Rucaparib

Indications/Dosage

Labeled

  • ovarian cancer
  • prostate cancer

Off-Label

    † Off-label indication

    For the treatment of ovarian cancer

    NOTE: Rucaparib is designated by the FDA as an orphan drug for this indication.

    for the maintenance treatment of BRCA-mutated (germline and/or somatic) recurrent epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer after a complete or partial response to platinum-based chemotherapy, as monotherapy

    Oral dosage

    Adults

    600 mg orally twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The investigator-assessed median progression-free survival time was significantly improved in patients with BRCA-mutated, platinum-sensitive, recurrent ovarian, primary peritoneal, or fallopian tube carcinoma who received rucaparib compared with placebo (16.6 months vs. 5.4 months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.23; 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.34) in a subgroup analysis (n = 196) of a randomized (2:1), phase 3 (ARIEL3) trial. At the final overall survival (OS) analysis, the median OS times were 45.9 months and 47.8 months (HR = 0.83; 95% CI: 0.58 to 1.19) in patients with a BRCA-mutation who received rucaparib and placebo, respectively. The median age was 58 (range, 42 to 81) years in patients with a BRCA-mutation who received rucaparib; in these patients, all had received at least 2 (range, 2 to 5) previous platinum-based chemotherapy regimens and 22% of patients had received prior bevacizumab therapy.[61608]

    for the treatment of BRCA mutation-positive (germline and/or somatic) epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer in patients who have received 2 or more prior chemotherapy regimens, as monotherapy†

    Oral dosage

    Adults

    Dosage not available.

    For the treatment of prostate cancer

    for the treatment of BRCA-mutated (germline and/or somatic) metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in patients who have previously been treated with androgen receptor-directed therapy and a taxane-based chemotherapy

    Oral dosage

    Adults

    600 mg PO twice daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients should concurrently receive treatment with a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analog or have had a bilateral orchiectomy. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. Treatment with rucaparib resulted in a confirmed objective response rate of 44% in patients with BRCA-mutated metastatic CRPC who had been treated with androgen receptor-directed therapy and taxane-based chemotherapy in an ongoing multicenter, noncomparative trial. The median duration of response was not evaluable.[61608]

    Therapeutic Drug Monitoring

    Dosage Adjustments for Treatment-Related Toxicities:

    • First Dose Reduction: 500 mg orally twice daily
    • Second Dose Reduction: 400 mg orally twice daily
    • Third Dose Reduction: 300 mg orally twice daily

    Hematologic Toxicity

    • Grade 1 or higher hematologic toxicity: Hold rucaparib therapy and monitor CBC weekly. When toxicity resolves to grade 1 or less, rucaparib therapy may be resumed; if resolution has not occurred by 4 weeks, refer the patient to a hematologist for further evaluation.[61608]

    Description/Classification

    Description

    Rucaparib is an oral poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitor. It is indicated for the maintenance treatment of BRCA-mutated recurrent ovarian cancer after a response to platinum-based chemotherapy and for the treatment of BRCA-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer in patients previously treated with androgen receptor-directed therapy and taxane-based chemotherapy. PARP enzymes are involved in normal cellular homeostasis, including DNA transcription, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair; increased cytotoxicity and anti-tumor activity has been noted in cell lines and mouse tumor models with deficiencies in BRCA. The most common grade 3 or 4 adverse reactions occurring in more than 10% of patients included anemia, asthenia/fatigue, increased ALT, and neutropenia.[61608]

      New primary malignancy, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), occurred in 32 of 1,594 patients (2%) with ovarian cancer treated with rucaparib, after a duration of therapy ranging from less than 2 months to about 72 months. These cases were typical of cancer therapy-related MDS/AML; all patients had received prior treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy and other DNA damaging agents. Fourteen cases (0.9%) occurred during treatment or during the 28-day safety follow-up. MDS/AML was not observed in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (n = 209), regardless of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) mutation. Monitor complete blood counts (CBC) prior to starting therapy and monthly thereafter. Rucaparib should not be started until any prior hematologic toxicity resolves to grade 1 or lower. If recovery to grade 1 or less has not occurred within 4 weeks, the patient should be referred to a hematologist for further investigations including a bone marrow analysis and cytogenetics. Rucaparib should be discontinued if a diagnosis of MDS or AML is confirmed.[61608]

      Contraindications/Precautions

      Absolute contraindications are italicized.

