Interactions between your drugs

Major

edoxaban mavorixafor

Applies to: Savaysa (edoxaban) and mavorixafor

ADJUST DOSE: Coadministration with inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may increase the plasma concentrations of edoxaban, which is a substrate of the efflux transporter. In healthy volunteers, single-dose edoxaban systemic exposure (AUC) increased approximately 80% to 90% by erythromycin, dronedarone, and ketoconazole; 70% to 80% by cyclosporine and quinidine; 50% by verapamil; and 40% by amiodarone. The peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of edoxaban also increased by approximately 45% to 90% with these drugs.

MANAGEMENT: When used for the treatment of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, the manufacturer recommends that edoxaban dosage be reduced to 30 mg once daily in patients receiving concomitant treatment with certain P-gp inhibitors including azithromycin, clarithromycin, erythromycin, oral itraconazole, oral ketoconazole, quinidine, and verapamil. This dosage recommendation is based on data from a clinical study, the Hokusai VTE study, and is limited to use with the specific P-gp inhibitors mentioned. Other P-gp inhibitors were not permitted in the study, and patients on antiretroviral therapy (ritonavir, nelfinavir, indinavir, saquinavir) as well as cyclosporine were excluded from the study. Following discontinuation of the P-gp inhibitor, edoxaban dosage should be returned to the regular dosage of 60 mg once daily. No dosage adjustment is recommended for edoxaban when used in the treatment of nonvalvular atrial fibrillation.

Drug and food interactions

Major

mavorixafor food

Applies to: mavorixafor

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.

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.
