Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" id="prp2156-abs-0001"> <title>Abstract</title> <p>Ibrutinib (PCI‐32765), a potent covalent inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase, has shown efficacy against a variety of B‐cell malignancies. Given the prominent role of CYP3A in ibrutinib metabolism, effect of coadministration of CYP3A perpetrators with ibrutinib was evaluated in healthy adults. Ibrutinib (120 mg [Study 1, fasted], 560 mg [studies 2 (fasted), and 3 (nonfasted)]) was given alone and with ketoconazole [Study 1; 400 mg q.d.], rifampin [Study 2; 600 mg q.d.], and grapefruit juice [GFJ, Study 3]. Lower doses of ibrutinib were used together with CYP3A inhibitors [Study 1: 40 mg; Study 3: 140 mg], as safety precaution. Under fasted condition, ketoconazole increased ibrutinib dose‐normalized (DN) exposure [DN‐AUC_last: 24‐fold; DN‐<italic>C</italic>_max: 29‐fold], rifampin decreased ibrutinib exposure [<italic>C</italic>_max: 13‐fold; AUC_last: 10‐fold]. Under nonfasted condition, GFJ caused a moderate increase [DN‐<italic>C</italic>_max: 3.5‐fold; DN‐AUC: 2.2‐fold], most likely through inhibition of intestinal CYP3A. Half‐life was not affected by CYP perpetrators indicating the interaction was mainly on first‐pass extraction. All treatments were well‐tolerated.</p> </abstract>
