Drug Interaction Report

GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with moderate to potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or inhibitors of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) efflux transporter system may increase the plasma concentrations of ensartinib, which is a substrate of both the isoenzyme and efflux transporter in vitro. Concomitant use may increase the risk and/or severity of adverse events. Clinical data characterizing the extent of this interaction and data with less potent inhibitors are not available.

MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of ensartinib with moderate to potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 and/or inhibitors of P-gp should generally be avoided. Consultation with package labeling and relevant institutional protocols may be advisable for further guidance.

GENERALLY AVOID: Concurrent use of ethanol and phenothiazines may result in additive CNS depression and psychomotor impairment. Also, ethanol may precipitate dystonic reactions in patients who are taking phenothiazines. The two drugs probably act on different sites in the brain, although the exact mechanism of the interaction is not known.

MANAGEMENT: Patients should be advised to avoid alcohol during phenothiazine therapy.