      • breast-feeding
      • contraception requirements
      • leukemia
      • male-mediated teratogenicity
      • myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
      • pregnancy
      • pregnancy testing
      • reproductive risk

      Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been reported in 20 patients who received rucaparib therapy, including those in long term follow-up, between 1 to 53 months after starting treatment with rucaparib (n = 1,146); 8 of these patients developed MDS/AML during treatment or during the 28-day safety follow-up. All patients had received prior treatment with platinum-containing chemotherapy and other DNA damaging agents. MDS and/or AML was not observed in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, regardless of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) mutation. Monitor complete blood counts (CBC) prior to starting therapy and monthly thereafter. Rucaparib should not be started until any prior hematologic toxicity resolves to grade 1 or less. For prolonged hematologic toxicity (greater than 4 weeks), hold therapy or reduce the dose and check a CBC every week until recovery. If resolution to grade 1 or less has not occurred after 4 weeks or if MDS/AML is suspected, the patient should be referred to a hematologist for further investigations including a bone marrow analysis and cytogenetics. Rucaparib should be discontinued if a diagnosis of MDS or AML is confirmed.[61608]

      Pregnancy should be avoided by females of reproductive potential during rucaparib treatment and for at least 6 months after the last dose. Although there are no adequately controlled studies in humans, rucaparib can cause fetal harm or death when administered during pregnancy based on its mechanism of action and animal studies. Administration of rucaparib to pregnant rats during organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal death in all animals at exposures equal to 0.04 times the AUC expected at recommended human doses.[61608]

      Counsel patients about the reproductive risk and contraception requirements during rucaparib treatment. Rucaparib can be cause embryo-fetal death if taken by the mother during pregnancy. Females should avoid pregnancy and use effective contraception during and for at least 6 months after treatment. Females of reproductive potential should undergo pregnancy testing prior to initiation of rucaparib. Due to the risk of male-mediated teratogenicity, males with female partners of reproductive potential should not donate sperm and should use effective contraception during treatment and for 3 months after the last dose. Women who become pregnant while receiving rucaparib should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. Fertility studies have not been conducted; however, there were no effects on male or female reproductive organs in rats or dogs at exposures of 0.09 to 0.3 times the exposures expected with recommended dosing in humans.[61608]

      Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from rucaparib, advise women to discontinue breast-feeding during treatment and for 2 weeks after the final dose. It is not known whether rucaparib is present in human milk, although many drugs are excreted in human milk.[61608]

      Mechanism of Action

      Rucaparib inhibits poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes, including PARP1, PARP2, and PARP3. PARP enzymes are involved in normal cellular homeostasis, such as DNA transcription, cell cycle regulation, and DNA repair. In vitro, inhibition of PARP enzyme activity by rucaparib results in increased PARP-DNA complexes, causing DNA damage, apoptosis, and cell death. Increased cytotoxicity has been observed with rucaparib exposure in tumor cell lines with deficiencies in BRCA 1/2 and other DNA repair genes. In mouse xenograft models of human cancer with or without BRCA deficiencies, rucaparib has been shown to decrease tumor growth.[61608]

      Pharmacokinetics

      Rucaparib is administered orally. In vitro, rucaparib is 70% protein bound in human plasma. It is preferentially distributed to red blood cells with a blood-to-plasma concentration ratio of 1.8. The mean apparent volume of distribution is 2,300 liters (CV, 21%). The mean terminal half-life of rucaparib is 26 hours (CV, 39%). The mean apparent clearance at steady-state is 44.2 L/hour (CV, 45%). After administration of a single radiolabeled dose, unchanged rucaparib accounted for 64% of the radioactivity in plasma. Rucaparib accounted for 45% of radioactivity in the urine and 95% of radioactivity in the feces.[61608]

