Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: The concomitant use of bone marrow depressants and sodium phosphate P-32 may have additive myelosuppressive effects.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be monitored for excessive bone marrow suppression during treatment with sodium phosphate P-32. Sodium phosphate P-32 should not be used as part of a sequential treatment with a chemotherapeutic agent. Dose reductions of the other bone marrow depressants may be necessary. The manufacturer's labeling should be consulted for more specific recommendations for each agent involved. Patients should be advised to contact their physician if they develop signs and symptoms of myelosuppression such as pallor, dizziness, fatigue, lethargy, fainting, easy bruising or bleeding, or signs of infection such as fever, chills, sore throat, body aches, and other influenza-like symptoms.

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.
