Overview
Mavacamten is a cardiac myosin inhibitor.
Mavacamten is an allosteric, selective, and reversible cardiac myosin inhibitor. The drug targets the underlying sarcomere hypercontractility of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) by decreasing actin-myosin cross-bridge formation and reducing myocardial contractility. Mavacamten shifts the overall myosin population towards an energy-sparing, recruitable, super-relaxed state.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most prevalent heritable cardiovascular disorder caused by mutations in a variety of sarcomere proteins. In a healthy heart, 40-50% of myosin heads are not active or in an ''off state'', which preserves energy and ensures sustainability; in contrast, in HCM, the majority of myosin heads are available in the ''on state'' to interact with actin. Excess myosin-actin cross-bridge formation caused by the dysfunctional sarcomere during systole and diastole results in hypertrophy, hypercontractility, and impaired relaxation.
These abnormalities lead to changes outside the ventricular wall including the mitral valve, microvasculature, and interstitial tissue. Obstructive HCM is the result of these changes causing either narrowing within the left ventricular chamber or septal hypertrophy and/or changes in the mitral valve that causes disruption of blood flow and a pressure gradient through the left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT). In patients with HCM, myosin inhibition with mavacamten reduces dynamic LVOT obstruction and improves cardiac filling pressures.
Treatment with mavacamten has demonstrated reductions in left ventricular mass index and NT-proBNP, a biomarker of cardiac wall stress.
Mavacamten exhibits dose-proportional exposure over a dose range of 1 to 15 mg. Estimated oral bioavailability is at least 85% with peak plasma concentrations achieved in 1 hour. No clinically significant differences in mavacamten pharmacokinetics were observed following administration with a high fat meal.
At steady state, there is a 1.5 peak-to-trough plasma concentration ratio with once daily dosing. Mavacamten is 97-98% protein bound. Metabolism occurs extensively through cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzyme 2C19 (74%), 3A4 (18%), and CYP2C9 (8%).
The accumulation and half-life of mavacamten are dependent on CYP2C19 metabolic status. Drug accumulation is larger in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers. In CYP2C19 normal metabolizers, the half-life is 6-9 days; in poor metabolizers, the half-life is prolonged to 23 days.
Following administration of a single radiolabeled dose of mavacamten, 85% of the dose was recovered in urine (3% as unchanged drug) and 7% was recovered in feces (1% as unchanged drug).
USES: This medication is used to treat a certain heart problem (hypertrophic cardiomyopathy). It works by relaxing the muscles in your heart. Mavacamten may help to increase your ability to exercise and improve symptoms such as shortness of breath and tiredness.

Drug interactions
Mavacamten is primarily metabolized by cytochrome P-450 (CYP) isoenzyme 2C19, and to a lesser extent by CYP3A4 and CYP2C9.
In vitro, mavacamten is an inducer of CYP2B6. Mavacamten also is an inducer of CYP3A4, CYP2C9, and CYP2C19.
Mavacamten does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2B6, or CYP2C8. At clinically relevant concentrations, mavacamten is not an inhibitor of CYP2D6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, or CYP3A4. Mavacamten does not inhibit p-glycoprotein (P-gp), breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), bile salt export pump (BSEP), multidrug and toxin exclusion (MATE1), MATE2-K, organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs), organic cation transporters (OCTs), or organic anion transporters (OATs).

Mavacamten/Camizestrant
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: Camizestrant is a CYP3A4 substrate and strong CYP2C19 inhibitor. Mavacamten is a moderate CYP3A4 inducer and may accelerate the metabolism of camizestrant. Mavacamten is also a CYP2C19 substrate, and its metabolism may be decreased by camizestrant.(1,2)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of strong CYP2C19 inhibitors increases plasma exposure of mavacamten, which may increase the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of mavacamten.(2) Concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers are predicted to decrease plasma exposure and effectiveness of camizestrant.(1) The net effect of this two-way interaction is unknown.
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US and Canadian manufacturers of mavacamten state that concomitant use with a strong CYP2C19 inhibitor is contraindicated.(2,3) While the UK manufacturer provides different recommendations depending on a patient's CYP2C19 phenotype,(4) it is unknown how those recommendations apply given the bi-directional effects of this drug pair.
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten 15 mg with omeprazole 20 mg (a weak CYP2C19 inhibitor) once daily increased mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) by 48% with no effect on maximum concentration (Cmax) in healthy CYP2C19 normal metabolizers and rapid metabolizers.(2) Camizestrant AUC is predicted to decrease to 43% and Cmax to 58% following concomitant administration of phenobarbital (moderate CYP3A4 inducer) 100 mg once daily for 17 days. Phenobarbital and efavirenz (moderate CYP3A inducers) are predicted to have minimal effects on camizestrant AUC and Cmax when camizestrant is given in combination with 400 mg or 600 mg ribociclib.(1) Camizestrant is predicted to increase the AUC and Cmax of omeprazole (sensitive CYP2C19 substrate) by 8.5-fold and 3.3-fold, respectively, and of lansoprazole (moderately sensitive CYP2C19 substrate) by 5.7-fold and 1.5-fold, respectively.(1)