       

      Affected cytochrome P450 isoenzymes (CYP450) or drug transporters: CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4

      In vitro, rucaparib is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 and to a lesser extent by CYP1A2 and CYP3A4. Additionally, N-demethylation, N-methylation, and glucuronidation are involved in rucaparib metabolism. In vitro, rucaparib is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and BCRP. In clinical studies, rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor as well as a weak inhibitor of CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and P-gp. In vitro, rucaparib inhibited CYP2C8, CYP2D6, UGT1A1, OATP1B1, OATP1B3, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, MATE2K, OCT1, OCT2, and MRP4; it induced CYP1A2.[61608]

      Route-Specific Pharmacokinetics

      Oral Route

      The exposure-response relationship and time course of pharmacodynamic response for the safety and effectiveness of rucaparib has not been fully characterized. The mean steady-state Cmax of rucaparib at the approved recommended dosing was 1,940 ng/mL (CV, 54%), reached at a Tmax of 1.9 hours (range, 0 to 5.98 hours). The AUC was 16,900 ng x hour/mL (CV, 54%), and the mean AUC accumulation ratio was 3.5-fold to 6.2-fold. Mean absolute bioavailability is 36% (range, 30% to 45%). The pharmacokinetics (AUC and Cmax) of rucaparib were linear from a dose of 240 mg to 840 mg twice daily.[61608]

      A high-fat meal (approximately 800 to 1,000 calories; 250 calories from carbohydrates, 500 to 600 calories from fat, and 150 calories from protein) increased the Cmax by 20% and the AUC by 38%, while the Tmax was delayed by 2.5 hours as compared to fasting conditions.[61608]

      Special Populations

      Hepatic Impairment

      Mild hepatic impairment (total bilirubin less than the upper limit of normal [ULN] and AST greater than ULN; or total bilirubin 1.1 to 1.5 times ULN and any AST) did not have a clinically meaningful effect on the pharmacokinetics of rucaparib. Moderate hepatic impairment (total bilirubin 1.6 to 3 times ULN and any AST) increased the AUC of rucaparib by 45% but had no effect on Cmax compared to patients with normal hepatic function. The effect of severe hepatic impairment (total bilirubin greater than 3 times ULN and any AST) has not been studied.[61608]

      Renal Impairment

      Mild to moderate renal impairment (CrCl 30 mL/min or higher) did not have a clinically meaningful effect on the pharmacokinetics of rucaparib. The effect of severe renal impairment (CrCl 15 to 29 mL/min) or end-stage renal disease (CrCl less than 15 mL/min) has not been studied.[61608]

      Pregnancy/Breast-feeding

      pregnancy

      Pregnancy should be avoided by females of reproductive potential during rucaparib treatment and for at least 6 months after the last dose. Although there are no adequately controlled studies in humans, rucaparib can cause fetal harm or death when administered during pregnancy based on its mechanism of action and animal studies. Administration of rucaparib to pregnant rats during organogenesis resulted in embryo-fetal death in all animals at exposures equal to 0.04 times the AUC expected at recommended human doses.[61608]

      breast-feeding

      Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing infants from rucaparib, advise women to discontinue breast-feeding during treatment and for 2 weeks after the final dose. It is not known whether rucaparib is present in human milk, although many drugs are excreted in human milk.[61608]

