            Cautions

            Ivacaftor may elevate liver transaminases; assess ALT and AST before initiating, q3months during first year, and annually thereafter; monitor more frequently in patients with history of elevated transaminases; when transaminases are significantly elevated (eg, ALT/AST >5x ULN, ALT/AST >3x ULN with bilirubin >2x ULN), interrupt dosing and closely monitor until the abnormalities resolve

            Noncongenital lens opacities reported in pediatric patients with ivacaftor; baseline and follow-up ophthalmological examinations are recommended before initiating

            Drug interaction overview

            • CYP3A inducers
              • Avoid coadministration with strong CYP3A inducers
              • Coadministration with strong CYP3A inducers is not recommended, owing to significantly decreased systemic exposure to ivacaftor, which may reduce therapeutic effectiveness (eg, rifampin decreases ivacaftor AUC by 89%)
              • Tezacaftor exposures can also be expected to decrease significantly
            • CYP3A inhibitors
              • Also see Dosage Modifications
              • Strong and moderate CYP3A inhibitors significantly increase tezacaftor and ivacaftor systemic exposure; dosage regimen modifications are required if coadministered
              • Coadministration with itraconazole, a strong CYP3A inhibitor, increased tezacaftor AUC by 4-fold and ivacaftor by 15.6-fold
            • P-gp substrates
              • Coadministration with digoxin, a sensitive P-gp substrate, increased digoxin exposure by 1.3-fold, consistent with weak inhibition of P-gp by ivacaftor
              • When used concomitantly with digoxin or other substrates of P-gp with a narrow therapeutic index (eg, cyclosporine, everolimus, sirolimus, tacrolimus), appropriate monitoring should be used

            Pregnancy

            Pregnancy

            There are limited and incomplete human data from clinical trials and postmarketing reports on the use of tezacaftor and ivacaftor in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk

            Lactation

            Unknown if distributed in human breast milk

            Both tezacaftor and ivacaftor are excreted into the milk of lactating rats

            Consider the developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with the mother’s clinical need for the drug, and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed infant from the drug or from the underlying maternal condition

            Pregnancy Categories

            A: Generally acceptable. Controlled studies in pregnant women show no evidence of fetal risk.

            B: May be acceptable. Either animal studies show no risk but human studies not available or animal studies showed minor risks and human studies done and showed no risk.

            C: Use with caution if benefits outweigh risks. Animal studies show risk and human studies not available or neither animal nor human studies done.

            D: Use in LIFE-THREATENING emergencies when no safer drug available. Positive evidence of human fetal risk.

            X: Do not use in pregnancy. Risks involved outweigh potential benefits. Safer alternatives exist.

            NA: Information not available.

            Pharmacology

            Mechanism of Action

            Tezacaftor: CFTR corrector; increases amount of mature CFTR protein at the cell surface by targeting the processing and trafficking defect of the F508del CFTR protein

            Ivacaftor: CFTR potentiator; enhances function of the CFTR protein once it reaches the cell surface

            Absorption

            Peak plasma time, median at fed state: 4 hr (tezacaftor); 6 hr (ivacaftor)

            Peak plasma concentration: 5.95 mcg/mL (tezacaftor); 1.17 mcg/mL (ivacaftor)

            AUC: 84.5 mcg·h/mL (tezacaftor); 11.3 mcg·h/mL (ivacaftor)

            When administered with fat-containing foods, tezacaftor exposure was similar and ivacaftor exposure was approximately 3 times higher than when taken in a fasting state

            Distribution

            Protein bound: 99%, primarily to albumin (tezacaftor); 99%, primarily to alpha 1-acid glycoprotein and albumin (ivacaftor)

            Vd: 271 L (tezacaftor); 206 L (ivacaftor)

            Metabolism

            Both tezacaftor and ivacaftor are extensively metabolized in humans, mainly by CYP3A4 and CYP3A5

            Elimination

            Half-life: 15 hr (tezacaftor); 13.7 hr (ivacaftor)

            Clearance: 1.31 L/hr (tezacaftor); 15.7 L/hr (ivacaftor)

            Excretion

            • Feces: 72% (tezacaftor); 87.8% (ivacaftor)
            • Urine: 14% (tezacaftor); 6.6% (ivacaftor)
