Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of P-glycoprotein may increase the plasma concentrations of vismodegib, which has been shown in vitro to be a substrate of the efflux transporter. The potential for increased pharmacologic effects of vismodegib, including adverse effects such as muscle spasm, alopecia, dysgeusia/ageusia, weight loss, fatigue, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, decreased appetite, constipation and arthralgia, should be considered.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if vismodegib is used in combination with P-glycoprotein inhibitors.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral absorption and bioavailability of sorafenib. According to the product labeling, sorafenib bioavailability was reduced by 29% when administered with a high-fat meal compared to administration in the fasted state. When given with a moderate-fat meal, bioavailability was similar to that in the fasted state.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure maximal and consistent oral absorption, sorafenib should be taken at least one hour before or two hours after eating.
