Sidapvia Drug Interactions

Dapagliflozin and sitagliptin: The lack of pharmacokinetic interaction between dapagliflozin and sitagliptin was demonstrated in a drug-drug interaction study between dapagliflozin and sitagliptin. No dose adjustment of either dapagliflozin or sitagliptin is needed when the two drugs are co-administered.
Dapagliflozin: The metabolism of dapagliflozin is primarily mediated by UGT1A9-dependent glucuronide conjugation. The major metabolite, dapagliflozin 3-O-glucuronide, is not an SGLT2 inhibitor.
In in vitro studies, dapagliflozin neither inhibited CYP1A2, 2A6, 2B6, 2C8, 2C9, 2C19, 2D6, 3A4, nor induced CYP1A2, 2B6 or 3A4. Therefore, dapagliflozin is not expected to alter the metabolic clearance of co-administered drugs that are metabolized by these enzymes, and drugs that inhibit or induce these enzymes are not expected to alter the metabolic clearance of dapagliflozin. Dapagliflozin is a weak substrate of the P-glycoprotein (P-gp) active transporter and dapagliflozin 3-O-glucuronide is a substrate for the organic anion transporter-3 (OAT3) active transporter. Dapagliflozin or dapagliflozin 3-O-glucuronide did not meaningfully inhibit P-gp, organic cation transporter-2 (OCT2), OAT1, or OAT3 active transporters. Overall, dapagliflozin is unlikely to affect the pharmacokinetics of concurrently administered medications that are P-gp, OCT2, OAT1, or OAT3 substrates.
Effect of other drugs on dapagliflozin: In interaction studies conducted in healthy subjects, using mainly single dose design, the pharmacokinetics of dapagliflozin were not altered by metformin (an hOCT-1 and hOCT-2 substrate), pioglitazone (a CYP2C8 [major] and CYP3A4 [minor] substrate), sitagliptin (an hOAT-3 substrate, and P-gp substrate), glimepiride (a CYP2C9 substrate), voglibose (an α-glucosidase inhibitor), hydrochlorothiazide, bumetanide, valsartan, or simvastatin (a CYP3A4 substrate). Therefore, meaningful interaction of dapagliflozin with other substrates of hOCT-1, hOCT-2, hOAT-3, P-gp, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP3A4, and other α-glucosidase inhibitor would not be expected.
Following co-administration of dapagliflozin with rifampicin (an inducer of various active transporters and drug-metabolizing enzymes) or mefenamic acid (an inhibitor of UGT1A9), a 22% decrease and a 51% increase, respectively, in dapagliflozin systemic exposure was seen, but with no clinically meaningful effect on 24-hour urinary glucose excretion in either case. No dose adjustment of dapagliflozin is recommended when dapagliflozin is co-administered with either rifampicin or mefenamic acid.
Effect of dapagliflozin on other drugs: Concomitant use of dapagliflozin and lithium may lead to a reduction in serum lithium concentrations due to a possible increased urinary clearance of lithium. The dose of lithium may need to be adjusted.
Dapagliflozin did not alter the pharmacokinetics of metformin, pioglitazone, sitagliptin, glimepiride, hydrochlorothiazide, bumetanide, valsartan, simvastatin, digoxin (a P-gp substrate), or warfarin (S-warfarin is a CYP2C substrate). Therefore, dapagliflozin is not a clinical meaningful inhibitor of hOCT-1, hOCT-2, hOAT-3, P-gp transporter pathway, and CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 mediated metabolism.
Sitagliptin: Sitagliptin is not an inhibitor of CYP isozymes CYP3A4, 2C8, 2C9, 2D6, 1A2, 2C19 or 2B6 and is not an inducer of CYP3A4. Sitagliptin is a p-glycoprotein substrate, but does not inhibit p-glycoprotein mediated transport of digoxin. Based on these results, sitagliptin is considered unlikely to cause interactions with other drugs that utilise these pathways.
Sitagliptin is not extensively bound to plasma proteins. Therefore, the propensity of sitagliptin to be involved in clinically meaningful drug-drug interactions mediated by plasma protein binding displacement is very low.
Effect of other drugs on sitagliptin: Clinical data described as follows suggest that sitagliptin is not susceptible to clinically meaningful interactions by co-administered medications: Ertugliflozin: No clinically meaningful change in sitagliptin exposure was observed following concomitant administration of a single 100 mg sitagliptin dose with 15 mg ertugliflozin compared to sitagliptin alone. The GMR and 90% CI (expressed as percentages) for sitagliptin AUC_inf and C_max for coadministration with ertugliflozin vs. sitagliptin alone were 101.67% (98.40%, 105.04%) and 101.68% (91.65%, 112.80%), respectively.
Metformin: Co-administration of multiple twice-daily doses of metformin with sitagliptin did not meaningfully alter the pharmacokinetics of sitagliptin in patients with type 2 diabetes.
