Determining the interaction of Brigatinib and Zykadia and the possibility of their joint administration.

Check result:
Brigatinib <> Zykadia
Relevance: 17.11.2023 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:

Consumer information for this interaction is not currently available.GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may significantly 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. MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of brigatinib with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors should generally be avoided. If coadministration is required, the brigatinib once daily dose should be reduced by approximately 50% (i.e., from 180 mg to 90 mg, or from 90 mg to 60 mg). 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. Following discontinuation of the CYP450 3A4 inhibitor, the brigatinib dose that was tolerated previously may be resumed. References "Product Information. Alunbrig (brigatinib)."
