Drug interaction overview
Pazopanib is CYP3A4, P-gp, and BCRP substrate; moderate CYP3A4, CYP2D6, and CYP2C8 inhibitor
-
Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors
- Avoid coadministration
- Strong CYP3A4 inhibitors increases pazopanib concentrations
- If unable to avoid, adjust pazopanib dose
-
Strong CYP3A4 inducers
- Avoid coadministration
- Strong CYP3A4 inducers may decrease plasma pazopanib concentrations
-
Transporters
- Avoid coadministration
- Strong inhibitors of P-gp or BCRP may increase pazopanib concentrations
- Consider selection of alternative concomitant medicinal products with no or minimal potential to inhibit P-gp or BCRP
-
CYP3A4, CYP2D6, or CYP2C8 substrates with narrow therapeutic use
- Not recommended
- Coadministration with agents with narrow therapeutic windows that are metabolized by CYP3A4, CYP2D6, or CYP2C8 may inhibit the metabolism of these products and increase the risk for toxicities
-
Gastric acid-reducing agents
- Avoid use
- Coadministration with esomeprazole, a PPI, decreased the exposure of pazopanib
-
Simvastatin
- Coadministration of simvastatin increases the risk of ALT elevations
- Insufficient data are available to assess the risk of concomitant use of alternative statins with pazopanib
-
Drugs that prolong the QT interval
- Avoid coadministration
- Therapy is associated with QTc interval prolongation
Pregnancy & Lactation
Pregnancy
Based on animal studies and its mechanism of action, fetal harm may occur; advise pregnant women of potential risk to a fetus
No data available on use in pregnant females to evaluate drug-associated risk
Verify pregnancy status of females of reproductive potential before starting treatment
Contraception
- Females of reproductive potential: Use effective contraception during treatment and for at least 2 weeks after last dose
- Males (including those who have had vasectomies) with female partners of reproductive potential: Use condoms during treatment and for at least 2 weeks after last dose
Infertility
- Based on findings from animal studies, fertility may be impaired in females and males of reproductive potential while receiving treatment
Animal studies
- In animal developmental and reproductive toxicology studies, oral administration to pregnant rats and rabbits throughout organogenesis resulted in teratogenicity, and abortion at systemic exposures lower than that observed at the MRHD of 800 mg/day (based on AUC)
Lactation
No data available on the drug presence or its metabolites in human milk or the effects on the breastfed infant or milk production
Advise females not to breastfeed during treatment and for 2 weeks after last dose
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

PAZOPANIB - ORAL
(paz-OH-pa-nib)
COMMON BRAND NAME(S): Votrient
WARNING: Pazopanib can rarely cause very serious (possibly fatal) liver disease. Your doctor will order blood tests to check your liver before you start and while you are taking pazopanib. During the first 2 months of treatment, liver tests will be done often, usually every 2 weeks. After 2 months, liver testing will be less frequent. Tell your doctor right away if you develop symptoms of liver disease such as nausea/vomiting that doesn't stop, dark urine, yellow eyes/skin, stomach/abdominal pain. Your doctor may need to change your dosage or discontinue the drug.
USES: Pazopanib is used to treat certain types of cancer (kidney, soft tissue sarcoma). Pazopanib belongs to a class of drugs known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors. It works by decreasing the blood supply to the cancer tumor to slow tumor growth.This medication should not be used by children, especially those younger than 2 years of age, because of the risk of serious side effects.
HOW TO USE: Read the Medication Guide provided by your pharmacist before you start taking pazopanib and each time you get a refill. If you have any questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.Take this medication by mouth without food as directed by your doctor, usually once daily. It is very important to take this medication on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after food.Swallow this medication whole. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablets. Doing so can release all of the drug at once, increasing the risk of side effects.Avoid eating grapefruit or drinking grapefruit juice while using this medication unless your doctor or pharmacist says you may do so safely. Grapefruit can increase the chance of side effects with this medicine. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details.Medications that reduce/block stomach acid (such as antacids, H2 blockers such as famotidine/ranitidine, proton pump inhibitors-PPIs such as omeprazole/lansoprazole) may reduce the absorption of pazopanib, making it work less well. Do not take H2 blockers or PPIs while using this medication. If you are taking antacids, ask your pharmacist about how to best take them, such as taking antacids at least several hours apart from when you take pazopanib. Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any of these medications.The dosage is based on your medical condition, lab tests, response to treatment, and other medications you may be taking. Be sure to tell your doctor and pharmacist about all the products you use (including prescription drugs, nonprescription drugs, and herbal products).Your doctor will order lab tests to find the best dose for you. Keep all medical and lab appointments.Do not increase your dose or take this drug more often than prescribed. Your condition will not improve any faster, and your risk of serious side effects will increase. Use this medication regularly to get the most benefit from it. To help you remember, take it at the same time each day. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully.Since this medication can be absorbed through the skin and lungs, women who are pregnant or who may become pregnant should not handle this medication or breathe the dust from the tablets.Tell your doctor if your condition worsens.
SIDE EFFECTS: See also Warning section.Diarrhea, nausea/vomiting, headache, loss of appetite, weight loss, altered sense of taste, numbness/tingling/redness in hands/feet, or feeling tired/weak may occur. If these effects last or get worse, tell your doctor or pharmacist promptly.Temporary hair loss and/or change in hair or skin color may occur. Normal hair growth should return after treatment has ended.People using this medication may have serious side effects. However, you have been prescribed this drug because your doctor has judged that the benefit to you is greater than the risk of side effects. Careful monitoring by your doctor may decrease your risk.Tell your doctor right away if you have any serious side effects, including: symptoms of heart failure (such as swelling ankles/feet, unusual tiredness), signs of an underactive thyroid (such as unusual weight gain, cold intolerance, slow heartbeat), signs of infection (such as sore throat that doesn't go away, fever, chills, cough), wounds that do not heal.This drug can cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding. Tell your doctor right away if you have any signs of unusual bleeding such as: bloody/black stools, easy bleeding/bruising (such as nose bleed or bloody/pinkish urine), vomit that looks like coffee grounds, severe stomach/abdominal pain, coughing up blood.Pazopanib sometimes causes side effects due to the rapid destruction of cancer cells (tumor lysis syndrome). To lower your risk, your doctor may add a medication and tell you to drink plenty of fluids. Tell your doctor right away if you have symptoms such as: signs of kidney problems (such as painful urination, pink/bloody urine, change in the amount of urine), muscle spasms/weakness.This medication may raise your blood pressure. Check your blood pressure regularly and tell your doctor if the results are high.