Ciclosporin: A study was conducted to assess the effect of ciclosporin, a potent inhibitor of P-glycoprotein, on the pharmacokinetics of sitagliptin. Co-administration of a single 100 mg oral dose of sitagliptin and a single 600 mg oral dose of ciclosporin increased the AUC and C_max of sitagliptin by approximately 29% and 68%, respectively. These modest changes in sitagliptin pharmacokinetics were not considered to be clinically meaningful. The renal clearance of sitagliptin was also not meaningfully altered. Therefore, meaningful interactions would not be expected with other P-glycoprotein inhibitors.
Population Pharmacokinetics: Population pharmacokinetic analyses have been conducted in patients with type 2 diabetes. Concomitant medications did not have a clinically meaningful effect on sitagliptin pharmacokinetics. Medications assessed were those that are commonly administered to patients with type 2 diabetes including, but not restricted to, cholesterol-lowering agents (including statins, fibrates, ezetimibe), anti-platelet agents (including clopidogrel), antihypertensives (including ACE inhibitors, angiotensin receptor blockers, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, hydrochlorothiazide), analgesics and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents (including naproxen, diclofenac, celecoxib), antidepressants (including bupropion, fluoxetine, sertraline), antihistamines (including cetirizine), proton-pump inhibitors (including omeprazole, lansoprazole), and medications for erectile dysfunction (including sildenafil).
Effect of sitagliptin on other drugs: In clinical studies, as described as follows, sitagliptin did not meaningfully alter the pharmacokinetics of metformin, glibenclamide, ertugliflozin, simvastatin, rosiglitazone, warfarin, or oral contraceptives, providing in vivo evidence of a low propensity for causing drug interactions with substrates of CYP3A4, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, and organic cationic transporter (OCT). Multiple doses of sitagliptin slightly increased digoxin concentrations; however, these increases are not considered likely to be clinically meaningful and are not attributed to a specific mechanism.
Metformin: Coadministration of multiple twice-daily doses of sitagliptin with metformin, an OCT substrate, did not meaningfully alter the pharmacokinetics of metformin in patients with type 2 diabetes. Therefore, sitagliptin is not an inhibitor of OCT-mediated transport.
Sulfonylureas: Single-dose pharmacokinetics of glibenclamide, a CYP2C9 substrate, were not meaningfully altered in subjects receiving multiple doses of sitagliptin. Clinically meaningful interactions would not be expected with other sulfonylureas (e.g., glipizide, tolbutamide, and glimepiride) which, like glibenclamide, are primarily eliminated by CYP2C9.
Ertugliflozin: Single-dose administration of sitagliptin 100 mg had no clinically meaningful effect on the exposure of ertugliflozin 15 mg. The geometric mean ratios (GMR) and 90% CI (expressed as percentages) for ertugliflozin AUC_inf and C_max for coadministration with sitagliptin vs. ertugliflozin alone were 102.27% (99.72%, 104.89%) and 98.18% (91.20%, 105.70%), respectively.
Simvastatin: Single-dose pharmacokinetics of simvastatin, a CYP3A4 substrate, were not meaningfully altered in subjects receiving multiple daily doses of sitagliptin. Therefore, sitagliptin is not an inhibitor of CYP3A4-mediated metabolism.
Thiazolidinediones: Single-dose pharmacokinetics of rosiglitazone were not meaningfully altered in subjects receiving multiple daily doses of sitagliptin. Therefore, sitagliptin is not an inhibitor of CYP2C8-mediated metabolism. Clinically meaningful interactions with pioglitazone are not expected because pioglitazone predominantly undergoes CYP2C8- or CYP3A4-mediated metabolism.
Warfarin: Multiple daily doses of sitagliptin did not meaningfully alter the pharmacokinetics, as assessed by measurement of S(-) or R(+) warfarin enantiomers, or pharmacodynamics (as assessed by measurement of prothrombin INR) of a single dose of warfarin. Since S(-) warfarin is primarily metabolised by CYP2C9, these data also support the conclusion that sitagliptin is not a CYP2C9 inhibitor.
Oral Contraceptives: Coadministration with sitagliptin did not meaningfully alter the steady state pharmacokinetics of norethindrone or ethinyl estradiol.
Digoxin: Sitagliptin had a minimal effect on the pharmacokinetics of digoxin. Following administration of 0.25 mg digoxin concomitantly with 100 mg of sitagliptin daily for 10 days, the plasma AUC of digoxin was increased by 11%, and the plasma C_max by 18%. These increases are not considered to be clinically meaningful.
Use with other antidiabetic agents: The safety and efficacy of sitagliptin in combination with GLP-1 mimetics, or alpha-glucosidase inhibitors has not been established.
Other drugs: Sitagliptin has not been studied in combination with orlistat.
Other interactions: The effects of smoking, diet, herbal products, and alcohol use on the pharmacokinetics of SIDAPVIA or dapagliflozin have not been specifically studied.
