Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Coadministration with inducers of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein (P-gp) may decrease the plasma concentrations of silodosin, which is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and efflux transporter.

MANAGEMENT: The potential for diminished pharmacologic effects of silodosin should be considered during coadministration with CYP450 3A4 and/or P-gp inducers. Alternative treatments may be required if an interaction is suspected.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit juice may increase the plasma concentrations of ivosidenib. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in grapefruit. Inhibition of hepatic CYP450 3A4 may also contribute. Pharmacokinetic data are available for the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, itraconazole, and the moderate inhibitor, fluconazole. When a single 250 mg dose of ivosidenib was administered with itraconazole 200 mg once daily for 18 days, ivosidenib systemic exposure (AUC) increased to 269% of control, with no change in peak plasma concentration (Cmax). Based on physiologically-based pharmacokinetic modeling, coadministration of a 500 mg dose of ivosidenib with fluconazole (dosed to steady-state) is predicted to increase ivosidenib single-dose AUC to 173% of control, while multiple-dosing of both is predicted to increase ivosidenib steady-state Cmax and AUC to 152% and 190% of control, respectively. 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. Increased exposure to ivosidenib may increase the risk of QT interval prolongation, which has been associated with ventricular arrhythmias including torsade de pointes and sudden death.

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with a high-fat meal may increase the plasma concentrations of ivosidenib. According to the product labeling, administration of a single dose with a high-fat meal (approximately 900 to 1000 calories; 500 to 600 calories in fat, 250 calories in carbohydrate, 150 calories in protein) increased ivosidenib Cmax and AUC by 98% and 25%, respectively, in healthy study subjects.

MANAGEMENT: Ivosidenib may be administered with or without food, but should not be administered with a high-fat meal. Patients should avoid consumption of grapefruit and grapefruit juice during treatment with ivosidenib.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral bioavailability of silodosin. The effect of a moderate-fat, moderate-calorie meal on silodosin pharmacokinetics was variable and decreased silodosin maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) by approximately 18% to 43% and systemic exposure (AUC) by 4% to 49% across three different studies. The maximum effect of food (i.e., coadministration with a high-fat, high-calorie meal) on the pharmacokinetics of silodosin was not evaluated. Safety and efficacy clinical trials for silodosin were always conducted in the presence of food intake.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be instructed to take silodosin with a meal to reduce the risk of adverse events.