      Acetaminophen; Aspirin, ASA; Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Acetaminophen; Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Acetaminophen; Caffeine; Dihydrocodeine: (Moderate) Concomitant use of dihydrocodeine with rucaparib may increase dihydrocodeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6, increased dihydromorphine concentrations, and prolonged opioid adverse reactions, including hypotension, respiratory depression, profound sedation, coma, and death. If coadministration is necessary, monitor patients closely at frequent intervals and consider a dosage reduction of dihydrocodeine until stable drug effects are achieved. Discontinuation of rucaparib could decrease dihydrocodeine plasma concentrations, decrease opioid efficacy, and potentially lead to a withdrawal syndrome in those with physical dependence to dihydrocodeine. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor the patient carefully and consider increasing the opioid dosage if appropriate. Rucaparib is a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4, an isoenzyme partially responsible for the metabolism of dihydrocodeine. [30282] [61608] (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Acetaminophen; Caffeine; Pyrilamine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Acetaminophen; Codeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in codeine-related adverse reactions, including sedation and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; consider reducing the dose of codeine if clinically appropriate. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal until stable drug effects are achieved and consider increasing the codeine dose if necessary. Codeine is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 to morphine, and by CYP3A4 to norcodeine; norcodeine does not have analgesic properties. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Concomitant use may result in an increase in codeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6 and increased morphine concentrations. [30634] [33654] [61608] Acetaminophen; Hydrocodone: (Moderate) Consider a reduced dose of hydrocodone with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. Hydrocodone is a CYP3A4 substrate, and coadministration with CYP3A4 inhibitors like rucaparib can increase hydrocodone exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of hydrocodone. These effects could be more pronounced in patients also receiving a CYP2D6 inhibitor. If rucaparib is discontinued, hydrocodone plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to hydrocodone. [30379] [56303] [58531] [61608] Acetaminophen; Oxycodone: (Moderate) Consider a reduced dose of oxycodone with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing the oxycodone dose until stable drug effects are achieved and monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal. Oxycodone is a CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Coadministration can increase oxycodone exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of oxycodone. If rucaparib is discontinued, oxycodone plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to oxycodone. [39926] [61608] Alfentanil: (Moderate) Consider a reduced dose of alfentanil with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing the alfentanil dose until stable drug effects are achieved and monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal. Alfentanil is a sensitive CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Coadministration can increase alfentanil exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of alfentanil. If rucaparib is discontinued, alfentanil plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to alfentanil. [30072] [61608] Alosetron: (Major) Avoid coadministration of alosetron and rucaparib unless clinically necessary due to the risk of increased plasma concentrations of alosetron. Alosetron is a CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. Coadministration with a strong CYP1A2 inhibitor increased alosetron exposure by approximately 6-fold and prolonged the half-life by approximately 3-fold. Concomitant use with moderate CYP1A2 inhibitors has not been evaluated, but is expected to have similar potential drug interactions. [28382] [61608] Alprazolam: (Major) Avoid coadministration of alprazolam and rucaparib due to the potential for elevated alprazolam concentrations, which may cause prolonged sedation and respiratory depression. If coadministration is necessary, consider reducing the dose of alprazolam as clinically appropriate and monitor for an increase in alprazolam-related adverse reactions. Lorazepam, oxazepam, or temazepam may be safer alternatives if a benzodiazepine must be administered in combination with rucaparib, as these benzodiazepines are not oxidatively metabolized. Alprazolam is a CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Coadministration with another weak CYP3A4 inhibitor increased alprazolam maximum concentration by 82%, decreased clearance by 42%, and increased half-life by 16%. [28040] [61608] Amitriptyline: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in amitriptyline-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; a dose reduction of amitriptyline may be necessary. Concurrent use may increase the plasma concentrations of amitriptyline. Amitriptyline is a CYP2D6 substrate and rucaparib is a CYP2D6 inhibitor. [28557] [61608] Amlodipine; Celecoxib: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in