Abstract

AIMS: To evaluate the effect of lansoprazole, a proton-pump inhibitor, on the absorption, pharmacokinetics, and safety of neratinib, a pan-HER tyrosine kinase inhibitor, in healthy subjects.

METHODS: This was an open-label, two-period, fixed-sequence study. Fifteen healthy adult subjects received a single oral dose of neratinib 240 mg (Period 1), followed by a washout period, then oral lansoprazole 30 mg once daily for 7 days and a single dose of neratinib 240 mg on Day 5 (Period 2). Pharmacokinetic sampling was performed for 72 h following each neratinib dose. Plasma neratinib concentration-time data were analysed using noncompartmental methods. Geometric mean ratios for AUC0-t , AUC0-inf , and peak plasma concentrations (Cmax ) for neratinib plus lansoprazole vs. neratinib were used to assess the magnitude of the drug-drug interaction if the 90% confidence intervals were outside 80.00-125.00%.

RESULTS: Neratinib geometric least-squares mean (LSM) Cmax was reduced from 84.5 ng ml-1 with neratinib alone to 24.5 ng ml-1 with neratinib plus lansoprazole. The extent of exposure to neratinib was also decreased: geometric LSM AUC0-t was 1478 ng ml-1 h with neratinib vs. 426 ng ml-1 h with neratinib plus lansoprazole, and geometric LSM AUC0-inf was 1557 ng ml-1 h vs. 542 ng ml-1 h, respectively. Mean t½ was similar with both treatments (approximately 14 h). Geometric mean ratios 90% confidence intervals for AUC0-t , AUC0-inf and Cmax fell outside the prespecified equivalence range…

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a clinical trial, done in people. Its evidence level is 3 of 5 (Moderate · trial / cohort / secondary analysis). Trials without a large randomized design, cohorts and secondary analyses give moderate evidence.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