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Strong or moderate inhibitors of CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 may decrease the metabolism of mavacamten.(1-3)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of strong or moderate CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 inhibitors increases plasma exposure of mavacamten, which may increase the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of mavacamten.(1-3)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US and Canadian manufacturer of mavacamten state concomitant use of strong or moderate inhibitors of CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 is contraindicated.(1,2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states combined use of a strong CYP2C19 inhibitor and a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., fluconazole, voriconazole) is contraindicated. The UK manufacturer does not provide recommendations for combined use of a dual moderate CYP2C9 inhibitor and CYP3A4 inhibitor (e.g., fedratinib).(3)
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten (15 mg) with omeprazole (20 mg), a weak CYP2C19 inhibitor, once daily increased mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) by 48% with no effect on maximum concentration (Cmax) in healthy CYP2C19 normal metabolizers and rapid metabolizers.(1) Concomitant use of mavacamten (15 mg) with ketoconazole 400 mg, a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor, once daily is predicted to increase mavacamten AUC and Cmax up to 130% and 90%, respectively.(1) Drugs that inhibit both CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 linked to this monograph include: fedratinib, fluconazole, fluvoxamine, and voriconazole.(4,5)
Mavacamten/Dual Strong Or Moderate Cyp2c19 & 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 and moderate inducers of CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 may increase the metabolism of mavacamten.(1-3)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of strong or moderate CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 inducers with mavacamten may decrease the levels of and effectiveness of mavacamten.(1-3)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US and Canadian manufacturers of mavacamten state concurrent use of strong or moderate inducers of CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 is contraindicated.(1,2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states concomitant use with strong or moderate CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 inducers is dependent on CYP2C19 phenotype. Labeling recommends: -When initiating or increasing the dose of a strong CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. The maximum recommended dose of mavacamten is 5 mg daily. -When initiating or increasing the dose of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. -When initiating or increasing the dose a strong or moderate CYP2C19 or strong CYP3A4 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers, monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. -When discontinuing or decreasing the dose of a strong CYP2C19 or a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, decrease the dose of mavacamten from 5 mg to 2.5 mg, or pause therapy if dose is 2.5 mg. -When discontinuing or decreasing the dose of a strong CYP2C19 or CYP3A4 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers, decrease the dose of mavacamten by one dose level when on doses of 5 mg or higher. Maintain mavacamten dose when on 2.5 mg. -When discontinuing or decreasing the dose of a moderate CYP2C19 inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers, no dose adjustment is warranted. Monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. -No dose adjustment is warranted with moderate CYP2C19 inducers in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers. -No dose adjustment is warranted with moderate CYP3A4 inducers in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers.(3)
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten (a single 15 mg dose) with a strong CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 inducer (rifampin 600 mg daily dose) is predicted to decrease mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 87% and 22%, respectively, in CYP2C19 normal metabolizers, and by 69% and 4%, respectively, in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers. Drugs that induce both CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 linked to this monograph include: apalutamide, asunaprevir, dipyrone, efavirenz, enzalutamide, fosphenytoin, pacritinib, phenytoin, and rifampin.(4,5)
Mavacamten/Fexinidazole
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: Fexinidazole is a CYP3A4 substrate, moderate CYP2C19 inhibitor, and moderate CYP3A4 inducer. Mavacamten is a moderate CYP3A4 inducer and may accelerate the metabolism of fexinidazole to its active metabolites. Mavacamten is also a CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 substrate, and its metabolism may be altered by fexinidazole.(1,2)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concomitant use of fexinidazole with mavacamten may result in increased levels of fexinidazole's active metabolites (M1 and M2), which may lead to an increased risk of adverse reactions including life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias like torsades de pointes. The net effect of fexinidazole on mavacamten exposure is unknown. Mavacamten levels may increase or decrease.(1,2)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: The risk of QT prolongation or torsades de pointes may be increased in patients with cardiovascular disease (e.g. heart failure, myocardial infarction, history of torsades de pointes, congenital long QT syndrome), hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, hypocalcemia, bradycardia, female gender, or advanced age.(3) Concurrent use of more than one drug known to cause QT prolongation or higher systemic concentrations of either QT prolonging drug are additional risk factors for torsades de pointes. Factors which may increase systemic drug concentrations include rapid infusion of an intravenous dose or impaired metabolism or elimination of the drug (e.g. coadministration with an agent which inhibits its metabolism or elimination, and/or renal/hepatic dysfunction).(3) Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The net effect of this two-way interaction is unknown and optimal doses of the drugs when used concurrently have not been determined. The US and Canadian manufacturers of mavacamten state that the concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers is contraindicated.(2,4) The Canadian manufacturer of mavacamten states that concurrent use of moderate CYP2C19 inhibitors is contraindicated.(4) While the US manufacturer provides dose adjustment recommendations for concurrent use with CYP2C19 inhibitors, and the UK manufacturer provides different recommendations depending on a patient's CYP2C19 phenotype,(5) it is unknown how those recommendations apply given the bi-directional and opposing effects of this drug pair. Avoid use of fexinidazole in patients who have a baseline QTcF interval greater than 470 msec, a history of torsades de pointes, congenital long QT syndrome, cardiac arrhythmias, uncompensated heart failure, or family history of sudden death, or uncorrected hypokalemia.(1) If concurrent therapy is warranted, consider obtaining serum calcium, magnesium, and potassium levels and monitoring ECG at baseline and at regular intervals. Correct any electrolyte abnormalities. Instruct patients to report any irregular heartbeat, dizziness, or fainting.
DISCUSSION: Fexinidazole is metabolized to its active metabolites, M1 and M2, by CYP3A4. M2 plasma concentrations have been associated with the increased risk of QT prolongation.(1) In clinical studies, fexinidazole was associated with a concentration-dependent QTcF prolongation. At recommended therapeutic doses, the mean (upper 90% confidence interval) increase in QTcF is predicted to be 19.0 msec (23.3 msec). The observed increase in QTcF appears to be associated with the M2 (sulfone) metabolite of fexinidazole.(1) A clinical drug-drug interaction study found that fexinidazole (1,800 mg for 4 days then 1,200 mg on day 5) decreased the area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) of single-dose midazolam (2 mg) by 57% and 39%, respectively.(1) A clinical drug-drug interaction study found that fexinidazole (1,800 mg for 4 days then 1,200 mg on day 5) increased the AUC and Cmax of single-dose omeprazole (20 mg) by about 2-fold compared to omeprazole administered alone.(1)
Mavacamten/Hormonal Contraceptives
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: Mavacamten is a moderate CYP3A4 inducer. Coadministration of mavacamten with hormonal contraceptives may lead to contraceptive failure or an increase in breakthrough bleeding due to decreased hormonal concentrations.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of mavacamten can lead to ineffective hormonal contraceptive and cause unintended pregnancy. Mavacamten may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid concomitant use of hormonal contraceptives with mavacamten. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective non-hormonal contraception during treatment with mavacamten and for 4 months after the last dose.(1) Hormonal contraceptives containing a combination of ethinyl estradiol and norethindrone may be used with mavacamten.(1) Women of reproductive age should be counseled not to rely on hormonal contraceptives (including oral contraceptives, patches, implants, and/or IUDs) for contraception. Pregnant women and females of reproductive potential should be counseled on the potential risk to the fetus.(1) For emergency contraception, the UK's Medicines & Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) recommends that women who have used a CYP3A4 inducer in the previous 4 weeks should consider a non-hormonal emergency contraceptive (i.e., a copper IUD). If a non-hormonal emergency contraceptive is not an option, double the usual dose of levonorgestrel from 1.5 to 3 mg. Advise the patient to have a pregnancy test to exclude pregnancy after use and to seek medical advice if she does become pregnant.(3)
DISCUSSION: Mavacamten is a moderate CYP3A4 inducer.(1) Concurrent use of a 16-day course of mavacamten (25 mg on days 1 and 2, followed by 15 mg for 14 days) resulted in a decrease in midazolam area-under-curve (AUC) and concentration maximum (Cmax) by 13% and 7%, respectively, in healthy CYP2C19 normal metabolizers. Concurrent use of mavacamten once daily in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, midazolam AUC and Cmax are predicted to decrease by 21 to 64% and 13 to 48%, respectively, depending on the dose of mavacamten and CYP2C19 phenotype.(1) Mavacamten has not been studied with hormonal contraceptives. It can render some hormonal contraceptives ineffective and may cause unintended pregnancy. Women should use non-hormonal contraception during therapy.(1) In an animal reproduction study, mavacamten administration resulted in decreases in mean fetal body weight, reductions in fetal ossification of bones, and increases in post-implantation loss as well as increases in skeletal malformations at doses similar to maximum recommended human doses.(1)

Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 are expected to increase the metabolism of lorlatinib.(4) Mavacamten is a moderate CYP3A4 inducer.
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of both mavacamten and lorlatinib.(1-4)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US and Canadian manufacturers of mavacamten state concurrent use of mavacamten with moderate CYP3A4 inducers is contraindicated.(1,2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states that management of mavacamten during concomitant use with moderate CYP3A4 inducers is dependent on CYP2C19 phenotype. Labeling recommends: -When initiating or increasing the dose of a moderate inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. -When discontinuing or decreasing the dose of a moderate inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, decrease the dose of mavacamten to 2.5 mg, or pause therapy if dose is 2.5 mg. -No dose adjustment is warranted with moderate inducers in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers.(3) The manufacturer of lorlatinib recommends avoiding concurrent administration of moderate inducers of CYP3A4 with lorlatinib.(4) If concurrent use of lorlatinib and moderate CYP3A4 inducers cannot be avoided, increase the dose of lorlatinib to 125 mg daily.(4)
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten (a single 15 mg dose) with a strong CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 inducer (rifampin 600 mg daily dose) is predicted to decrease mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 87% and 22%, respectively, in CYP2C19 normal metabolizers, and by 69% and 4%, respectively, in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers.(1) Modafinil (a moderate CYP3A4 inducer) decreased the AUC and Cmax of a single 100 mg dose of lorlatinib by 23% and 22%, respectively.(4)

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US and Canadian manufacturers of mavacamten state concurrent use of mavacamten with moderate CYP3A4 inducers is contraindicated.(1,2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states that management of mavacamten during concomitant use with moderate CYP3A4 inducers is dependent on CYP2C19 phenotype. Labeling recommends: -When initiating or increasing the dose of a moderate inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, monitor patients closely and adjust mavacamten dose based on clinical response. -When discontinuing or decreasing the dose of a moderate inducer in patients who are CYP2C19 poor metabolizers, decrease the dose of mavacamten to 2.5 mg, or pause therapy if dose is 2.5 mg. -No dose adjustment is warranted with moderate inducers in patients who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers.(3) The manufacturer of mitapivat states that concurrent use of mitapivat with medications that are moderate CYP3A4 inducers should be monitored closely. Mitapivat dose should not exceed a maximum dose of 100 mg twice daily with concurrent moderate CYP3A4 inducers.(4)
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten (a single 15 mg dose) with a strong CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 inducer (rifampin 600 mg daily dose) is predicted to decrease mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 87% and 22%, respectively, in CYP2C19 normal metabolizers, and by 69% and 4%, respectively, in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers.(1) Mitapivat is a CYP3A4 substrate. In a pharmacokinetic study with 5 or 20 mg twice daily of mitapivat, efavirenz decreased AUC and Cmax by 60% and 30%, respectively. After mitapivat doses of 50 mg twice daily, efavirenz decreased AUC and Cmax by 55% and 24%, respectively.(4)

Factors which may increase systemic drug concentrations include rapid infusion of an intravenous dose or impaired metabolism or elimination of the drug (e.g. coadministration with an agent which inhibits its metabolism or elimination, genetic impairment in drug metabolism or elimination, and/or renal/hepatic dysfunction).(2) Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of revumenib states that concomitant use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided.(1)
DISCUSSION: Revumenib is primarily metabolized by CYP3A4. Concomitant use of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer may decrease revumenib concentrations and increase M1 systemic exposure, resulting in decreased revumenib efficacy or increased risk of QT prolongation.(1) In clinical trials, QTc interval prolongation was reported as an adverse event in 29% of 135 patients treated with the recommended dosage of revumenib; 12% of patients had Grade 3 QTc prolongation. Revumenib increased the QTc interval in a concentration-dependent manner. At the mean steady-state Cmax using the highest approved recommended dosage of revumenib without CYP3A4 inhibitors, QTc increase was predicted to be 27 msec (upper bound of 90% confidence interval = 30 msec). At the steady-state Cmax using the highest approved recommended dosage of revumenib with CYP3A4 inhibitors, QTc increase was predicted to be 19 msec (upper bound of 90% confidence interval = 22 msec).(1) Moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, elagolix, etravirine, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, rifabutin, sotorasib, telotristat ethyl, and tovorafenib.(3)

SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of erlotinib.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a CYP3A4 inducer may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of erlotinib.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid the concurrent use of CYP3A4 inducers in patients receiving therapy with erlotinib. Consider the use of alternative agents with less enzyme induction potential.(1) Consider increasing the dosage of erlotinib by 50 mg increments as tolerated at two week intervals (to a maximum of 450 mg) while closely monitoring the patient. The highest dosage studied with concurrent rifampin is 450 mg. If the dosage of erlotinib is increased, it will need to be decreased when the inducer is discontinued.(1)
DISCUSSION: Pretreatment and concurrent therapy with rifampin increased erlotinib clearance by 3-fold and decreased the erlotinib area-under-curve (AUC) by 66% to 80%. This is equivalent to a dose of about 30 mg to 50 mg in NSCLC.(1) In a study, pretreatment with rifampin for 11 days decreased the AUC of a single 450 mg dose of erlotinib to 57.6% of the AUC observed with a single 150 mg dose of erlotinib.(1) In a case report, coadministration of phenytoin (180mg daily) and erlotinib (150mg daily) increased the phenytoin concentration from 8.2mcg/ml to 24.2mcg/ml and decreased the erlotinib concentration 12-fold (from 1.77mcg/ml to 0.15mcg/ml) and increased the erlotinib clearance by 10-fold (from 3.53 L/h to 41.7 L/h).(2) In a study, concurrent use of sorafenib (400 mg twice daily) and erlotinib (150 mg daily) decreased the concentration minimum (Cmin), concentration maximum (Cmax), and AUC of erlotinib.(3) In an animal study, concurrent use of dexamethasone and erlotinib decreased the AUC of erlotinib by 0.6-fold.(4) Strong inducers of CYP3A4 include: barbiturates, encorafenib, enzalutamide, fosphenytoin, ivosidenib, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifampin, and rifapentine.(5,6) Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, efavirenz, elagolix, etravirine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(5,6) Weak inducers of CYP3A4 include: amprenavir, armodafinil, aumolertinib, bexarotene, brigatinib, brivaracetam, clobazam, danshen, darolutamide, dicloxacillin, echinacea, eslicarbazepine, flucloxacillin, garlic, genistein, ginkgo, ginseng, glycyrrhizin, mobocertinib, nevirapine, omaveloxolone, oritavancin, oxcarbazepine, pioglitazone, pitolisant, quercetin, relugolix, rufinamide, sarilumab, sulfinpyrazone, sunvozertinib, tazemetostat, tecovirimat, terbinafine, ticlopidine, topiramate, troglitazone, vemurafenib, vinblastine, and zanubrutinib.(5,6)
Dual Inducers Of Cyp2c9 And Cyp3a4/Avatrombopag
SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Agents that are both moderate or strong inducers of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 may increase the metabolism of avatrombopag.(1-2)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a dual inducer of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 may result in decreased levels of and clinical effects of avatrombopag.(1-2)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of avatrombopag recommends dose adjustment of avatrombopag when used with drugs that are dual inducers of CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 in patients with persistent or chronic immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). When starting avatrombopag in a patient 6 years and older with persistent or chronic ITP already taking a dual CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 inducer, increase the dose of avatrombopag to 40 mg once daily. In pediatric patients 1 year to less than 6 years old who are on a dual CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 inducer, increase the starting dose of avatrombopag to 20 mg daily.(1) When starting a dual CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 inducer in a chronic ITP patient already taking avatrombopag, monitor platelet counts and adjust the dose of avatrombopag as needed, according to the prescribing information for avatrombopag.(1) No dose adjustments are required for patients with chronic liver disease.(1)
DISCUSSION: A study of 16 healthy subjects found that coadministration of rifampin (a moderate CYP2C9 and strong CYP3A4 inducer) and avatrombopag led to a 43 % decrease in the area-under-curve (AUC) of avatrombopag compared to avatrombopag administered alone and an approximately 5-fold reduction in the area-under-effect-curve (AUEC). There was no difference in the maximum concentration (Cmax) of avatrombopag or the maximum platelet count (Emax) with or without rifampin.(1-2) Drugs that are both moderate CYP2C9 inducers and strong CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: carbamazepine, enzalutamide, mavacamten, and rifampin.(1,3-4)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: There are no recommendations for concurrent use of crizotinib with mavacamten. Concurrent therapy should be avoided. If use of this combination is necessary, the patient should be closely monitored for crizotinib efficacy and mavacamten toxicity. The manufacturer of crizotinib makes the recommendations below for concurrent use with CYP3A4 inducers: Avoid the concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers in patients receiving therapy with crizotinib.(1) Consider the use of alternative agents with less enzyme induction potential.(1) The manufacturer of mavacamten makes the recommendations below for concurrent use with CYP3A4 inhibitors: Initiate mavacamten at the recommended starting dosage in patients who are on stable therapy with a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Reduce dose by one level (i.e., 15 to 10 mg, 10 to 5 mg, or 5 to 2.5 mg) in patients who are on mavacamten treatment and intend to initiate a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Schedule clinical and echocardiographic assessment 4 weeks after inhibitor initiation, and do not up-titrate mavacamten until 12 weeks after inhibitor initiation.(2) Avoid initiation of concomitant moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors in patients who are on stable treatment with the lowest recommended dose of mavacamten because a lower dose is not available.(2) For short-term use (e.g. 1 week), interrupt mavacamten therapy for the duration of the moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. After therapy with the moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor is discontinued, mavacamten may be reinitiated at the previous dose immediately upon discontinuation.(2)
DISCUSSION: Rifampin (600 mg daily), a strong CYP3A4 inducer, decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area-under-curve (AUC) of a single dose of crizotinib (250 mg) by 69% and 82%, respectively.(1) Concomitant use of mavacamten (25 mg) with verapamil sustained release (240 mg), a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor, increased mavacamten AUC by 15% and Cmax by 52% in intermediate metabolizers and normal metabolizers of CYP2C19.(2) Concomitant use of mavacamten with diltiazem, a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor, in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers is predicted to increase mavacamten AUC and Cmax up to 55% and 42%, respectively.(2)
Mavacamten/Diltiazem; Verapamil
SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors such as diltiazem and verapamil may decrease the metabolism of mavacamten.(1-3) The combination of mavacamten, diltiazem or verapamil, and a beta blocker may result in an increased risk of additive negative inotropic effects.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of diltiazem or verapamil may increase the plasma levels and the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of mavacamten.(1) Concurrent use of mavacamten and diltiazem or verapamil with a beta blocker may increase the incidence and severity of heart failure.(1)

PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of mavacamten makes the recommendations below for concurrent use with CYP3A4 inhibitors such as diltiazem and verapamil: Initiate mavacamten at the recommended starting dosage in patients who are on stable therapy with a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Reduce dose by one level (i.e., 15 to 10 mg, 10 to 5 mg, or 5 to 2.5 mg) in patients who are on mavacamten treatment and intend to initiate a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Schedule clinical and echocardiographic assessment 4 weeks after inhibitor initiation, and do not up-titrate mavacamten until 12 weeks after inhibitor initiation.(1) Avoid initiation of concomitant moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors in patients who are on stable treatment with the lowest recommended dose of mavacamten because a lower dose is not available.(1) Avoid concomitant use of mavacamten in patients on verapamil with a beta blocker, or diltiazem with a beta blocker as these medications and combinations increase the risk of left ventricular systolic dysfunction and heart failure symptoms and clinical experience is limited.(1) The Canadian manufacturer of mavacamten recommends additional monitoring when concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors is warranted. Adjust the dose of mavacamten based on clinical assessment.(2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states no dose adjustment is necessary when starting mavacamten in patients on moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors. If starting a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor in a patient who is a poor CYP2C19 metabolizer, reduce mavacamten 5 mg to 2.5 mg. If CYP2C19 phenotype is unknown, consider a starting dose of mavacamten of 2.5 mg daily.(3)
DISCUSSION: Concomitant use of mavacamten (25 mg) with verapamil sustained release (240 mg) increased mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) by 16% and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 52% in intermediate metabolizers and normal metabolizers of CYP2C19.(1) Concomitant use of mavacamten with diltiazem in CYP2C19 poor metabolizers is predicted to increase mavacamten AUC and Cmax up to 55% and 42%, respectively.(1)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of mavacamten recommends to initiate mavacamten at the recommended starting dosage in patients who are on stable therapy with a weak CYP2C19 inhibitor or a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Reduce dose by one level (i.e., 15 to 10 mg, 10 to 5 mg, or 5 to 2.5 mg) in patients who are on mavacamten treatment and intend to initiate a weak CYP2C19 inhibitor or a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Schedule clinical and echocardiographic assessment 4 weeks after inhibitor initiation, and do not up-titrate mavacamten until 12 weeks after inhibitor initiation.(1) Avoid initiation of concomitant weak CYP2C19 and moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors in patients who are on stable treatment with the lowest recommended dose of mavacamten because a lower dose is not available.(1) For short-term use (e.g. 1 week), interrupt mavacamten therapy for the duration of the weak CYP2C19 and moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. After therapy with the inhibitor is discontinued, mavacamten may be reinitiated at the previous dose immediately upon discontinuation.(1) The Canadian manufacturer of mavacamten recommends additional monitoring when concurrent use of weak CYP2C19 or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors is warranted. Adjust the dose of mavacamten based on clinical assessment.(2) The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states no dose adjustment is necessary with weak CYP2C19 or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors.(3) If CYP2C19 phenotype is unknown, consider a starting dose of mavacamten of 2.5 mg daily with moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors.(3)

Reduce dose by one level (i.e., 15 to 10 mg, 10 to 5 mg, or 5 to 2.5 mg) in patients who are on mavacamten treatment and intend to initiate a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. Schedule clinical and echocardiographic assessment 4 weeks after inhibitor initiation, and do not up-titrate mavacamten until 12 weeks after inhibitor initiation.(2) Avoid initiation of concomitant moderate CYP3A4 inhibitors in patients who are on stable treatment with the lowest recommended dose of mavacamten because a lower dose is not available.(2) For short-term use (e.g. 1 week), interrupt mavacamten therapy for the duration of the moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. After therapy with the moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor is discontinued, mavacamten may be reinitiated at the previous dose immediately upon discontinuation.(2)