celecoxib-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Celecoxib is a CYP2C9 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP2C9 inhibitor. [28317] [61608] Aripiprazole: (Moderate) Monitor for aripiprazole-related adverse reactions during concomitant use of rucaparib. Patients receiving both a CYP2D6 inhibitor plus rucaparib may require an aripiprazole dosage adjustment. Dosing recommendations vary based on aripiprazole dosage form, CYP2D6 inhibitor strength, and CYP2D6 metabolizer status. See prescribing information for details. Concomitant use may increase aripiprazole exposure and risk for side effects. Aripiprazole is a CYP3A and CYP2D6 substrate; rucaparib is a weak CYP3A inhibitor. [42845] [53394] [60196] [61608] [63328] [68911] Aspirin, ASA; Butalbital; Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Aspirin, ASA; Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Aspirin, ASA; Caffeine; Orphenadrine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Aspirin, ASA; Carisoprodol; Codeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in codeine-related adverse reactions, including sedation and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; consider reducing the dose of codeine if clinically appropriate. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal until stable drug effects are achieved and consider increasing the codeine dose if necessary. Codeine is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 to morphine, and by CYP3A4 to norcodeine; norcodeine does not have analgesic properties. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Concomitant use may result in an increase in codeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6 and increased morphine concentrations. [30634] [33654] [61608] Aspirin, ASA; Oxycodone: (Moderate) Consider a reduced dose of oxycodone with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing the oxycodone dose until stable drug effects are achieved and monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal. Oxycodone is a CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Coadministration can increase oxycodone exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of oxycodone. If rucaparib is discontinued, oxycodone plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to oxycodone. [39926] [61608] Belzutifan: (Moderate) Monitor for anemia and hypoxia if concomitant use of rucaparib with belzutifan is necessary due to increased plasma exposure of belzutifan which may increase the incidence and severity of adverse reactions. Reduce the dose of belzutifan as recommended if anemia or hypoxia occur. Belzutifan is a CYP2C19 substrate and rucaparib is a CYP2C19 inhibitor. [61608] [66875] Bendamustine: (Major) Consider the use of an alternative therapy if rucaparib treatment is needed in patients receiving bendamustine. Rucaparib may increase bendamustine exposure, which may increase the risk of adverse reactions (e.g., myelosuppression, infection, hepatotoxicity). Bendamustine is a CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a CYP1A2 inhibitor. [55945] [60454] [61608] [64723] Bupivacaine; Lidocaine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in lidocaine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Lidocaine is a CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. Coadministration may increase lidocaine plasma concentrations. [31536] [31537] [31538] [31539] [61608] Bupivacaine; Meloxicam: (Moderate) Consider a meloxicam dose reduction and monitor for adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Concurrent use may increase meloxicam exposure. Meloxicam is a CYP2C9 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP2C9 inhibitor. [61608] [65019] Buprenorphine: (Moderate) Concomitant use of buprenorphine and rucaparib can increase the plasma concentration of buprenorphine, resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects, particularly when rucaparib is added after a stable buprenorphine dose is achieved. If concurrent use is necessary, consider dosage reduction of buprenorphine until stable drug effects are achieved. Monitor patient for respiratory depression and sedation at frequent intervals. When stopping rucaparib, the buprenorphine concentration may decrease, potentially resulting in decreased opioid efficacy or a withdrawal syndrome in patients who had developed physical dependency. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing buprenorphine dosage until stable drug effects are achieved. Monitor for signs of opioid withdrawal. Buprenorphine is a substrate of CYP3A4 and rucaparib is a CYP3A4 inhibitor. [41235] [41666] [61608] Buprenorphine; Naloxone: (Moderate) Concomitant use of buprenorphine and rucaparib can increase the plasma concentration of buprenorphine, resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects, particularly when rucaparib is added after a stable buprenorphine dose is achieved. If concurrent use is necessary, consider dosage reduction of buprenorphine until stable drug effects are achieved. Monitor patient for respiratory depression and sedation at frequent intervals. When stopping rucaparib, the buprenorphine concentration may decrease, potentially resulting in decreased opioid efficacy or a withdrawal syndrome in patients who had developed physical dependency. