Interactions between your drugs

Major

ritonavir mirvetuximab soravtansine

Applies to: nirmatrelvir / ritonavir and mirvetuximab soravtansine

MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors may increase the plasma concentrations and effects of unconjugated DM4, the microtubule inhibitor component of mirvetuximab soravtansine. Mirvetuximab soravtansine is a folate receptor alpha (FR-alpha)-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that releases DM4 via proteolytic cleavage, and DM4 has been shown to be primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. Increased concentrations of unconjugated DM4 may increase the risk of adverse effects including ocular toxicity (e.g., visual impairment, corneal disorders, dry eye, photophobia, eye pain, and uveitis), pneumonitis, and peripheral neuropathy. Clinical data are not available. Other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors are not expected to interact.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if mirvetuximab soravtansine is administered in combination with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Close monitoring for adverse reactions including ocular toxicity, pneumonitis, and peripheral neuropathy is advised. Mirvetuximab soravtansine treatment may need to be discontinued, interrupted, or dosage reduced in patients with serious or life-threatening toxicities in accordance with the product labeling. Alternative treatment that does not interfere with mirvetuximab soravtansine metabolism should be considered whenever possible.

Drug and food interactions

Moderate

ritonavir food

Applies to: nirmatrelvir / ritonavir

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Administration with food may modestly affect the bioavailability of ritonavir from the various available formulations. When the oral solution was given under nonfasting conditions, peak ritonavir concentrations decreased 23% and the extent of absorption decreased 7% relative to fasting conditions. Dilution of the oral solution (within one hour of dosing) with 240 mL of chocolate milk or a nutritional supplement (Advera or Ensure) did not significantly affect the extent and rate of ritonavir absorption. When a single 100 mg dose of the tablet was administered with a high-fat meal (907 kcal; 52% fat, 15% protein, 33% carbohydrates), approximately 20% decreases in mean peak concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) were observed relative to administration after fasting. Similar decreases in Cmax and AUC were reported when the tablet was administered with a moderate-fat meal. In contrast, the extent of absorption of ritonavir from the soft gelatin capsule formulation was 13% higher when administered with a meal (615 KCal; 14.5% fat, 9% protein, and 76% carbohydrate) relative to fasting.

MANAGEMENT: Ritonavir should be taken with meals to enhance gastrointestinal tolerability.

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.
