Evaluation of drug-drug interaction of lusutrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, via metabolic enzymes and transporters.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Drug-drug interaction (DDI) potentials of lusutrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, on the activity of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A and of cyclosporine, which inhibits P-glycoprotein and breast cancer resistance protein, on lusutrombopag pharmacokinetics were assessed via clinical studies and physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling.

Methods

The effect of lusutrombopag on midazolam (a CYP3A probe substrate) pharmacokinetics was assessed in 15 healthy subjects receiving a single midazolam 5-mg dose with or without coadministration of lusutrombopag 0.75 mg for 6 days (first dose: 1.5-mg dose). The effect of cyclosporine on lusutrombopag pharmacokinetics was assessed in 16 healthy subjects receiving a single lusutrombopag 3-mg dose with or without a sin