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing buprenorphine dosage until stable drug effects are achieved. Monitor for signs of opioid withdrawal. Buprenorphine is a substrate of CYP3A4 and rucaparib is a CYP3A4 inhibitor. [41235] [41666] [61608] Butalbital; Acetaminophen; Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Butalbital; Acetaminophen; Caffeine; Codeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in codeine-related adverse reactions, including sedation and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; consider reducing the dose of codeine if clinically appropriate. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal until stable drug effects are achieved and consider increasing the codeine dose if necessary. Codeine is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 to morphine, and by CYP3A4 to norcodeine; norcodeine does not have analgesic properties. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Concomitant use may result in an increase in codeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6 and increased morphine concentrations. [30634] [33654] [61608] Butalbital; Aspirin; Caffeine; Codeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in codeine-related adverse reactions, including sedation and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; consider reducing the dose of codeine if clinically appropriate. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal until stable drug effects are achieved and consider increasing the codeine dose if necessary. Codeine is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 to morphine, and by CYP3A4 to norcodeine; norcodeine does not have analgesic properties. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Concomitant use may result in an increase in codeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6 and increased morphine concentrations. [30634] [33654] [61608] Caffeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.55-fold. [27950] [61608] (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Caffeine; Sodium Benzoate: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in caffeine-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Some patients may need to reduce or limit their caffeine intake. Caffeine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP1A2 inhibitor. Concomitant use increased the AUC of caffeine by 2.6-fold. [27950] [61608] Carbamazepine: (Moderate) Monitor carbamazepine concentrations closely during coadministration of rucaparib; carbamazepine dose adjustments may be needed. Concomitant use may increase carbamazepine concentrations. Carbamazepine is a CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a CYP3A4 inhibitor. [41237] [61608] Celecoxib: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in celecoxib-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Celecoxib is a CYP2C9 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP2C9 inhibitor. [28317] [61608] Celecoxib; Tramadol: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in celecoxib-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Celecoxib is a CYP2C9 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP2C9 inhibitor. [28317] [61608] (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in tramadol-related adverse reactions, including serotonin syndrome, seizures, sedation, and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; the risk is greatest if rucaparib is added to a stable dose of tramadol. Consider decreasing the dose of tramadol if necessary. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor and tramadol is metabolized by both CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. Coadministration with a CYP3A4 inhibitor may result in a greater amount of tramadol metabolism via CYP2D6, and greater levels of the active metabolite, M1. [28314] [32475] [61608] Chlordiazepoxide; Amitriptyline: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in amitriptyline-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; a dose reduction of amitriptyline may be necessary. Concurrent use may increase the plasma concentrations of amitriptyline. Amitriptyline is a CYP2D6 substrate and rucaparib is a CYP2D6 inhibitor. [28557] [61608] Chlorpheniramine; Codeine: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in codeine-related adverse reactions, including sedation and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; consider reducing the dose of codeine if clinically appropriate. If rucaparib is discontinued, monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal until stable drug effects are achieved and consider increasing the codeine dose if necessary. Codeine is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6 to morphine, and by CYP3A4 to norcodeine; norcodeine does not have analgesic properties. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. Concomitant use may result in an increase in codeine plasma concentrations, resulting in greater metabolism by CYP2D6 and increased morphine concentrations. [30634] [33654] [61608] Chlorpheniramine; Hydrocodone: (Moderate) Consider a reduced dose of hydrocodone with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. Hydrocodone is a CYP3A4 substrate, and coadministration with CYP3A4 inhibitors like rucaparib can increase hydrocodone exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of hydrocodone. These effects could be more pronounced in patients also receiving a CYP2D6 inhibitor. If rucaparib is discontinued, hydrocodone plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to hydrocodone. [30379] [56303] [58531] [61608] Cholera Vaccine: (Moderate) Patients receiving immunosuppressant medications may have a diminished response to the live cholera vaccine.

