Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

treosulfan pexidartinib

Applies to: treosulfan and pexidartinib

MONITOR: Coadministration with treosulfan may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or the efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of these routes of elimination due to treosulfan. According to physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling, treosulfan is predicted to be a weak to moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor and weak inhibitor of CYP450 2C19, with negligible inhibitory effects on P-gp. However, according to the manufacturer, in vitro studies were unable to exclude potential drug-drug interactions with high plasma concentrations of treosulfan and CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or P-gp substrates.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if treosulfan is coadministered with substrates of CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or P-gp, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Some authorities advise that if concomitant use is required, the dosage of these substrates should be administered either 2 hours before or 8 hours after administration of the treosulfan infusion. The prescribing information of the substrates may be consulted for potential dose reductions.

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.

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.
