Relevance: 15.12.2022 Reviewer: Shkutko P.M., M.D., in

In the database of official manuals used in the service creation an interaction registered by statistical results of studies was found, which can either lead to negative consequences for the patient health or strengthen a mutual positive effect. A doctor should be consulted to address the issue of joint drug administration.

Consumer:

Erythromycin may increase the blood levels of brigatinib in some patients. You may be more likely to experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, high blood pressure, high blood sugar, slow heart rate, visual disturbances, anemia, and infections. Talk to your doctor if you have any questions or concerns. Your doctor may be able to prescribe alternatives that do not interact, or you may need a dose adjustment or more frequent monitoring by your doctor to safely use both medications. You should seek medical attention if you develop paleness, fatigue, dizziness, fainting, fever, chills, diarrhea, sore throat, muscle aches, shortness of breath, blood in phlegm, weight loss, red or inflamed skin, body sores, or pain and burning during urination. It is important to tell your doctor about all other medications you use, including vitamins and herbs. Do not stop using any medications without first talking to your doctor.

Professional:

MONITOR: Coadministration with inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may increase the plasma concentrations of brigatinib, which is partially metabolized by the isoenzyme. When a single 90 mg dose of brigatinib was administered with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor itraconazole (200 mg twice daily), brigatinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 21% and 101%, respectively, compared to brigatinib administered alone. It is not known to what extent brigatinib may interact with weak and moderate CYP450 3A4 inhibitors.

MANAGEMENT: Caution is advised when brigatinib is used with CYP450 3A4 inhibitors. Patients should be closely monitored for increased adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, hypertension, bradycardia, hyperglycemia, visual disturbances, lymphopenia, anemia, and elevations in pancreatic enzymes and creatine phosphokinase.
