Drug Interaction Report

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.

MONITOR: Coadministration with treosulfan may increase the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or the efflux transporter P-glycoprotein (P-gp). The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to inhibition of these routes of elimination due to treosulfan. According to physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling, treosulfan is predicted to be a weak to moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitor and weak inhibitor of CYP450 2C19, with negligible inhibitory effects on P-gp. However, according to the manufacturer, in vitro studies were unable to exclude potential drug-drug interactions with high plasma concentrations of treosulfan and CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or P-gp substrates.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is recommended if treosulfan is coadministered with substrates of CYP450 3A4, 2C19, and/or P-gp, particularly those with a narrow therapeutic range. Some authorities advise that if concomitant use is required, the dosage of these substrates should be administered either 2 hours before or 8 hours after administration of the treosulfan infusion. The prescribing information of the substrates may be consulted for potential dose reductions.

Ribociclib may increase the blood levels and effects of letrozole. You may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. Contact your doctor if your condition changes or you experience increased side effects. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Patients should not consume pomegranates, pomegranate juice, grapefruit, or grapefruit juice during treatment with ribociclib unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Pomegranate juice or grapefruit juice can increase the blood levels of ribociclib. You may be more likely to experience side effects such as nausea; vomiting; diarrhea; loss of appetite; abdominal pain; mouth sores; hair loss; weakness; and impaired bone marrow function resulting in low numbers of different types of blood cells, which can increase the risk of anemia, bleeding problems, and infections. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.
