Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 may decrease the plasma concentrations of revumenib and increase plasma concentrations of its active metabolite M1, as revumenib has been shown to be primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. Reduced therapeutic efficacy of revumenib and an increased risk of QT interval prolongation due to increased systemic exposures of M1 may occur. However, pharmacokinetic and clinical data from drug interaction studies are unavailable.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of revumenib and an increased risk of QT interval prolongation should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 inducers. Pharmacologic response to revumenib should be monitored more closely whenever a CYP450 3A4 inducer is added to or withdrawn from therapy. It is advised to perform an electrocardiogram (ECG) prior to the initiation of revumenib, at least once a week for the first 4 weeks, and at least monthly thereafter to monitor for QT prolongation. Revumenib should not be started if baseline QTc is greater than 450 msec. Likewise, treatment should be interrupted and adjusted in accordance with the product labeling in patients who develop QTc prolongation greater than 480 msec. Patients should be counseled to seek immediate medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, syncope, palpitations, irregular heartbeat, and/or shortness of breath.

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of CNS-active agents. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving CNS-active agents should be warned of this interaction and advised to avoid or limit consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how these agents affect them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: In pharmacokinetic studies, revumenib was administered while fasting or with a low fat meal. Revumenib has not been studied with meals of higher fat content and the impact on its pharmacokinetic parameters is unknown.

MONITOR: Grapefruit, grapefruit juice, grapefruit hybrids, pomelos, star-fruit, and Seville oranges may increase the plasma concentrations of revumenib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruits. The extent and clinical significance are unknown. In pharmacokinetic studies in patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia, revumenib area under the concentration-time curve (AUC) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) increased 2-fold following concomitant use with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors posaconazole, itraconazole, and voriconazole, and 2.5-fold following concomitant use with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor cobicistat. However, clinically significant differences in revumenib pharmacokinetics were not observed when used concomitantly with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors fluconazole and isavuconazole. In general the effect of grapefruit juice is concentration-, dose- and preparation-dependent, and can vary widely among brands. Certain preparations of grapefruit juice (e.g., high dose, double strength) have sometimes demonstrated potent inhibition of CYP450 3A4, while other preparations (e.g., low dose, single strength) have typically demonstrated moderate inhibition. Moreover, pharmacokinetic alterations associated with interactions involving grapefruit juice are often subject to a high degree of interpatient variability. Increased exposure to revumenib may increase the risk of QT interval prolongation, which has been associated with ventricular arrhythmias including torsade de pointes and sudden death.

MANAGEMENT: Due to the potential impact of high fat content meals on revumenib absorption and exposure, it is recommended that revumenib be administered while fasting or with a low fat meal (approximately 400-500 calories, with 25% of calories from fat). In addition, if grapefruit, grapefruit juice, grapefruit hybrids, pomelos, star-fruit, or Seville oranges are consumed during treatment with revumenib, assess patient tolerability and monitor for serious adverse effects (e.g., QT prolongation and torsade de pointes arrhythmia, differentiation syndrome, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia).
