- Xospata (gilteritinib)
Interactions between your drugs
gilteritinib capmatinib
Applies to: Xospata (gilteritinib), capmatinib
GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with capmatinib may increase the plasma concentrations and risk of adverse effects of drugs that are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) transporters, such as digoxin and rosuvastatin. The proposed mechanism is decreased clearance due to capmatinib-mediated inhibition of intestinal P-gp and/or BCRP efflux transport proteins. Coadministration with capmatinib increased the systemic exposure (AUC0-INF) and peak plasma concentration (Cmax) of digoxin (a P-gp substrate) by 47% and 74%, respectively. Concomitant use of capmatinib increased the AUC0-INF and Cmax of rosuvastatin (a BCRP substrate) by 108% and 204%, respectively.
MANAGEMENT: Coadministration of capmatinib with drugs that are substrates of P-gp and/or BCRP should generally be avoided. However, if concomitant use is unavoidable, caution is advised, particularly with drugs that have a narrow therapeutic range. Clinical and laboratory monitoring should be considered whenever capmatinib is added to or withdrawn from therapy with these drugs, and dosages adjusted as necessary. Patients should be monitored for the development of adverse effects.

Therapeutic duplication warnings
Therapeutic duplication is the use of more than one medicine from the same drug category or therapeutic class to treat the same condition. This can be intentional in cases where drugs with similar actions are used together for demonstrated therapeutic benefit. It can also be unintentional in cases where a patient has been treated by more than one doctor, or had prescriptions filled at more than one pharmacy, and can have potentially adverse consequences.
Multikinase inhibitors
Therapeutic duplication
The recommended maximum number of medicines in the 'multikinase inhibitors' category to be taken concurrently is usually one. Your list includes two medicines belonging to the 'multikinase inhibitors' category:

Note: In certain circumstances, the benefits of taking this combination of drugs may outweigh any risks. Always consult your healthcare provider before making changes to your medications or dosage.
Drug Interaction Classification
Highly clinically significant. Avoid combinations; the risk of the interaction outweighs the benefit. | |
Moderately clinically significant. Usually avoid combinations; use it only under special circumstances. | |
Minimally clinically significant. Minimize risk; assess risk and consider an alternative drug, take steps to circumvent the interaction risk and/or institute a monitoring plan. | |
No interaction information available. |
