Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of the CYP450 3A4 isoenzyme and/or P-glycoprotein efflux transporter may increase the plasma concentrations of maraviroc, which is a substrate of both. According to the product labeling, administration of maraviroc (100 mg twice a day) with the potent CYP450 3A4/P-glycoprotein inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg once a day) increased the mean maraviroc peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 3.5- and 5-fold, respectively, compared to administration alone. When the same dosage of maraviroc was administered with ritonavir (100 mg twice a day), maraviroc Cmax increased by nearly 1.3-fold and AUC by 2.6-fold. An even greater increase of nearly 5-fold in Cmax and 10-fold in AUC was observed during coadministration of maraviroc and saquinavir/ritonavir (1000 mg/100 mg twice a day). At 300 mg twice a day, mean maraviroc Cmax increased by approximately 2-fold and AUC by 3.6-fold during coadministration with atazanavir (400 mg once a day). When the same dosage of maraviroc was given with atazanavir/ritonavir (300 mg/100 mg once a day), maraviroc Cmax increased by 2.7-fold and AUC increased by nearly 5-fold. During coadministration with lopinavir/ritonavir (400 mg/100 mg twice a day), maraviroc Cmax and AUC increased by 2-fold and 4-fold, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when maraviroc is used with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or P-glycoprotein. Dosage adjustment for maraviroc may be necessary if an interaction is suspected.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food may reduce the oral bioavailability of asciminib. When a single 40 mg dose of asciminib was administered with a low-fat meal (400 calories; 25% fat) in healthy volunteers, asciminib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) decreased by 35% and 30%, respectively, compared to asciminib administered in the fasted state. Administration with a high-fat meal (1000 calories; 50% fat) decreased the Cmax and AUC of asciminib by 68% and 62%, respectively.

MANAGEMENT: To ensure adequate asciminib exposures, food consumption should be avoided for at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after taking asciminib.

Administration with food may reduce the bioavailability of maraviroc. According to the product labeling, coadministration of a 300 mg dose of maraviroc with a high-fat breakfast reduced maraviroc peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 33% in healthy volunteers. However, no food restrictions were used in the clinical studies that demonstrated the safety and efficacy of maraviroc. Therefore, maraviroc can be taken with or without food at the recommended dosage.
