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

Check result:
Cerdelga <> Zykadia
Relevance: 27.01.2023 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.CONTRAINDICATED: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of eliglustat, which is primarily metabolized by CYP450 2D6 and, to a lesser extent, CYP450 3A4. Eliglustat at substantially elevated plasma concentrations is predicted to cause prolongation of the PR, QTc and QRS cardiac intervals, which may increase the risk of bradycardia, atrioventricular block, cardiac arrest, and serious ventricular arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes. In 31 subjects who were CYP450 2D6 extensive metabolizers (EMs), eliglustat peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and systemic exposure (AUC) increased by 4.0- and 4.4-fold, respectively, following coadministration of eliglustat (84 mg twice daily) with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (400 mg once daily). Simulations using physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) models suggest that ketoconazole may increase eliglustat Cmax by 4.4-fold and AUC by 5.4-fold in CYP450 2D6 intermediate metabolizers (IMs). PBPK modeling also suggest that ketoconazole may increase eliglustat Cmax by 4.3-fold and AUC by 6.2-fold in CYP450 2D6 poor metabolizers (PMs) given eliglustat 84 mg once daily (half the dosage used in EMs). The magnitude of interaction is expected to increase further with the addition of a CYP450 2D6 inhibitor like paroxetine. Simulations using PBPK models suggest that the combination of ketoconazole (400 mg once daily) and paroxetine (30 mg once daily) may increase eliglustat Cmax by 16.7-fold and AUC by 24.2-fold in EMs given eliglustat 84 mg twice daily. For IMs, the estimated increases in eliglustat Cmax and AUC are 7.5- and 9.8-fold, respectively. MANAGEMENT: The use of eliglustat with a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor is considered contraindicated in CYP450 2D6 poor metabolizers (PMs) and intermediate metabolizers (IMs). The contraindication is extended to extensive metabolizers (EMs) when a moderate or potent CYP450 2D6 inhibitor is also given. In the absence of a concomitant CYP450 2D6 inhibitor, eliglustat may be prescribed at a reduced dosage of 84 mg once daily to EMs treated with a potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor. Potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors include itraconazole, ketoconazole, posaconazole, voriconazole, conivaptan, ceritinib, idelalisib, mibefradil, nefazodone, cobicistat, delavirdine, protease inhibitors, and ketolide and certain macrolide antibiotics. Potent and moderate CYP450 2D6 inhibitors include abiraterone, bupropion, celecoxib, cimetidine, cinacalcet, clobazam, darifenacin, diphenhydramine, dronedarone, duloxetine, flecainide, fluoxetine, methotrimeprazine, mirabegron, paroxetine, propafenone, propoxyphene, quinidine, ranolazine, sertraline, and terbinafine. Some drugs such as cobicistat, delavirdine, mibefradil, and ritonavir are dual CYP450 3A4 and 2D6 inhibitors, and they should not be used with eliglustat in any patient regardless of their CYP450 2D6 metabolizer status.
