Description
Oral multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor
Used in adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy; also used in pediatric patients with chronic-phase Ph+ CML
Severe myelosuppression has been reported
Dosage And Indications
NOTE: The FDA has designated dasatinib as an orphan drug for the treatment of CML.
For the treatment of myeloid or lymphoid blast-phase Ph+ CML with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy, including imatinib. Oral dosage Adults
140 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The dasatinib dosage may be increased to 180 mg/day if an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. Treatment with dasatinib 140 mg once daily was compared with dasatinib 70 mg twice daily in patients with imatinib-resistant or imatinib-intolerant myeloid blast-phase (MBP; n = 149) or lymphoid blast-phase (LBP; n = 61) chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) in a multicenter, randomized, phase III, non-inferiority trial. Treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in similar efficacy and improved tolerability compared with twice-daily dosing in this trial; therefore, dasatinib 140 mg once daily is the recommended dosage. After 2 years of follow-up, treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in a major hematologic response (MHR) rate (primary endpoint) of 28% in patients with MBP-CML (n = 75) and 42% in patients with LBP-CML (n = 33); the median time to MHR was 2 months in both MBP-CML and LBP-CML patients and the median MHR duration times were 8 months and 5 months, respectively. In Philadelphia chromosome-positive patients who received once-daily dasatinib, the major cytogenetic response rate was 25% (complete cytogenetic response (cCyR) rate, 14%) in 72 MBP-CML patients and 50% (cCyR rate, 38%) in 32 LBP-CML patients. The median progression-free survival times with once-daily dasatinib were 3.8 months in MBP-CML patients and 4.7 months in LBP-CML patients; the median overall survival times were 7.9 months and 11.4 months, respectively.
100 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The dasatinib dosage may be increased to 140 mg/day if an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. Four dasatinib dosages (100 mg once daily, 50 mg twice daily, 140 mg once daily, and 70 mg twice daily) were evaluated in adult patients with imatinib-resistant or imatinib-intolerant Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (Ph+ CP-CML) in a multinational, randomized, phase III, non-inferiority trial (n = 670; the CA180-034 trial). In patients with imatinib-resistant Ph+ CP-CML, treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in a noninferior major cytogenetic response (mCyR) rate (primary endpoint) compared with twice-daily dasatinib (52% vs. 49%); additionally, dasatinib 100 mg/day was noninferior to dasatinib 140 mg/day for mCyR (50% vs. 51%). Treatment with dasatinib 100 mg once daily (n = 167) resulted in similar efficacy and improved tolerability compared with other dosing arms in this trial; therefore, dasatinib 100 mg PO once daily is the recommended dosage. At a 2-year follow-up, the mCyR rate was 63% and the complete cytogenetic response (cCyR) rate was 50% in Ph+ CP-CML patients in the dasatinib 100 mg once daily treatment arm. After approximately 72 months, 31% of patients were still receiving therapy in the dasatinib 100 mg/day arm; the median duration of therapy was 29.3 months (range, 0.1 to 78 months) for all treatment arms. In patients in the dasatinib 100 mg/day treatment arm, the major molecular response rate was 43%, and the estimated 6-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 49% and 71%, respectively. Factors predictive of improved 6-year PFS and OS rates included a partial cytogenetic response or cCyR at 3 or 6 months or a reduction in BCR-ABL to 10% or less at 3 or 6 months.
NOTE: Dasatinib was not active against the T315I mutation based on in vitro data.
Oral dosage Adults
100 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The dasatinib dosage may be increased to 140 mg/day if an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. The confirmed complete cytogenetic response (cCyR) rate at 12 months (primary endpoint) was significantly higher in adult patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia who received dasatinib compared with imatinib (77% vs. 66%; p = 0.007) in a multinational, randomized, phase III trial (n = 519; the DASISION trial). The major molecular response (MMR) rate was also significantly higher with dasatinib (52% vs. 34%, p less than 0.0001). At a minimum follow-up of 60 months, the cCyR rate was 83% in the dasatinib arm and 79% in the imatinib arm; the median times to cCyR were 3.1 months and 5.8 months, respectively. The MMR rate was also higher with dasatinib therapy (76.4% vs. 64.2%). The estimated 5-year overall survival rates were 90.9% and 89.6% in patients who received dasatinib and imatinib, respectively.
140 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The dasatinib dosage may be increased to 180 mg/day if an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. Treatment with dasatinib 140 mg once daily (n = 158) was compared with dasatinib 70 mg twice daily (n = 159) in patients with imatinib-resistant or imatinib-intolerant accelerated-phase chronic myelogenous leukemia (AP-CML) in a multicenter, randomized, phase III, non-inferiority trial. Treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in similar efficacy and improved tolerability compared with twice-daily dosing in this trial; therefore, dasatinib 140 mg PO once daily is the recommended dosage. At a median follow-up time of 15 months, treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in a major hematologic response (MHR) rate (primary endpoint) of 66% in patients with AP-CML; the median time to MHR was 1.9 months. In patients who received once-daily dasatinib, the major cytogenetic response rate was 39% (complete cytogenetic response rate, 32%), the median progression-free survival was 25.1 months, and the estimated 12- and 24-month overall survival rates were 78% and 63%, respectively.
