was coadministered with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor verapamil (sustained-release 240 mg) in intermediate and normal metabolizers of CYP450 2C19, mavacamten systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 15% and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) increased by 52%. Concomitant use of mavacamten with diltiazem, another moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, in CYP450 2C19 poor metabolizers is predicted to increase mavacamten AUC and Cmax by up to 55% and 42%, respectively. Concomitant use of mavacamten (15 mg) with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg once daily) is predicted to increase mavacamten AUC and Cmax by up to 130% and 90%, respectively. Because mavacamten reduces systolic contraction and left ventricular ejection fraction, increased exposure may potentiate the risk of heart failure. 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.

Food does not affect the extent of absorption of mavacamten. No clinically significant difference in mavacamten exposure was observed following administration with a high-fat meal. However, the time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) was increased by 4 hours.

MANAGEMENT: Mavacamten may be administered with or without food. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with mavacamten.

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.
