Halaven Drug Interactions

Eribulin is mainly (up to 70%) eliminated through biliary excretion. The transport protein involved in this process is unknown. Eribulin is not a substrate of breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), organic anion (OAT1, OAT3, OATP1B1, OATP1B3), multi-drug resistance-associated protein (MRP2, MRP4) and bile salt export pump (BSEP) transporters.
No drug-drug interactions are expected with CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers. Eribulin exposure (AUC and C_max) was unaffected by ketoconazole, a CYP3A4 and P glycoprotein (Pgp) inhibitor, and rifampicin, a CYP3A4 inducer.
Effects of eribulin on the pharmacokinetics of other medicines: In vitro data indicate that eribulin is a mild inhibitor of the important drug metabolising enzyme CYP3A4. No in vivo data are available. Caution and monitoring for adverse events is recommended with concomitant use of substances that have a narrow therapeutic window and that are eliminated mainly via CYP3A4-mediated metabolism (eg alfentanil, cyclosporine, ergotamine, fentanyl, pimozide, quinidine, sirolimus, tacrolimus).
Eribulin does not inhibit the CYP enzymes CYP1A2, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6 or 2E1 at relevant clinical concentrations.
At relevant clinical concentrations, eribulin did not inhibit BCRP, OCT1, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, OATP1B1 and OATP1B3 transporter-mediated activity.
