Drug Interaction Report

GENERALLY AVOID: Concomitant use with multiple doses of vorasidenib may decrease the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A. Vorasidenib is predicted to be an inducer of CYP450 3A resulting in decreased plasma concentrations of agents that are metabolized by the isoenzyme. The interaction may be significant for sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrates or those that demonstrate a narrow therapeutic index. Clinical and pharmacokinetic data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of vorasidenib with substrates of CYP450 3A should be avoided due to the potential for reduced efficacy

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of ivacaftor. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Elexacaftor and tezacaftor are also CYP450 3A4 substrates in vitro and may interact similarly with grapefruit juice, whereas lumacaftor is not expected to interact.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: According to prescribing information, systemic exposure to ivacaftor increased approximately 2.5- to 4-fold, systemic exposure to elexacaftor increased approximately 1.9- to 2.5-fold, and systemic exposure to lumacaftor increased approximately 2-fold following administration with fat-containing foods relative to administration in a fasting state. Tezacaftor exposure is not significantly affected by administration of fat-containing foods.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with ivacaftor-containing medications should avoid consumption of grapefruit juice and any food that contains grapefruit or Seville oranges. All ivacaftor-containing medications should be administered with fat-containing foods such as eggs, avocados, nuts, meat, butter, peanut butter, cheese pizza, and whole-milk dairy products. A typical cystic fibrosis diet will satisfy this requirement.

GENERALLY AVOID: Due to induction of CYP450 1A2, the isoenzyme primarily responsible for the metabolic clearance of vorasidenib, smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib may decrease its plasma concentrations and anti-tumor effect. Clinical and pharmacokinetic data are currently lacking.

MANAGEMENT: Patient should be advised to avoid smoking tobacco during treatment with vorasidenib because it may reduce efficacy of the therapy.