Monitor left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in 4 weeks then resume usual monitoring schedule. -In patient who are CYP2C19 intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultrarapid metabolizers: Moderate CYP2C19 inhibitors may be used concurrently without dose adjustment of mavacamten starting dose of 5 mg daily. If starting a moderate CYP2C19 inhibitor, reduce mavacamten dose by one dose level or discontinue 2.5 mg. Monitor LVEF in 4 weeks then resume usual monitoring schedule. -If CYP2C19 phenotype is unknown, consider a mavacamten starting dose of 2.5 mg daily. If starting a moderate CYP2C19 inhibitor, reduce mavacamten dose from 5 mg to 2.5 mg or discontinue mavacamten if on 2.5 mg. Monitor LVEF in 4 weeks then resume usual monitoring schedule.(3)

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Brigatinib is a substrate of CYP3A4. Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of brigatinib.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a moderate inducer of CYP3A4 may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of brigatinib.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The manufacturer of brigatinib states to avoid concurrent administration with moderate CYP3A4 inducers.

The daily dose of cabozantinib should not exceed 46 mg. If the CYP3A4 inducer is discontinued, reduce the dosage of cabozantinib to the dose used prior to initiation of the inducer 2 to 3 days after discontinuation of the moderate inducer.(1)
DISCUSSION: The impact of moderate CYP3A4 inducers on the pharmacokinetics of cabozantinib has not been investigated in clinical studies. In a study in healthy subjects, rifampin (strong CYP3A4 inducer, 600 mg daily for 31 days) decreased the AUC of a single dose of cabozantinib by 77%.(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)

CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a moderate inducer of CYP3A4 may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of cabozantinib.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid the concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers in patients receiving therapy with cabozantinib. Consider the use of alternative agents with less enzyme induction potential.(1) If concurrent use of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer cannot be avoided, increase the daily dose of cabozantinib TABlets by 20 mg (e.g. from 60 mg to 80 mg daily) as tolerated. The daily dose should not exceed 80 mg. Resume the dose that was used prior to initiating the CYP3A4 inducer 2 to 3 days after discontinuation of the moderate inducer.(1)
DISCUSSION: The impact of moderate CYP3A4 inducers on the pharmacokinetics of cabozantinib has not been investigated in clinical studies. In a study in healthy subjects, rifampin (strong CYP3A4 inducer, 600 mg daily for 31 days) decreased the AUC of a single dose of cabozantinib by 77%.(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)

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate CYP3A4 inducers are expected to increase the metabolism of doravirine.(1-3)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of doravirine.(1-3)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Recommendations for concurrent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers with doravirine vary depending on the reference. The manufacturer of the fixed dose combination of doravirine-islatravir states concurrent use with moderate CYP3A4 inducers is not recommended.(3) The DHHS HIV guidelines state when coadministering doravirine with bosentan, dexamethasone, and eslicarbazepine (moderate CYP3A4 inducers): consider an alternative antiretroviral or alternative drug to the moderate CYP3A4 inducer. It would be prudent to consider alternative drugs to other moderate CYP3A4 inducers. If co-administration is necessary monitor virologic response.(4) The University of Liverpool HIV Drug Interactions Database states concurrent use with moderate CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided. If concurrent use cannot be avoided, dose adjustment of doravirine to 100 mg twice daily is recommended and should be maintained for at least 2 weeks following cessation of the moderate CYP3A4 inducer. If a patient is on eslicarbazepine, doravirine should not be coadministered.(5) The manufacturer of single ingredient doravirine and the fixed dose combination of doravirine-lamivudine-tenofovir does not have a recommendation for concurrent use with moderate CYP3A4 inducers.(1,3)
DISCUSSION: Doravirine is metabolized by CYP3A4. Moderate CYP3A4 inducers are expected to reduce doravirine levels, which may lead to loss of response.(1) In a study in 12 subjects, rifabutin (300 mg daily), a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, decreased the area-under-curve (AUC) and 24 hour concentration (C24) of a single dose of doravirine (100 mg) by 50% and 68%, respectively.(1) Moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dexamethasone, dipyrone, elagolix, eslicarbazepine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine and tovorafenib.(3-4)

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Concurrent use of elbasvir-grazoprevir and a moderate CYP3A4 inducers is not recommended.(1,2) If concurrent use is required, monitor the patient for potential treatment failure and decreased elbasvir and grazoprevir levels.
DISCUSSION: In single dose studies, rifampin increased levels of both elbasvir and grazoprevir. In a study in 14 subjects, rifampin (600 mg single IV dose) increased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), and minimum concentration (Cmin) of a single dose of elbasvir (50 mg) by 41%, 22%, and 31%, respectively. In a study in 14 subjects, rifampin (600 mg single oral dose) increased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of a single dose of elbasvir (50 mg) by 29%, 17%, and 21%, respectively. In a study in 12 subjects, rifampin (600 mg single IV dose) increased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of a single dose of grazoprevir (200 mg) by 10.94-fold, 10.21-fold, and 1.77-fold, respectively. In a study in 12 subjects, rifampin (600 mg single oral dose) increased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of a single dose of grazoprevir (200 mg) by 6.52-fold, 8.35-fold, and 1.61-fold, respectively.(1) However, multiple dose studies with rifampin showed decreased grazoprevir levels. In a study in 12 subjects, rifampin (600 mg orally) decreased the AUC and Cmin of grazoprevir (200 mg daily) by 7% and 90%, respectively. Cmax increased 16%.(1) In a study in 12 subjects, efavirenz (600 mg daily) decreased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of elbasvir (50 mg daily) by 45%, 34%, and 59%, respectively.(1) In a study in 12 subjects, efavirenz (600 mg daily) decreased the Cmax, AUC, and Cmin of grazoprevir (200 mg daily) by 87%, 82%, and 69%, respectively.(1) Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 include belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, elagolix, etravirine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, rifabutin, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(1-4)

MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of pralsetinib.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer may result in a loss of pralsetinib efficacy.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid the concurrent use of pralsetinib with moderate CYP3A4 inducers.(1) If coadministration with a moderate CYP3A4 inducer cannot be avoided, increase the dose of pralsetinib on day 7 of coadministration with pralsetinib as follows: -If the current dose is 400 mg once daily, increase the dose to 600 mg daily. -If the current dose is 300 mg once daily, increase the dose to 500 mg daily. -If the current dose is 200 mg once daily, increase the dose to 300 mg daily. After discontinuation of a moderate CYP3A4 inducer for at least 14 days, resume the previous pralsetinib dose prior to initiating the moderate CYP3A4 inducer.(1) Monitor patients receiving concurrent therapy for reduced efficacy.
DISCUSSION: Coadministration of efavirenz 600 mg once daily is expected to decrease pralsetinib concentration maximum (Cmax) by 18% and area-under-curve (AUC) by 45%.(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)
Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Praziquantel
SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 may induce the metabolism of praziquantel.(1,2)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a moderate inducer of CYP3A4 may decrease the levels and effectiveness of praziquantel.(1,2)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of praziquantel recommends avoiding concomitant administration with moderate CYP3A4 inducers due to the risk of a clinically significant decrease in praziquantel plasma concentration which may lead to reduced therapeutic effect of praziquantel.(2) In patients receiving a clinically significant CYP3A4 inducer drug who need immediate treatment for schistosomiasis, alternative agents for schistosomiasis should be considered, where possible. If praziquantel treatment is necessary immediately, increase monitoring for reduced anthelmintic efficacy associated with praziquantel, when used in combination with a moderate CYP3A4 inducer.(2) In patients receiving a clinically significant CYP3A4 inducer drug whose treatment could be delayed, discontinue the CYP3A4 inducer drug at least 2 to 4 weeks before administration of praziquantel and, where possible, consider starting alternative medications that are not CYP3A4 inducers. The CYP3A4 inducer drug can be restarted 1 day after completion of praziquantel treatment, if needed.(2)
DISCUSSION: In a crossover study, 20 healthy subjects ingested a single 40 mg/kg oral dose of praziquantel following pre-treatment with oral efavirenz (400 mg daily for 13 days).

PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Avoid the concurrent use of ripretinib with moderate CYP3A4 inducers.(1-3) When possible, select alternative agents in place of the moderate CYP3A4 inducer. If the moderate CYP3A4 inducer cannot be avoided, increase the dose of ripretinib from 150 mg once daily to 150 mg twice daily during concurrent therapy. Monitor patients receiving concurrent therapy for reduced efficacy.(1-3) If the moderate CYP3A4 inducer is discontinued, reduce the dose of ripretinib back to 150 mg once daily 14 days after discontinuation of the moderate CYP3A4 inducer.(1-3) If a dose of ripretinib is missed (in patients taking twice daily dosing): -If less than 4 hours have passed since missed dose, patient should take the dose as soon as possible and then take the next dose at the regularly scheduled time. -If more than 4 hours have passed since missed dose, patient should skip the missed dose and then take the next dose at the regularly scheduled time.(1-3)
DISCUSSION: The primary metabolism pathway for ripretinib and DP-5439 is via CYP3A4.(1) In an interaction study of rifampin (a strong CYP3A inducer) and ripretinib, concurrent use decreased ripretinib concentration maximum (Cmax) by 18% and area-under-curve (AUC) by 61%, as well as decreased the active metabolite DP-5439 AUC by 57% and increased Cmax by 37%.(1) In a pharmacokinetic model of efavirenz (a moderate CYP3A inducer), concurrent use was predicted to decrease ripretinib Cmax by 24% and decrease AUC by 56%.(1) In the presence of a moderate CYP3A inducer, a doubled ripretinib dose (twice daily rather than once daily), is predicted to result in a 17% reduction in combined AUC of ripretinib and active metabolite DP-5439, compared to the usual recommended once daily dose with no inducer present.(2) In an interaction study of itraconazole (a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor) and ripretinib, concurrent use increased ripretinib Cmax by 36% and AUC by 99%.

