Drug Interactions between mitotane and revumenib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Fat-rich food enhances the absorption of mitotane. One study evaluated blood levels of mitotane (o,p'-DDD) after subjects ingested a single dose of 2 g administered using various delivery vehicles (e.g., tablets, granules, milk, chocolate or oil emulsion). Mitotane plasma levels were significantly higher for milk, chocolate, and oil emulsion when compared to those who received tablets or granules alone. In the same study, mitotane levels were evaluated in subjects following long-term treatment (total dose of 200 g over 30 to 60 days) in tablet, oil emulsion, or milk formulations. Significantly higher mean plasma levels were recorded in subjects who received mitotane as an oil emulsion or mixed in milk, when compared to tablets alone. Additionally, the recovery of o,p'-DDD from the feces was about 5 times higher in subjects who received tablets alone, suggesting absorption was reduced when compared to subjects who received mitotane mixed with a fat-rich vehicle (e.g., oil emulsion or milk).

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use of mitotane with central nervous system (CNS) depressants, including alcohol, may potentiate adverse effects such as somnolence and sedation.

MANAGEMENT: According to product labeling, mitotane tablets should be taken during meals containing fat-rich food (e.g., milk, chocolate, or oil) and with a full glass of water. Patients should be advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol and to avoid activities requiring mental alertness such as driving or operating hazardous machinery until they know how the medication affects them.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: In pharmacokinetic studies, revumenib was administered while fasting or with a low fat meal. Revumenib has not been studied with meals of higher fat content and the impact on its pharmacokinetic parameters is unknown.

MONITOR: Grapefruit, grapefruit juice, grapefruit hybrids, pomelos, star-fruit, and Seville oranges may increase the plasma concentrations of revumenib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. The extent and clinical significance are unknown. In pharmacokinetic studies in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia, revumenib area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) increased 2-fold following concomitant use with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors posaconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole, and 2.5-fold following concomitant use with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor cobicistat. However, clinically significant differences in revumenib pharmacokinetics were not observed when used concomitantly with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors fluconazole and isavuconazole. 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. Moreover, pharmacokinetic alterations associated with interactions involving grapefruit juice are often subject to a high degree of interpatient variability. Increased exposure to revumenib may increase the risk of QT interval prolongation, which has been associated with ventricular arrhythmias including torsade de pointes and sudden death.

MANAGEMENT: Due to the potential impact of high fat content meals on revumenib absorption and exposure, it is recommended that revumenib be administered while fasting or with a low fat meal (approximately 400-500 calories, with 25% of calories from fat). In addition, if grapefruit, grapefruit juice, grapefruit hybrids, pomelos, star-fruit, or Seville oranges are consumed during treatment with revumenib, assess patient tolerability and monitor for serious adverse effects (e.g., QT prolongation and torsade de pointes arrhythmia, differentiation syndrome, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia).
