Xalkori and Zykadia

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 information for this interaction is not currently available.GENERALLY AVOID: Coadministration with potent inhibitors of CYP450 3A4 may significantly increase the plasma concentrations of crizotinib, which is primarily metabolized by the isoenzyme. In study subjects, administration of a single 150 mg oral dose of crizotinib during treatment with the potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (200 mg twice daily) resulted in an approximately 1.4-fold increase in crizotinib peak plasma concentration (Cmax) and 3.2-fold increase in systemic exposure (AUC) compared to crizotinib administered alone. The effect of CYP450 3A4 inhibitors on steady-state crizotinib exposure has not been evaluated. Because crizotinib is associated with concentration-dependent prolongation of the QT interval, increased levels may potentiate the risk of ventricular arrhythmias such as torsade de pointes and sudden death. MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of crizotinib with potent CYP450 3A4 inhibitors should generally be avoided. References "Product Information. Xalkori (crizotinib)."
