RUCAPARIB CAMSYLATE Drug Interactions: What You Need to Know

INTERACTIONS

7.1 Effect of Rubraca on Other Drugs Certain CYP1A2, CYP3A, CYP2C9, or CYP2C19 Substrates Concomitant administration of Rubraca with CYP1A2, CYP3A, CYP2C9, or CYP2C19 substrates can increase the systemic exposure of these substrates <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )]</span> , which may increase the frequency or severity of adverse reactions of these substrates. If concomitant administration is unavoidable between Rubraca and substrates of these enzymes where minimal concentration changes may lead to serious adverse reactions, decrease the substrate dosage in accordance with the approved prescribing information. If concomitant administration with warfarin (a CYP2C9 substrate) cannot be avoided, consider increasing the frequency of international normalized ratio (INR) monitoring.

AND PRECAUTIONS Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (MDS/AML): MDS/AML occurred in patients exposed to RUBRACA, and some cases were fatal. Monitor patients for hematological toxicity at baseline and monthly thereafter. Interrupt or reduce the dose based on severity of reaction. Discontinue if MDS/AML is confirmed. ( 2.3 , 5.1 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity: RUBRACA can cause fetal harm. Advise of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.2 , 8.1 , 8.3 )

5.1 Myelodysplastic Syndrome/Acute Myeloid Leukemia Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS)/Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) occur in patients treated with RUBRACA, and are potentially fatal adverse reactions.

In

2141 treated patients with ovarian and prostate cancer [see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 )], MDS/AML occurred in 34 patients (1.6%), including those in long term follow-up. Of these, 14 occurred during treatment or during the 28-day safety follow-up (0.7%). The duration of RUBRACA treatment prior to the diagnosis of MDS/AML ranged from < 2 months to approximately 72 months. The cases were typical of secondary MDS/cancer therapy-related AML; in all cases, patients had received previous platinum-containing chemotherapy regimens and/or other DNA damaging agents. In ARIEL3, of patients with a germline and/or somatic BRCA mutation treated with RUBRACA, MDS/AML occurred in 9 out of 129 (7%) patients treated with RUBRACA and 4 out of 66 (6%) patients treated with placebo. The duration of therapy with RUBRACA in patients who developed secondary MDS/cancer therapy-related AML varied from 1.2 to 4.7 years. In TRITON3, MDS/AML occurred in 2 out of 201 patients (1%) with a BRCA mutation treated with RUBRACA. The duration of therapy with RUBRACA in patients who developed secondary MDS/cancer therapy-related AML varied from 1.4 to 2.3 years. Do not start Rubraca until patients have recovered from hematological toxicity caused by previous chemotherapy (≤ Grade 1). Monitor complete blood counts for cytopenia at baseline and monthly thereafter for clinically significant changes during treatment. For prolonged hematological toxicities (> 4 weeks), interrupt Rubraca or reduce dose according to Table 1 [see Dosage and Administration ( 2.3 )] and monitor blood counts weekly until recovery. If the levels have not recovered to Grade 1 or less after 4 weeks or if MDS/AML is suspected, refer the patient to a hematologist for further investigations, including bone marrow analysis and blood sample for cytogenetics. If MDS/AML is confirmed, discontinue Rubraca.

5.2 Embryo-Fetal Toxicity Rubraca can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman based on its mechanism of action and findings from animal studies. In an animal reproduction study, administration of rucaparib to pregnant rats during the period of organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal death at exposures that were 0.04 times the AUC 0-24h in patients receiving the recommended human dose of 600 mg twice daily. Apprise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use effective contraception during treatment and for 6 months following the last dose of Rubraca <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 , 8.3 ) and Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.1 )]</span>. Based on findings from genetic toxicity and animal reproduction studies, advise male patients with female partners of reproductive potential or who are pregnant to use effective contraception during treatment and for 3 months following the last dose of Rubraca <span class="opacity-50 text-xs">[see Use in Specific Populations ( 8.1 , 8.3 )]</span>.
