Interactions between your drugs

Major

pexidartinib olutasidenib

Applies to: pexidartinib and olutasidenib

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent or moderate inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations and therapeutic efficacy of olutasidenib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. When coadministered with multiple doses of rifampin, a potent CYP450 3A4 inducer, olutasidenib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 43% and 80%, respectively. No data are available for other, less potent CYP450 3A4 inducers.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of olutasidenib with potent or moderate CYP450 3A4 inducers should be avoided.

Drug and food interactions

Major

pexidartinib food

Applies to: pexidartinib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: The presence of food may increase the absorption and toxicity of pexidartinib. Administration of pexidartinib with a high-fat meal increased peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 100% and prolonged the time to reach peak plasma concentration (Tmax) by 2.5 hours.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit or grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentration and risk of adverse effects of pexidartinib, including potentially fatal hepatotoxicity. The mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated metabolism of pexidartinib by certain compounds present in grapefruits. Concomitant administration of itraconazole, a strong CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, increased pexidartinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 48% and 70%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Pexidartinib should be administered on an empty stomach, at least one hour before or two hours after a meal or snack. Consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice should generally be avoided during pexidartinib therapy. If concomitant use is unavoidable, the dose of pexidartinib should be reduced according to the manufacturer's recommendations. If concomitant use of grapefruit or grapefruit juice is discontinued, the dose of pexidartinib may be increased (after 3 plasma half-lives of a strong CYP450 3A4 inhibitor) to the dose that was used prior to consumption of grapefruit or grapefruit juice.

Moderate

olutasidenib food

Applies to: olutasidenib

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Coadministration with a high-fat meal may increase the plasma concentrations of olutasidenib. According to the product labeling, administration of a single 150 mg dose with a high-fat meal (approximately 800 to 1000 calories, with approximately 50% of those calories from fat) increased olutasidenib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 191% and 83%, respectively, in healthy subjects.

MANAGEMENT: Olutasidenib should be administered at about the same time each day, on an empty stomach at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after a meal.

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.
