Drug and food interactions

Moderate

asciminib food

Applies to: Scemblix (asciminib)

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.
