Drug Interaction	Drug Names
Bortezomib/Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) SEVERITY LEVEL: 2-Severe Interaction: Action is required to reduce the risk of severe adverse interaction. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Vitamin C can form a complex with the boronic acid moiety of the bortezomib molecule, preventing its absorption into cells.(1-4) This may protect normal tissue in the body, which may have higher levels of Vitamin C.(5) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent administration of Vitamin C may result in decreased bortezomib activity.(1-4) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Instruct patients receiving bortezomib therapy not to begin taking vitamin C supplements without consulting their oncologist first. Patients who are instructed to take vitamin C should follow their oncologist's instructions on how to separate dosages and should be carefully monitored for bortezomib efficacy. DISCUSSION: An in vitro study with human plasma and multiple myeloma cells found that high levels of vitamin C (following 1 gram/day of ascorbic acid for 4 days) decreased bortezomib effectiveness by 26%. An in vivo study in mice found that vitamin C administration with bortezomib completely blocked the response of bortezomib.(6) An in vitro study in rat Schwann cells and myeloma cells(4) and an in vivo study in mice(7) found that delayed administration of vitamin C had no effect on bortezomib effects. In an in vivo study in multiple myeloma patients, concurrent ascorbic acid, arsenic trioxide, bortezomib, and high-dose melphalan in which ascorbic acid was administered close to bortezomib, the combination was safe and well tolerated, but produced no changes in response rates.(8) In another in vivo study in multiple myeloma patients, a regimen of ascorbic acid, bortezomib, and melphalan in which bortezomib was administered in the morning and ascorbic acid in the evening was found to be safe and efficacious, with 74% of patients responding to therapy.(9)	BORTEZOMIB, BORUZU, VELCADE

There are 2 moderate interactions. The clinician should assess the patient’s characteristics and take action as needed. Actions required for moderate interactions include, but are not limited to, discontinuing one or both agents, adjusting dosage, altering administration.

Drug Interaction	Drug Names
Deferoxamine/Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: It is believed that ascorbic acid increases the iron available for chelation from an labile intracellular iron pool. Ascorbic acid may then facilitate iron-induced oxidative tissue damage.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Dietary ascorbic acid may increase the absorption of dietary iron. Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy given during chelation therapy may improve iron output;(1-9) however, excessive dosages may result in cardiac toxicity from iron-induced oxidative tissue damage.(1,2,11-13) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: None determined. PATIENT MANAGEMENT: Ascorbic acid intake is often restricted in patients with iron overload; however, it has been used in conjunction with deferoxamine to increase iron excretion.(2) Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy should only be initiated after one month of deferoxamine therapy. Ascorbic acid therapy should only be given in patients receiving deferoxamine regularly and the dose should be given after the infusion has started. The dosage of ascorbic acid should be limited to 50 mg daily in children under 10 years of age; 100 mg daily in older children; and 200 mg daily, in divided doses, in adults.(2) Cardiac function should be monitored in patients receiving concurrent therapy. Discontinue ascorbic acid therapy in patients who develop cardiac dysfunction.(2) DISCUSSION: Supplemental ascorbic acid therapy given during chelation therapy has been shown to improve iron output,(1-9) possibly by increasing iron available for chelation from an labile intracellular iron pool.(1) However, dosages in excess of 500 mg daily have been associated with cardiac dysfunction.(1,2,11-13)	DEFEROXAMINE MESYLATE, DESFERAL MESYLATE
Mavacamten/Weak CYP3A4 Inhibitors SEVERITY LEVEL: 3-Moderate Interaction: Assess the risk to the patient and take action as needed. MECHANISM OF ACTION: Weak CYP3A4 inhibitors may decrease the metabolism of mavacamten.(1) CLINICAL EFFECTS: Concurrent use of weak CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the plasma levels and the incidence and severity of adverse reactions of mavacamten.(1) PREDISPOSING FACTORS: CYP2C19 poor metabolizers may experience an increased incidence or severity of adverse effects.(1) PATIENT MANAGEMENT: The UK manufacturer of mavacamten states no dose adjustment is necessary when starting mavacamten in patients on weak CYP3A4 inhibitors or in intermediate, normal, rapid, or ultra-rapid CYP2C19 metabolizers already on mavacamten and starting a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. In poor CYP2C19 metabolizers already on mavacamten and starting a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor, reduce mavacamten 5 mg to 2.5 mg or if on 2.5 mg pause treatment for 4 weeks. If CYP2C19 phenotype is unknown, consider a mavacamten starting dose of 2.5 mg daily.(1) DISCUSSION: In a PBPK model, concomitant use of mavacamten (15 mg daily) with cimetidine 400 mg twice daily, a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor, was predicted to increase mavacamten area-under-curve (AUC) by 6% and maximum concentration (Cmax) by 4% in poor CYP2C19 metabolizers and by 3% and 2%, respectively, in both intermediate and normal CYP2C19 metabolizers.(2) Weak CYP3A4 inhibitors include: alprazolam, amiodarone, amlodipine, asciminib, azithromycin, Baikal skullcap, belumosudil, berberine, bicalutamide, blueberry, brodalumab, chlorzoxazone, cilostazol, ciprofloxacin, clotrimazole, cranberry, cyclosporine, delavirdine, dihydroberberine, diosmin, everolimus, flibanserin, fosaprepitant, fostamatinib, gepotidacin, ginkgo, givinostat, glecaprevir/pibrentasvir, goldenseal, istradefylline, ivacaftor, lacidipine, lapatinib, leflunomide, levamlodipine, linagliptin, lomitapide, lurasidone, mavorixafor, pazopanib, peppermint oil, propiverine, propofol, ranitidine, remdesivir, resveratrol, roxithromycin, sitaxsentan, skullcap, suvorexant, teriflunomide, ticagrelor, tolvaptan, trofinetide, and viloxazine.(4,5)	CAMZYOS
