RESUMEN
This was an open-label, multicenter, phase-1 study to evaluate the drug interaction between steady-state ibrutinib and moderate (erythromycin) and strong (voriconazole) CYP3A inhibitors in patients with B-cell malignancies and to confirm dosing recommendations. During cycle 1, patients received oral ibrutinib 560 mg qd alone (Days 1-4 and 14-18), and ibrutinib 140 mg (Days 5-13; 19-27) plus erythromycin 500 mg tid (Days 5-11) and voriconazole 200 mg bid (Days 19-25). Twenty-six patients (median [range] age: 64.5 [50-88] years) were enrolled. Geometric mean ratio (90% confidence intervals) after co-administration of ibrutinib 140 mg with erythromycin and voriconazole was 74.7 (53.97-103.51) and 143.3 (107.77-190.42), respectively, versus ibrutinib 560 mg alone. The most common (≥20%) adverse events were diarrhea (27%) and neutropenia (23%). The results demonstrate that ibrutinib 140 mg with voriconazole or erythromycin provides exposure within the clinical range for patients with B-cell malignancies.
