ion of strong CYP3A modulators on RYDAPT.
Table 6: Drug Interactions with RYDAPT that Affect Midostaurin
Strong CYP3A Inhibitors
Clinical Impact
Coadministration of RYDAPT with strong CYP3A inhibitors may increase midostaurin concentrations. The increase in midostaurin concentrations may be pronounced if strong CYP3A inhibitors are administered during the first week of RYDAPT administration [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
Increased midostaurin concentrations may increase the risk of toxicity.
Prevention or Management
Consider alternative therapies that do not strongly inhibit CYP3A activity.
Alternatively, with coadministration of RYDAPT and strong CYP3A inhibitors, monitor patients for increased risk of adverse reactions, especially during the first week of consecutive RYDAPT administration in advanced SM population, and during first week of RYDAPT administration in each cycle of chemotherapy in AML population.
Examples Boceprevir, clarithromycin, cobicistat, conivaptan, danoprevir and ritonavir, diltiazem, elvitegravir and ritonavir, grapefruit juicea, idelalisib, indinavir and ritonavir, itraconazole, ketoconazole, lopinavir and ritonavir, nefazodone, nelfinavir, paritaprevir and ritonavir and (ombitasvir and/or dasabuvir), posaconazole, ritonavir, saquinavir and ritonavir, tipranavir and ritonavir, troleandomycin, voriconazole
Strong CYP3A Inducers
Clinical Impact
Coadministration of RYDAPT with strong CYP3A inducers may decrease midostaurin concentrations [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)].
Decreased midostaurin concentrations may reduce efficacy.
Prevention or Management Avoid coadministration of RYDAPT with strong CYP3A4 inducers.
Examples Carbamazepine, enzalutamide, mitotane, phenytoin, rifampin, St. John’s wortb
a The effect of grapefruit juice varies widely among brands and is concentration-, dose-, and preparation-dependent. Studies have shown that it can be classified as a “strong CYP3A inhibitor” when a certain preparation was used (e.g., high dose, double strength) or as a “moderate CYP3A inhibitor” when another preparation was used (e.g., low dose, single strength).
b The induction potency of St. John’s wort may vary widely based on preparation.

8.1 Pregnancy
Risk Summary
Based on mechanism of action and findings in animal reproduction studies, RYDAPT may cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.1)]. There are no available data on RYDAPT use in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk of major birth defects and miscarriage. In animal reproduction studies, oral administration of midostaurin to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis caused embryo-fetal toxicities, including late embryo-fetal death and reduced fetal birth weight, with delays in fetal growth at doses lower than the recommended human dose [see Data]. Advise pregnant women of the potential risk to a fetus.
The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population are unknown. Adverse outcomes in pregnancy occur regardless of the health of the mother or the use of medications. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically |
