Drug Interaction Report

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with erdafitinib may alter the plasma concentrations of drugs that are substrates of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme, resulting in increased toxicity or decreased efficacy of these drugs. In vitro, erdafitinib has been shown to be a time-dependent inhibitor as well as inducer of CYP450 3A4. However, no pharmacokinetic data are available from drug interaction studies.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of erdafitinib and sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrates or substrates with narrow therapeutic ranges should generally be avoided.

GENERALLY AVOID: Grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, and starfruit may significantly increase the plasma concentrations and pharmacologic effects of nirogacestat. The proposed mechanism is inhibition of CYP450 3A4-mediated first-pass metabolism in the gut wall by certain compounds present in these fruits. Coadministration of multiple doses of nirogacestat (150 mg twice daily) with the moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors erythromycin and fluconazole are predicted to increase the AUC of nirogacestat by 2.73-fold and 3.18-fold, respectively. The interaction has not been studied with grapefruit, Seville oranges, or starfruit. 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 systemic exposure to nirogacestat may increase the risk of adverse effects including diarrhea, ovarian toxicity, hepatotoxicity, electrolyte abnormalities, and non-melanoma skin cancers.

MANAGEMENT: Patients treated with nirogacestat should avoid consumption of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, starfruit, or any supplement containing grapefruit.
