Clinical information

From the regulator-approved product information. Each section names its source.

Uses

TYBOST is a CYP3A inhibitor indicated to increase systemic exposure of atazanavir or darunavir (once daily dosing regimen) in combination with other antiretroviral agents in the treatment of HIV-1 infection in adults and in pediatric patients weighing at least 14 kg. Limitations of Use: TYBOST is not interchangeable with ritonavir to increase systemic exposure of darunavir 600 mg twice daily, fosamprenavir, saquinavir, or tipranavir due to lack of exposure data. The use of TYBOST is not recommended with darunavir 600 mg twice daily, fosamprenavir, saquinavir, or tipranavir. Complex or unknown mechanisms of drug interactions preclude extrapolation of ritonavir drug interactions to certain TYBOST interactions. TYBOST and ritonavir when administered with either atazanavir or darunavir may result in different drug interactions when used with concomitant medications.

How it works

Cobicistat is a mechanism-based inhibitor of cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A). Inhibition of CYP3A-mediated metabolism by cobicistat increases the systemic exposure of CYP3A substrates atazanavir and darunavir.

Dosing overview

TYBOST must be coadministered with atazanavir or darunavir at the same time, with food, and in combination with other HIV-1 antiretroviral agents. Recommended dosage in adults: Adult Patient Populations Coadministered Agent Dosage TYBOST Dosage Treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced atazanavir 300 mg orally once daily 150 mg orally once daily Treatment-naïve or treatment-experienced with no darunavir resistance-associated substitutions darunavir 800 mg orally once daily Recommended dosage in pediatric patients: TYBOST 150 mg or TYBOST 90 mg orally once daily based on body weight. For dosage recommendations for TYBOST and the coadministered protease inhibitor atazanavir or darunavir in pediatric patients, refer to Table 2 and Table 3 of the full prescribing information respectively. Prior to starting TYBOST, assess estimated creatinine clearance.

Contraindications

The concomitant use of TYBOST with atazanavir or darunavir and the following drugs is contraindicated due to the potential for serious and/or life-threatening events or loss of therapeutic effect. Alpha 1-adrenoreceptor antagonist: alfuzosin Antianginal: ranolazine Antiarrhythmic: dronedarone Anticonvulsants: carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin Anti-gout: colchicine Antimycobacterial: rifampin Antineoplastics: irinotecan These contraindications apply only to TYBOST coadministered with atazanavir Antipsychotics: lurasidone, pimozide Ergot Derivatives: dihydroergotamine, ergotamine, methylergonovine Herbal Products: St. John's wort ( Hypericum perforatum ) Hormonal Contraceptives…

Warnings and precautions

Assess creatinine clearance (CLcr) before initiating treatment. When TYBOST is used in combination with a TDF-containing regimen, cases of acute renal failure and Fanconi syndrome have been reported. Use with TDF: Assess urine glucose and urine protein at baseline and monitor CLcr, urine glucose, and urine protein. Monitor serum phosphorus in patients with or at risk for renal impairment. TYBOST in combination with more than one antiretroviral that requires pharmacokinetic enhancement (i.e., two protease inhibitors or elvitegravir in combination with a protease inhibitor) is not recommended. Use with HIV-1 protease inhibitors other than atazanavir or darunavir administered once daily is not recommended. Coadministration with drugs or regimens containing ritonavir is not recommended.

Side effects

The following adverse reaction is described in greater detail in another section of the labeling: New Onset or Worsening Renal Impairment When Used with Tenofovir Disoproxil Fumarate. The most common adverse drug reactions observed with TYBOST in combination with atazanavir (incidence greater than 5%, Grades 2−4) are jaundice and rash.

Interactions

TYBOST, in combination with atazanavir or darunavir, can alter the concentration of drugs metabolized by CYP3A or CYP2D6. Drugs that induce CYP3A can alter the concentrations of TYBOST, atazanavir and darunavir. Consult the full prescribing information prior to and during treatment for potential drug interactions.