After the moderate CYP3A4 inducer has been discontinued for 3 to 5 elimination half-lives, resume the larotrectinib dose at the dose taken prior to initiating the CYP3A4 inducer.(1)
DISCUSSION: In a study, efavirenz (a moderate CYP3A4 inducer) was predicted to decrease area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 72% and 60%, respectively, compared to larotrectinib administered alone.(1) Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, efavirenz, elagolix, etravirine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, sotorasib, telotristat ethyl, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(3-4)
Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Paltusotine
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of paltusotine.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers may alter the clinical effectiveness of paltusotine.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Patients taking moderate CYP3A4 inducers may require an increased dosage of paltusotine.(1) The manufacturer of paltusotine states do not exceed two-fold the paltusotine dosage prior to concomitant use or 120 mg daily, whichever is less.(1) Monitor patients receiving concurrent therapy for reduced efficacy.
DISCUSSION: Paltusotine is metabolized by CYP3A4.(1) Moderate CYP3A4 inducers such as efavirenz are predicted to decrease concentration maximum (Cmax) and area-under-curve (AUC) of paltusotine approximately 5% and 30%, respectively.(1) In an interaction study, paltusotine concentration maximum (Cmax) and area-under-curve (AUC) decreased by 44% and 70%, respectively, following concomitant administration of carbamazepine (strong CYP3A 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, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(2,3)
Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Tavapadon
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)
Select Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducer/Emtricitabine-Rilpivirine-Taf
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of rilpivirine.(1-2)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of rilpivirine, as well as the development of resistance.(1-2)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US DHHS HIV guidelines state that concurrent use of bosentan or mavacamten (moderate CYP3A4 inducers) with oral rilpivirine should be monitored closely. Consider alternative therapies that do not affect CYP3A4 or alternative antiretroviral agents. If concurrent use is necessary, virologic response should be monitored.(3) The US manufacturer of oral rilpivirine states that concurrent use of rifabutin (moderate CYP3A4 inducer) warrants dose adjustment. When administering moderate CYP3A4 inducers with oral rilpivirine, increase the dose of rilpivirine to 50 mg once daily. When rifabutin co-administration is stopped, the rilpivirine dose should be decreased to 25 mg once daily. It may take several weeks after the discontinuation of an enzyme inducer for enzyme activity to return to normal.(2)
DISCUSSION: In a study in 18 subjects, rifabutin (300 mg daily) decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), and minimum concentration (Cmin) of rilpivirine (25 mg orally daily) by 31%, 42%, and 48%, respectively.(1) A study in 18 subjects compared rilpivirine administered alone (25 mg orally daily) to coadministration with rifabutin (300 mg daily) and rilpivirine (50 mg orally daily). A significant difference was not found with the Cmax (1.43), AUC (1.16), or Cmin (0.93) of rilpivirine. (2) Selected moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, elagolix, eslicarbazepine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine and tovorafenib.(3)
Selected Moderate And Strong Cyp3a4 Inducers/Siponimod
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Drugs that are moderate or strong inducers of CYP3A4 may increase the metabolism of siponimod.(1) Patients with a CYP2C9*1/*3 or *2/*3 genotype who are more dependent on CYP3A4 for the metabolism of siponimod would experience a greater effect of CYP3A4 induction.
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a siponimod with a moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducer in patients with a CYP2C9*1/*3 or *2/*3 genotype may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of siponimod.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Patients with a CYP2C9*1/*3 or *2/*3 genotype who are more dependent on CYP3A4 for the metabolism of siponimod would experience a greater effect of CYP3A4 induction. Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Monitor the combination of siponimod with a moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducer in patients with a CYP2C9*1/*3 or *2/*3 genotype for loss of efficacy.(1) Agents that are both moderate CYP3A4 inducers and moderate CYP2C9 inducers (e.g., lorlatinib) should be used with caution regardless of the patient's CYP2C9 genotype.(1)
DISCUSSION: In a study, efavirenz (a moderate CYP3A4 inducer) decreased the area-under-curve (AUC) of siponimod by up to 52% across CYP2C9 genotypes. Drugs that are moderate or strong CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: apalutamide, barbiturates, belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, elagolix, etravirine, fosphenytoin, lesinurad, lorlatinib, lumacaftor, mavacamten, mitapivat, mitotane, modafinil, nafcillin, pexidartinib, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifabutin, rifapentine, St John's Wort, sotorasib, telotristat ethyl, and tovorafenib.(2-3)
Selected Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Rilpivirine
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Moderate CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of rilpivirine.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of moderate CYP3A4 inducers may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of rilpivirine, as well as the development of resistance.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US DHHS HIV guidelines state that concurrent use of bosentan or mavacamten (moderate CYP3A4 inducers) with oral or intramuscular rilpivirine should be monitored closely. Consider alternative therapies that do not affect CYP3A4 or alternative antiretroviral agents. If concurrent use is necessary, virologic response should be monitored.(2) The US manufacturer of oral rilpivirine states that concurrent use of rifabutin (moderate CYP3A4 inducer) warrants dose adjustment. When administering moderate CYP3A4 inducers with oral rilpivirine, increase the dose of rilpivirine to 50 mg once daily. When rifabutin co-administration is stopped, the rilpivirine dose should be decreased to 25 mg once daily. It may take several weeks after the discontinuation of an enzyme inducer for enzyme activity to return to normal.(1)
DISCUSSION: In a study in 18 subjects, rifabutin (300 mg daily) decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax), area-under-curve (AUC), and minimum concentration (Cmin) of rilpivirine (25 mg orally daily) by 31%, 42%, and 48%, respectively.(1) A study in 18 subjects compared rilpivirine administered alone (25 mg orally daily) to coadministration with rifabutin (300 mg daily) and rilpivirine (50 mg orally daily). A significant difference was not found with the Cmax (1.43), AUC (1.16), or Cmin (0.93) of rilpivirine. (1) Selected moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, elagolix, eslicarbazepine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, lorlatinib, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine and tovorafenib.(3)
Selected Moderate-Weak Cyp3a4 Inducers/Exemestane
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of exemestane.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a CYP3A4 inducer may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of exemestane.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US manufacturer of exemestane recommends that patients receiving concurrent therapy with a strong CYP3A4 inducer receive 50 mg of exemestane daily after a meal.(1) It may be prudent to consider a dosage increase for patients receiving weaker CYP3A4 inducers.
DISCUSSION: In a study in 10 healthy postmenopausal subjects, pretreatment with rifampin (a strong CYP3A4 inducer, 600 mg daily for 14 days) decreased the area-under-curve (AUC) and maximum concentration (Cmax) of a single dose of exemestane (25 mg) by 54% and 41%, respectively.(1) Strong inducers of CYP3A4 would be expected to decrease the AUC of a sensitive 3A4 substrate by 80% or more and include: carbamazepine, enzalutamide, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, rifabutin, rifampin, and St. John's wort.(1-3) Moderate inducers of CYP3A4 would be expected to decrease the AUC of a sensitive 3A4 substrate by 50-80% and include: belzutifan, bosentan, cenobamate, dabrafenib, dipyrone, efavirenz, elagolix, etravirine, fexinidazole, lesinurad, mavacamten, mitapivat, modafinil, nafcillin, pacritinib, pexidartinib, repotrectinib, rifabutin, sotorasib, telotristat ethyl, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(2,3) Weak inducers of CYP3A4 would be expected to decrease the AUC of a sensitive 3A4 substrate by 20-50% and include: armodafinil, aumolertinib, bexarotene, brigatinib, brivaracetam, clobazam, danshen, darolutamide, dexamethasone, dicloxacillin, echinacea, elafibranor, enasidenib, eslicarbazepine, floxacillin, garlic, gingko, ginseng, glycyrrhizin, lorlatinib, meropenem-vaborbactam, methylprednisolone, nevirapine, omaveloxolone, oritavancin, oxcarbazepine, pioglitazone, pitolisant, quercetin, relugolix, rufinamide, sarilumab, sulfinpyrazone, sunvozertinib, suzetrigine, tazemetostat, tecovirimat, terbinafine, ticlopidine, topiramate, troglitazone, vemurafenib, vinblastine, and zanubrutinib.(2,3)
Strong & Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Apixaban; Rivaroxaban
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Apixaban and rivaroxaban are both substrates of CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein (P-gp). Apixaban is about 20% metabolized and rivaroxaban is about 18% metabolized, mainly by CYP3A4.(1-8) Strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of apixaban and rivaroxaban by CYP3A4.
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent or recent use of a CYP3A4 inducer may result in decreased levels and effectiveness of apixaban(1-4) or rivaroxaban,(5-8) especially in the setting of concurrent therapy with an agent that induces P-gp.