[28228] [61608] Dofetilide: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in dofetilide-related adverse reactions, including QT prolongation, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor and dofetilide is a minor CYP3A4 substrate; however, because there is a linear relationship between dofetilide plasma concentration and QTc, concomitant administration of CYP3A4 inhibitors may increase the risk of arrhythmia (torsade de pointes). [28221] [61608] Eliglustat: (Major) In poor CYP2D6 metabolizers (PMs), coadministration of rucaparib and eliglustat is not recommended. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A inhibitor; eliglustat is a CYP3A substrate. In extensive CYP2D6 metabolizers (EM) with mild hepatic impairment, coadministration of these agents requires dosage reduction of eliglustat to 84 mg PO once daily. Because CYP3A plays a significant role in the metabolism of eliglustat in CYP2D6 PMs, coadministration of eliglustat with CYP3A inhibitors may increase eliglustat exposure and the risk of serious adverse events (e.g., QT prolongation and cardiac arrhythmias) in these patients.

A major step in roflumilast metabolism is the N-oxidation of roflumilast to roflumilast N-oxide by CYP3A4 and CYP1A2. Rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor and a weak inhibitor of CYP3A4. Dual inhibitors of CYP3A4 and CYP1A2 may increase roflumilast exposure. [43551] [61608] SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) vaccines: (Moderate) Patients receiving immunosuppressant medications may have a diminished response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine. When feasible, administer indicated vaccines prior to initiating immunosuppressant medications. Counsel patients receiving immunosuppressant medications about the possibility of a diminished vaccine response and to continue to follow precautions to avoid exposure to SARS-CoV-2 virus after receiving the vaccine. [65107] [66080] SARS-CoV-2 Virus (COVID-19) Adenovirus Vector Vaccine: (Moderate) Patients receiving immunosuppressant medications may have a diminished response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine. When feasible, administer indicated vaccines prior to initiating immunosuppressant medications. Counsel patients receiving immunosuppressant medications about the possibility of a diminished vaccine response and to continue to follow precautions to avoid exposure to SARS-CoV-2 virus after receiving the vaccine. [65107] [66080] SARS-CoV-2 Virus (COVID-19) mRNA Vaccine: (Moderate) Patients receiving immunosuppressant medications may have a diminished response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine. When feasible, administer indicated vaccines prior to initiating immunosuppressant medications. Counsel patients receiving immunosuppressant medications about the possibility of a diminished vaccine response and to continue to follow precautions to avoid exposure to SARS-CoV-2 virus after receiving the vaccine. [65107] [66080] SARS-CoV-2 Virus (COVID-19) Recombinant Spike Protein Nanoparticle Vaccine: (Moderate) Patients receiving immunosuppressant medications may have a diminished response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus vaccine. When feasible, administer indicated vaccines prior to initiating immunosuppressant medications. Counsel patients receiving immunosuppressant medications about the possibility of a diminished vaccine response and to continue to follow precautions to avoid exposure to SARS-CoV-2 virus after receiving the vaccine. [65107] [66080] Sirolimus: (Moderate) Monitor sirolimus concentrations and adjust sirolimus dosage as appropriate during concomitant use of rucaparib. Coadministration may increase sirolimus concentrations and increase the risk for sirolimus-related adverse effects. Sirolimus is a CYP3A substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A inhibitor. [28610] [61608] Sufentanil: (Moderate) Because the dose of the sufentanil sublingual tablets cannot be titrated, consider an alternate opiate if rucaparib must be administered. Consider a reduced dose of sufentanil injection with frequent monitoring for respiratory depression and sedation if concurrent use of rucaparib is necessary. If rucaparib is discontinued, consider increasing the sufentanil injection dose until stable drug effects are achieved and monitor for evidence of opioid withdrawal. Sufentanil is a CYP3A4 substrate, and coadministration with a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor like rucaparib can increase sufentanil exposure resulting in increased or prolonged opioid effects including fatal respiratory depression, particularly when an inhibitor is added to a stable dose of sufentanil. If rucaparib is discontinued, sufentanil plasma concentrations will decrease resulting in reduced