4.5     Interaction with other medicinal products and other forms of interaction

 

Drugs that may decrease itraconazole plasma concentrations

Co-administration of itraconazole with strong enzyme inducers of CYP3A4 may decrease the exposure of itraconazole and hydroxy-itraconazole to such an extent that efficacy may be largely reduced. Examples include:

Antibacterials: isoniazid, rifabutin (see also under ‘Drugs that may have their plasma concentrations increased by itraconazole’), rifampicin.

Anticonvulsants: carbamazepine, (see also under ‘Drugs that may have their plasma concentrations increased by itraconazole’), phenobarbital, phenytoin.

Antivirals: efavirenz, nevirapine.

Herbal medicine: Hypericum perforatum (St John’s Wort).

 

*************

 

Drugs that may increase itraconazole plasma concentrations

Strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 may increase the exposure of itraconazole. Examples include:

-            Antibacterials: ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin, erythromycin.

-            Antivirals: ritonavir-boosted darunavir, ritonavir-boosted fosamprenavir, indinavir (see also under ‘Drugs that may have their plasma concentrations increased by itraconazole’), ritonavir (see also under ‘Drugs that may have their plasma concentrations increased by itraconazole’) and telaprevir.

It is recommended that these drugs be used with caution when co-administered with itraconazole oral solution. It is recommended that patients who must take itraconazole concomitantly with strong inhibitors of CYP3A4 be monitored closely for signs or symptoms of increased or prolonged pharmacologic effects of itraconazole, and the itraconazole dose be decreased as deemed necessary. When appropriate, it is recommended that itraconazole plasma concentrations be measured.

4.6     Fertility, pregnancy and lactation

 

Pregnancy

SPORANOX Oral Solution must not be used during pregnancy except for life-threatening cases where the potential benefit to the mother outweighs the potential harm to the foetus (see section 4.3).

 

In animal studies itraconazole has shown reproduction toxicity (see section 5.3).

 

Epidemiological data on exposure to SPORANOX during the first trimester of pregnancy – mostly in patients receiving short-term treatment for vulvovaginal candidosis – did not show an increased risk for malformations as compared to control subjects not exposed to any known teratogens. Itraconazole has been shown to cross the placenta in a rat model.

 

Women of childbearing potential

Women of childbearing potential taking SPORANOX Oral Solution should use contraceptive precautions. Effective contraception should be continued until the menstrual period following the end of SPORANOX therapy.

 

Breast-feeding

A very small amount of itraconazole is excreted in human milk. SPORANOX Oral Solution must not be used during lactation.

Addition of the following text into section 5.3

Hydroxypropyl-ß-cyclodextrin
Non-clinical data reveal no special hazard for humans based on conventional studies of repeated dose toxicity, genotoxicity, and toxicity to reproduction and development. In a rat carcinogenicity study hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin produced adenocarcinomas in the large intestine and exocrine pancreatic adenocarcinomas. These findings were not observed in a similar mouse carcinogenicity study. The clinical relevance of the large intestine adenocarcinomas is low and the mechanism of exocrine pancreatic adenocarcinomas induction not considered relevant to humans.

Change to section 4.8 - Undesirable Effects

Paediatric Population

The safety of SPORANOX oral solution was evaluated in 250 paediatric patients aged 6 months to 14 years who participated in five open-label clinical trials. These patients received at least one dose of SPORANOX oral solution for prophylaxis of fungal infections or for treatment of oral thrush or systemic fungal infections and provided safety data.

Based on pooled safety data from these clinical trials, the very common reported ADRs in paediatric patients were Vomiting (36.0%), Pyrexia (30.8%), Diarrhoea (28.4%), Mucosal inflammation (23.2%), Rash (22.8%), Abdominal pain (17.2%), Nausea (15.6%), Hypertension (14.0%), and Cough (11.2%). The nature of ADRs in paediatric patients is similar to that observed in adult subjects, but the incidence is higher in the paediatric patients.

 

 

Change to section 5.1 - Pharmacodynamic Properties

Paediatric Population

The tolerability and safety of itraconazole oral solution was studied in the prophylaxis of fungal infections in 103 neutropenic paediatric patients aged 0 to14 years (median 5 years) in an open‑label uncontrolled phase III clinical study. Most patients (78%) were undergoing allogenic bone marrow transplantation for haematological malignancies. All patients received 5 mg/kg/day of itraconazole oral solution as a single or divided dose. Due to the design of the study, no formal conclusion with regard to efficacy could be derived. The most common adverse events considered definitely or possibly related to itraconazole were vomiting, abnormal liver function, and abdominal pain.

 

Change to section 5.2 - Pharmacokinetic Properties

Paediatric Population:

Two pharmacokinetic studies have been conducted in neutropenic children aged 6 months to 14 years in which itraconazole oral solution was administered 5 mg/kg once or twice daily. The exposure to itraconazole was somewhat higher in older children (6 to 14 years) compared to younger children. In all children, effective plasma concentrations of itraconazole were reached within 3 to 5 days after initiation of treatment and maintained throughout treatment.

Change to section 4.4 - Hearing Loss

Transient or permanent hearing loss has been reported in patients receiving treatment with itraconazole. Several of these reports included concurrent administration of quinidine which is contraindicated (see sections 4.3 and 4.5). The hearing loss usually resolves when treatment is stopped, but can persist in some patients.
