Contraindicated Drug Combination: This drug combination is contraindicated and generally should not be dispensed or administered to the same patient.

Tavapadon/Strong Cyp3a4 Inducers

SEVERITY LEVEL: 1-Contraindicated Drug Combination: This drug combination is contraindicated and generally should not be dispensed or administered to the same patient.

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Strong inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of tavapadon.(1)

CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a strong inducer of CYP3A4 may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of tavapadon.(1)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid concomitant use of strong CYP3A4 inducers during titration and maintenance of tavapadon.(1)

DISCUSSION: In a drug interaction study, concurrent administration of carbamazepine (300 mg twice daily), a strong CYP3A4 inducer, decreased tavapadon area-under-the-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 63% and 49%, respectively.(1) Strong inducers of CYP3A4 include: apalutamide, barbiturates, carbamazepine, encorafenib, enzalutamide, fosphenytoin, ivosidenib, lumacaftor, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifampin, rifapentine, and St. John's wort.(2,3)

Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.

Tavapadon/Moderate Cyp3a4 Inhibitors

SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Tavapadon is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4. Moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors may inhibit the metabolism of tavapadon.(1)

CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the levels and toxicities of tavapadon, including hypotension, altered impulse control, hallucinations, and dyskinesias.(1)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: The risk of hallucinations appears to be increased in patients 65 years of age and older.

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: During tavapadon titration, concomitant use with moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors should be avoided. During tavapadon maintenance, if moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors are initiated, decrease the dosing frequency from once daily to every 3 days: - If the current dose of tavapadon is 5 mg daily, lower dosage to 5 mg every 3 days. - If the current dose of tavapadon is 10 mg daily, lower dosage to 10 mg every 3 days. - If the current dose of tavapadon is 15 mg daily, lower dosage to 15 mg every 3 days. If the CYP3A4 inhibitor is discontinued, resume the prior maintenance dosage of tavapadon and monitor patients for clinical response and tolerability.(1)

DISCUSSION: In a clinical study, fluconazole 200 mg daily was predicted to increase the area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) of tavapadon 15 mg by approximately 2.6-fold and 2.3-fold, respectively. When fluconazole is given with tavapadon once every 3 days, steady-state AUC and Cmax are predicted to fluctuate between +14% to -40% and +1 to -43%, respectively from Day 1 to Day 3 of the dosing interval, compared to tavapadon once daily alone.(1) Moderate inhibitors of CYP3A4 include: amprenavir, aprepitant, atazanavir, avacopan, berotralstat, clofazimine, conivaptan, crizotinib, darunavir, diltiazem, dronedarone, duvelisib, erythromycin, fedratinib, fluconazole, fluvoxamine, fosamprenavir, fosnetupitant, imatinib, isavuconazonium, oral lefamulin, lenacapavir, letermovir, netupitant, nilotinib, nirogacestat, rilzabrutinib, schisandra, stiripentol, tofisopam, treosulfan, verapamil, and voxelotor.(2-3)

Tavapadon/Strong Cyp3a4 Inhibitors

SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Tavapadon is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4. Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may inhibit the metabolism of tavapadon.(1)

CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the levels and toxicities of tavapadon, including hypotension, altered impulse control, hallucinations, and dyskinesias.(1)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: The risk of hallucinations appears to be increased in patients 65 years of age and older.

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: During tavapadon titration, concomitant use with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors should be avoided. During tavapadon maintenance, if strong CYP3A4 inhibitors are initiated, decrease the dosing frequency from once daily to every 7 days: - If the current dose of tavapadon is 5 mg daily, lower dosage to 5 mg every 7 days. - If the current dose of tavapadon is 10 mg daily, lower dosage to 10 mg every 7 days. - If the current dose of tavapadon is 15 mg daily, lower dosage to 15 mg every 7 days. If the CYP3A4 inhibitor is discontinued, resume the prior maintenance dosage of tavapadon and monitor patients for clinical response and tolerability.(1)

DISCUSSION: In a clinical study, itraconazole 200 mg daily for 14 days increased tavapadon area-under-curve (AUC) by 5-fold and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 4-fold. When itraconazole is given with tavapadon once weekly, steady-state AUC and Cmax are predicted to fluctuate between +84% to -23% and +50% to -41%, respectively, across the 7-day dosing interval compared to tavapadon once daily alone.(1) Strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 include: adagrasib, boceprevir, ceritinib, clarithromycin, cobicistat, ensitrelvir, grapefruit, idelalisib, indinavir, itraconazole, josamycin, ketoconazole, levoketoconazole, lonafarnib, lopinavir, mibefradil, mifepristone, nefazodone, nelfinavir, nirmatrelvir, paritaprevir, posaconazole, relacorilant, ribociclib, saquinavir, telaprevir, telithromycin, tipranavir, troleandomycin, tucatinib, and voriconazole.(2-3)

Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.

Tavapadon/Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers

SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of tavapadon.(1)

CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a moderate inducer of CYP3A4 may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of tavapadon.(1)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: For patients initiating tavapadon who are already taking a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, the following tavapadon titration regimen is recommended: - Days 1 to 4: 0.25 mg twice daily - Days 5 to 8: 0.5 mg twice daily - Days 9 to 12: 0.75 mg twice daily - Days 13 to 16: 1 mg twice daily - Days 17 to 20: 1.5 mg twice daily - Days 21 to 24: 2.25 mg twice daily - Days 25 to 40: 3 mg twice daily - Days 41 and after: 5 mg twice daily If needed, based on clinical response and tolerability, the maintenance dosage may be increased to 5 mg three times a day. If further escalation is needed, the dose may be increased by 5 mg every 15 days administered in divided doses (either twice a day or three times a day), to the maximum recommended daily dosage of 45 mg daily (15 mg three times daily). For patients on tavapadon maintenance dosage who are initiating a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, the following dose modifications are recommended: - Days 1 to 7 of concomitant use: continue the current maintenance dosage of tavapadon (5 mg, 10 mg, or 15 mg once daily) - Day 8 and thereafter during concomitant use: increase the frequency of the maintenance dosage of tavapadon to twice daily. If needed, based on clinical response and tolerability, the maintenance dosage can be increased to three times daily. Upon discontinuation of moderate CYP3A4 inducers, gradually reduce the tavapadon dosage to once daily. Monitor patients for clinical response and tolerability.(1)

DISCUSSION: Concurrent administration of efavirenz (600 mg), a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, with 15 mg tavapadon is predicted to decrease the area-under-the-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 70% and 58%.(1) When a moderate CYP3A4 inducer is initiated during maintenance therapy (5, 10, or 15 mg doses) of tavapadon, with increased dosing frequency from once daily to three times daily, steady state AUC and Cmax are not predicted to differ significantly relative to once daily dosing without an inducer.(1) Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, efavirenz, elagolix, etravirine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, rifabutin, sotorasib, telotristat ethyl, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(2,3)
