Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

PAZOPanib tovorafenib

Applies to: pazopanib and tovorafenib

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 2C8 may increase the plasma concentrations and effects of tovorafenib, which has been found in vitro to be primarily metabolized by CYP450 2C8 and aldehyde oxidase, and to a lesser extent, by the isoenzymes CYP450 3A, 2C9, and 2C19. Increased plasma concentrations may increase the risk for adverse drug reactions including but not limited to, hemorrhage, skin toxicity, photosensitivity, hepatotoxicity, and reduced growth velocity in patients 18 years of age or younger. However, data from formal clinical drug interaction studies are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if tovorafenib is prescribed in combination with CYP450 2C8 inhibitors. Patients should be monitored for the development of hemorrhage, skin toxicity, photosensitivity, hepatotoxicity, and, in patients 18 years of age or younger, reduced growth velocity. Alternative therapy may need to be considered if a drug interaction is suspected.

Drug and food interactions

Major

PAZOPanib food

Applies to: pazopanib

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of pazopanib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. Although not studied, the interaction may increase the risk of QT interval prolongation and torsade de pointes arrhythmia as well as severe and fatal hepatotoxicity associated with the use of pazopanib.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food increases the oral bioavailability of pazopanib. The mechanism of interaction is unknown. Administration of pazopanib with a high-fat or low-fat meal results in an approximately 2-fold increase in peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC).

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with pazopanib should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, and any supplement containing grapefruit extract. Pazopanib should be administered at least one hour before or two 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.
