Professional:The solubility of vismodegib is known to be pH-dependent (0.1 mcg/mL at pH 7 and 0.99 mg/mL at pH 1) and drugs that alter the pH of the upper gastrointestinal tract may affects its solubility and reduce its bioavailability. However, a clinically significant pharmacokinetic effect has not been observed, with results from a clinical study showing a 33% reduction in the unbound drug concentrations of vismodegib after 7 days of concomitant therapy with the proton pump inhibitor rabeprazole (20 mg, given 2 hours before each vismodegib administration).