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks. Drug-associated risk factors include concurrent use of P-gp inducers.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The US, Australian, Canadian, and UK manufacturers of apixaban provide recommendations regarding concurrent use with strong inducers of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, but do not provide guidance for concurrent use with agents that induce CYP3A4 alone.(1) The US manufacturer of rivaroxaban provides recommendations regarding concurrent use with strong inducers of both CYP3A4 and P-gp, but does not provide guidance for concurrent use with agents that induce CYP3A4 alone.(5) The Australian manufacturer of rivaroxaban states that concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inducers should be approached with caution.(6) The Canadian and UK labels for rivaroxaban state that concurrent use of strong CYP3A4 inducers should be avoided.(7-8) When considering concurrent therapy with a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer with either apixaban or rivaroxaban, evaluate the patient's other concurrent therapy for CYP3A4 and P-gp effects. In patients who are taking strong CYP3A4 inducers and are also on concurrent P-gp inducers, consider the manufacturer recommendations for use with dual CYP3A4 and P-gp inducers. The US manufacturers of apixaban and rivaroxaban both state to avoid the concurrent use of agents that are combined P-gp and strong CYP3A4 inducers in patients receiving apixaban or rivaroxaban.(1-8) In patients who are taking moderate CYP3A4 inducers and are also on concurrent P-gp inducers, it may be prudent to consider alternative therapy or monitor the patient closely. For patients taking efavirenz or etravirine, the US and European HIV guidelines recommend considering alternative therapies or performing additional monitoring.(9-10)
DISCUSSION: The concurrent use of apixaban or rivaroxaban with strong CYP3A4 inducers that are not also P-gp inducers has not been studied. Apixaban and rivaroxaban are metabolized primarily by CYP3A4. Strong CYP3A4 inducers may decrease the levels and effectiveness of apixaban and rivaroxaban. The US manufacturer of apixaban states that apixaban dose reduction is recommended when apixaban exposure increases by more than 50%, while efficacy is maintained when exposure is 25% lower. Therefore, no dose adjustment of apixaban is recommended for drug interactions that affect apixaban exposure by 75% to 150%.(11) An article evaluating the clinical significance of efflux transporters like P-gp and BCRP in apixaban exposure analyzed pharmacokinetic data from drug-drug interaction studies and concluded that all apixaban interactions can be explained by inhibition of intestinal CYP3A4. The authors explain that apixaban is a highly permeable and soluble compound, so its ability to undergo passive diffusion renders the role of membrane transporters irrelevant, as evidenced by a lack of change in apixaban absorption rate in the presence of drugs known to inhibit P-gp and BCRP.(12) Strong CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: barbiturates, encorafenib, ivosidenib, lumacaftor, and mitotane.(13,14) Moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph 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.(13,14)
Strong And Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Perampanel
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers may induce the metabolism of perampanel by CYP3A4.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: The concurrent use of strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers and perampanel may result in decreased levels and clinical effectiveness of perampanel.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Patients receiving concurrent therapy with strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers and perampanel should be observed for decreased anticonvulsant levels and clinical effectiveness. The manufacturer of perampanel recommends a starting dose of 4 mg once daily at bedtime in patients receiving concurrent therapy with CYP3A4 inducers. Dose increases are recommended by 2 mg increments once daily based on clinical response and tolerability, no more frequently than at weekly intervals. The highest studied dose with concurrent enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs was 12 mg once daily.(1) The dose of the anticonvulsant may need to be adjusted if a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducer is added to or removed from therapy.(1)
DISCUSSION: In a study in healthy subjects, carbamazepine 300 mg BID decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area-under-curve (AUC) of a single 2 mg tablet dose of perampanel by 26% and 67%, respectively. The half-life (t1/2) of perampanel was shortened from 56.8 hours to 25 hours. In clinical studies examining partial-onset and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, a population pharmacokinetic analysis showed that perampanel AUC was reduced by 64% in patients on carbamazepine compared to the AUC in patients not on enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs.(1) In a study in partial-onset and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, a population pharmacokinetic analysis showed that perampanel AUC was reduced by 48% in patients on oxcarbazepine compared to patients not on enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs.(1) In a study in partial-onset and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures, a population pharmacokinetic analysis showed that perampanel AUC was reduced by 43% in patients on phenytoin compared to patients not on enzyme-inducing antiepileptic drugs.(1) In a study in partial-onset and primary generalized tonic-clonic seizures in clinical trials (40 patients co-administered phenobarbital and 9 patients co-administered primidone), no significant effect on perampanel AUC was found. A modest effect of phenobarbital and primidone on perampanel concentrations cannot be excluded.(1) In a study in 76 patients, concentration-to-dose (CD) ratio of perampanel was assessed with and without concurrent antiepileptic agents. In patients only on perampanel the mean CD ratio was 3963 ng/mL/mg/kg (range: 1793-13,299) compared to the mean CD ratio in patients using enzyme-inducing AEDs [1760 (range: 892-3090), 2256 (range: 700-4703), and 1120 (range: 473-1853) ng/mL/mg/kg in patients taking phenytoin, phenobarbital, and carbamazepine, respectively], and carbamazepine had a significantly greater reduction in the CD ratio compared with phenytoin or phenobarbital (P < 0.001).(3) Strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers linked to this monograph include: apalutamide, barbiturates, bosentan, carbamazepine, cenobamate, dabrafenib, efavirenz, elagolix, encorafenib, enzalutamide, eslicarbazepine, etravirine, fexinidazole, fosphenytoin, ivosidenib, lorlatinib, lumacaftor, mavacamten, mitapivat, mitotane, modafinil, nafcillin, oxcarbazepine, pacritinib, pexidartinib, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, repotrectinib, rifabutin, sotorasib, telotristat, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(1,2)
Strong And Moderate Cyp3a4 Inducers/Sildenafil (Pah)
SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed.
MECHANISM OF ACTION: Sildenafil is metabolized by CYP3A4. Strong and moderate inducers of CYP3A4 may increase the metabolism of sildenafil.(1)
CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of a strong or moderate inducer of CYP3A4 may result in substantially decreased levels and effectiveness of sildenafil.(1)
PREDISPOSING FACTORS: Induction effects may be more likely with regular use of the inducer for longer than 1-2 weeks.
PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Concomitant use of sildenafil with strong or moderate CYP3A4 inducers should be monitored closely. An increased dosage of sildenafil may be needed. Reduce sildenafil dose to 20 mg three times daily when discontinuing treatment with strong and moderate CYP3A4 inducers.(1)
DISCUSSION: Population pharmacokinetic analysis of data from patients in clinical trials found that sildenafil clearance increased about 3-fold when coadministered with mild CYP3A4 inducers.(1) A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study of 55 healthy volunteers found that 10 days of bosentan (125 mg twice daily), a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, decreased the maximum concentration (Cmax) and area-under-curve (AUC) of sildenafil by 55.4% and 62.6%, respectively. Sildenafil increased bosentan Cmax and AUC by 42% and 49.8%, respectively. The combination was well tolerated without serious adverse events.(2) In a study of 15 HIV-negative subjects, etravirine (800 mg twice daily for 14 days), a moderate CYP3A4 inducer, decreased the Cmax and AUC of sildenafil by 45% and 57%, respectively.(3) The authors of a review article on drug interactions in pulmonary arterial hypertension therapy state that phenytoin and rifampin (strong CYP3A4 inducers) are not recommended with sildenafil due to an expected near-complete clearance of sildenafil.(4) Strong inducers of CYP3A4 include: apalutamide, barbiturates, carbamazepine, encorafenib, enzalutamide, fosphenytoin, ivosidenib, lumacaftor, mitotane, phenobarbital, phenytoin, primidone, rifampin, rifapentine, and St. John's wort.(5,6) 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, thioridazine, and tovorafenib.(5,6)

Safety and efficacy of mavacamten have not been established in pediatric patients.
There are no human data on the use of mavacamten during pregnancy. Based on animal studies, mavacamten can cause fetal harm. Decreases in mean fetal body weight, reductions in fetal ossification of bones, and increases in post-implantation loss were observed in rats and increases in visceral and skeletal malformations were observed in both rabbits and rats at dose exposures similar to those achieved at the maximum recommended human dose. Obstructive HCM in pregnancy has been associated with increased risk of preterm birth.
If mavacamten is administered during pregnancy, or if a patient becomes pregnant while taking the drug or within 4 months after the last dose, report the exposure to the Bristol Myers Squibb pregnancy registry at 1-800-721-5072 or https://www.bms.com.
It is not known whether mavacamten is distributed into human milk. The effects of mavacamten on nursing infants or on milk production also are not known. Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother's clinical need for mavacamten and any potential adverse effects on the breast-fed infant from the drug or underlying maternal condition.
The manufacturer makes no specific dosage recommendations for geriatric patients.
In clinical studies evaluating mavacamten for obstructive HCM, 37.3% of patients were 65 years of age or older, and 7.8% were 75 years of age or older. Safety, effectiveness, and pharmacokinetics were similar between patients >=65 years of age and younger patients.
