Drug Interaction Report

MONITOR: Lazertinib may increase the concentration and adverse effects of drugs which rely on CYP450 3A4 and/or breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) for clearance via inhibition of the isoenzyme and/or the efflux transporter. However, for drugs whose therapeutic effects are dependent on the formation of active metabolites via CYP450 3A4 (e.g., amiodarone, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide), inhibition of this isoenzyme may result in a reduction in efficacy. In one pharmacokinetic study, healthy participants (n=20) received the sensitive CYP450 3A4 substrate midazolam and BCRP substrate rosuvastatin at baseline and again with steady-state lazertinib. Coadministration increased midazolam's peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) by 1.4- and 1.5-fold, respectively. Likewise, rosuvastatin's Cmax and AUC increased by 2.2- and 2-fold, respectively. Data for less sensitive substrates or drugs metabolized and/or transported by multiple routes are unavailable.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised if lazertinib is used concurrently with agents that are substrates of CYP450 3A4 and/or the efflux transporter BCRP. This may be particularly important in cases where minimal changes in the substrate's concentration could result in serious adverse reactions (if the agent is cleared via CYP450 3A4 and/or BCRP) or a significant reduction in efficacy (if the medication has active metabolites formed via CYP450 3A4). Dose adjustments and/or increased monitoring may be required. Consultation with the labeling of the substrate in question is advised.

GENERALLY AVOID: Alcohol may potentiate some of the pharmacologic effects of vilazodone. Use in combination may result in additive central nervous system depression and/or impairment of judgment, thinking, and psychomotor skills.

ADJUST DOSING INTERVAL: Food enhances the oral bioavailability of vilazodone. According to the product labeling, vilazodone blood concentrations in the fasted state can be decreased by approximately 50% compared to the fed state, which may result in diminished effectiveness in some patients. The absolute bioavailability of vilazodone is 72% with food. In study subjects, administration with food (high-fat or light meal) increased vilazodone peak plasma concentration (Cmax) by approximately 147% to 160% and systemic exposure (AUC) by approximately 64% to 85%.

MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving vilazodone should be advised to avoid consumption of alcohol. Ambulatory patients should be counseled to avoid hazardous activities requiring complete mental alertness and motor coordination until they know how vilazodone affects them, and to notify their physician if they experience excessive or prolonged CNS effects that interfere with their normal activities. Vilazodone should be taken with food. Administration without food may result in inadequate drug concentrations and diminished effectiveness.
