Interactions between your drugs
voriconazole tisotumab vedotin
Applies to: voriconazole and tisotumab vedotin
MONITOR CLOSELY: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of unconjugated monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE), the anti-mitotic and cytotoxic component of tisotumab vedotin. Tisotumab vedotin is an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that releases MMAE via proteolytic cleavage, and MMAE has been shown in vitro to be primarily metabolized by CYP450 3A4. Although tisotumab vedotin has not been studied with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors, data for another ADC that contains MMAE (brentuximab vedotin) have been reported. When brentuximab vedotin was administered with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole, MMAE peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 25% and 34%, respectively, with no change in ADC exposure. Using a model-based approach to account for the fact that MMAE exposures are decreased after multiple doses by 20% to 50% compared to the first dose, the adjusted increase in MMAE AUC by ketoconazole is predicted to be 73%. Similar effects on unconjugated MMAE and ADC are expected for tisotumab vedotin when coadministered with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors.
MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when tisotumab vedotin is used concomitantly with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be closely monitored for development or exacerbation of toxicities such as ocular disorders (dry eyes, conjunctivitis, blepharitis, keratitis, corneal ulceration, blurred vision, vision loss), peripheral neuropathy, hemorrhage and pneumonitis, and the dosing of tisotumab vedotin adjusted or withheld as necessary in accordance with the product labeling.

Drug and food interactions
voriconazole food
Applies to: voriconazole
ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food reduces the oral absorption and bioavailability of voriconazole. According to the product labeling, administration of multiple doses of voriconazole with high-fat meals decreased the mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) by 34% and 24%, respectively, when the drug is administered as a tablet, and by 58% and 37%, respectively, when administered as the oral suspension.
MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal oral absorption, voriconazole tablets and oral suspension should be taken at least one hour before or after a meal.
