Interactions between your drugs

Moderate

vemurafenib tivozanib

Applies to: vemurafenib and tivozanib

MONITOR: Coadministration with tivozanib may increase the plasma concentrations and therapeutic effects of drugs that are substrates of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporter. The proposed mechanism, based on in vitro data, is decreased clearance due to inhibition of BCRP-mediated intestinal efflux by tivozanib. The clinical significance of this interaction has not been established; however, it should be taken into consideration with orally administered intestinal BCRP-sensitive substrates such as rosuvastatin.

MANAGEMENT: Caution and clinical monitoring are advised if tivozanib is prescribed with orally administered drugs that are sensitive substrates for BCRP, such as rosuvastatin. If coadministration is necessary, the manufacturer suggests separating the administration times by 2 or more hours.