efficacy of the opioid and potential withdrawal syndrome in a patient who has developed physical dependence to sufentanil. [30966] [61608] [63731] Tacrolimus: (Moderate) Frequently monitor tacrolimus levels and watch for an increase in tacrolimus-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Tacrolimus is a sensitive substrate of CYP3A4 and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. [28611] [61608] Theophylline, Aminophylline: (Moderate) Monitor theophylline levels and watch for an increase in theophylline-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; a theophylline dose reduction may be necessary. Theophylline is a CYP1A2 substrate with a narrow therapeutic index and rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. [50760] [61608] (Minor) Monitor theophylline levels and watch for an increase in theophylline-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; a theophylline dose reduction may be necessary. Theophylline is a CYP1A2 substrate with a narrow therapeutic index and rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. [50760] [61608] Tizanidine: (Major) Avoid coadministration of tizanidine with rucaparib if possible due the risk of increased plasma concentrations of tizanidine. If concomitant use is unavoidable, monitor for an increase in tizanidine-related adverse reactions (e.g., hypotension, bradycardia, excessive drowsiness). Tizanidine is a sensitive CYP1A2 substrate and rucaparib is a moderate CYP1A2 inhibitor. [52430] [61608] Tramadol: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in tramadol-related adverse reactions, including serotonin syndrome, seizures, sedation, and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; the risk is greatest if rucaparib is added to a stable dose of tramadol. Consider decreasing the dose of tramadol if necessary. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor and tramadol is metabolized by both CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. Coadministration with a CYP3A4 inhibitor may result in a greater amount of tramadol metabolism via CYP2D6, and greater levels of the active metabolite, M1. [28314] [32475] [61608] Tramadol; Acetaminophen: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in tramadol-related adverse reactions, including serotonin syndrome, seizures, sedation, and respiratory depression, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary; the risk is greatest if rucaparib is added to a stable dose of tramadol. Consider decreasing the dose of tramadol if necessary. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor and tramadol is metabolized by both CYP3A4 and CYP2D6. Coadministration with a CYP3A4 inhibitor may result in a greater amount of tramadol metabolism via CYP2D6, and greater levels of the active metabolite, M1. [28314] [32475] [61608] Triazolam: (Moderate) Monitor for signs of triazolam toxicity during coadministration with rucaparib and consider appropriate dose reduction of triazolam if clinically indicated. Coadministration may increase triazolam exposure. Triazolam is a sensitive CYP3A substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A inhibitor. [28556] [41543] [61608] Ubrogepant: (Major) Limit the initial and second dose of ubrogepant to 50 mg if coadministered with rucaparib. Concurrent use may increase ubrogepant exposure and the risk of adverse effects. Ubrogepant is a CYP3A4 substrate; rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. [61608] [64874] Verteporfin: (Moderate) Use caution if coadministration of verteporfin with rucaparib is necessary due to the risk of increased photosensitivity. Verteporfin is a light-activated drug used in photodynamic therapy; all patients treated with verteporfin will be photosensitive. Concomitant use of other photosensitizing agents like rucaparib may increase the risk of a photosensitivity reaction. [30003] [61608] Vinorelbine: (Moderate) Monitor for an earlier onset and/or increased severity of vinorelbine-related adverse reactions, including constipation and peripheral neuropathy, if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Vinorelbine is a CYP3A4 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4 inhibitor. [56871] [61608] Voriconazole: (Moderate) Monitor for an increase in voriconazole-related adverse reactions if coadministration with rucaparib is necessary. Voriconazole is a CYP2C19 substrate and rucaparib is a weak CYP2C19 inhibitor. Concomitant use may increase plasma concentrations of voriconazole. [54713] [61608] Warfarin: (Moderate) Closely monitor the INR if coadministration of warfarin with rucaparib is necessary as concurrent use may increase the exposure of warfarin leading to increased bleeding risk. Rucaparib is a weak CYP3A4/CYP2C9/CYP1A2 inhibitor and warfarin is a CYP3A4/CYP2C9/CYP1A2 substrate. [28549] [61608]
