Abstract

We recently reported in this journal that administration of acid suppressant such as an H2-receptor antagonist (H2RA) and a proton pump inhibitor can decrease the absorption of dasatinib from the gastrointestinal tract, thereby resulting in a significant decrease in its plasma concentration. Here, we report a patient treated with dasatinib and H2RA famotidine for whom the total area under the total plasma concentration–time curve (AUC0–12) of dasatinib dramatically increased after cessation of famotidine from 505.7 to 1,816.3 ng·h/mL. This is the first report to confirm the drug interaction between dasatinib and H2RA by using sequential pharmacokinetic profiling.

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on antibody–drug conjugates in cancer

Antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) are novel agents that have shown promise across multiple tumor types. Explore the current landscape of ADCs in breast and lung cancer with our experts, and gain insights into the mechanism of action, key clinical trials data, existing challenges, and future directions.