Take the dasatinib dose (based on body weight) orally once daily as follows: 10 kg to less than 20 kg = 40 mg; 20 kg to less than 30 kg = 60 mg; 30 kg to less than 45 kg = 70 mg; 45 kg or greater = 100 mg. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. Recalculate the dose at least every 3 months based on changes in body weight. Although patients 1 year of age and older may receive dasatinib therapy; tablet dosing is not recommended for patients weighing less than 10 kg. If an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose, the dasatinib dose may be increased as follows: 40 mg/day, increase to 50 mg/day; 60 mg/day, increase to 70 mg/day; 70 mg/day, increase to 90 mg/day; 100 mg/day, increase to 120 mg/day. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. In pooled results from 2 open-label, nonrandomized trials, the 24-month complete cytogenetic response (cCyR), major cytogenetic response (mCyR), and major molecular response (MMR) rates were 96.1%, 98%, and 74.5%, respectively, in patients with newly diagnosed, chronic-phase CML (n = 51; median age, 12.8 years; range, 1.9 to 17.8 years) and 82.6%, 89.1%, and 52.2%, respectively, in patients with chronic-phase CML resistant or intolerant to previous treatment with imatinib (n = 46; median age, 13.5 years; range, 2 to 20 years). The median duration times of cCyR, mCyR, MMR were not reached at a median follow-up of 4.5 years in newly diagnosed patients and 5.2 years in imatinib-resistant or -intolerant patients.[60087]
NOTE: Dasatinib has been designated as an orphan drug by the FDA for the treatment of Ph+ ALL.
For the treatment of Ph+ ALL with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy. Oral dosage Adults
140 mg orally once daily until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. The dasatinib dosage may be increased to 180 mg/day if an inadequate hematologic or cytogenetic response is achieved with the initial dose. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity.[60087] Treatment with dasatinib 140 mg once daily (n = 40) was compared with dasatinib 70 mg twice daily (n = 44) in patients aged 15 to 80 years with imatinib-resistant or imatinib-intolerant, Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) in a multicenter, randomized, phase 3, non-inferiority trial. Treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in similar efficacy and improved tolerability compared with twice-daily dosing in this trial; therefore, dasatinib 140 mg once daily is the recommended dosage. After 2 years of follow-up, treatment with once-daily dasatinib resulted in a major hematologic response (MHR) rate (primary endpoint) of 38% in patients with Ph+ ALL; the median time to MHR was 1.2 months and the median MHR duration was 4.6 months. In patients who received once-daily dasatinib, the major cytogenetic response rate was 70% (complete cytogenetic response rate, 50%), the median progression-free survival time was 4 months, and the median overall survival time was 6.5 months.[55097]
Begin dasatinib therapy (based on body weight) orally once daily starting on or before day 15 of induction chemotherapy as follows: 10 kg to less than 20 kg = 40 mg; 20 kg to less than 30 kg = 60 mg; 30 kg to less than 45 kg = 70 mg; 45 kg or greater = 100 mg. Continue therapy for 2 years. Coadministration of certain drugs may need to be avoided or dosage adjustments may be necessary; review drug interactions. Recalculate the dose at least every 3 months based on changes in body weight. Although patients 1 year of age and older may receive dasatinib therapy; tablet dosing is not recommended for patients weighing less than 10 kg. Temporary interruption of therapy and a dose reduction may be necessary in patients who develop toxicity. The 3-year event-free survival rate was 64.1% in a cohort of pediatric patients (median age, 10.4 years; range, 2.6 to 17.9 years) with newly diagnosed B-cell precursor Ph+ ALL who received dasatinib in combination with chemotherapy (the AIEOP-BFM ALL 2000 protocol) in a multicenter study (n = 78; study CA180372). Bone marrow with less than 5% lymphoblast was achieved in 96% of patients after induction therapy and 97% of patients after consolidation therapy.[60087]
Dosing Considerations
Specific guidelines for dosage adjustments in patients with baseline hepatic impairment are not available; it appears that no initial dosage adjustments are needed.
Treatment-related Toxicity in Pediatric Ph+ ALL patients:
One-level dose reduction:
For starting dose of 40 mg, reduce to 20 mgFor starting dose of 60 mg, reduce to 40 mgFor starting dose of 70 mg, reduce to 60 mgFor starting dose of 100 mg, reduce to 80 mg
Two-level dose reduction:
For dose of 20 mg, lower tablet dose not availableFor dose of 40 mg, reduce to 20 mgFor dose of 60 mg, reduce to 50 mgFor dose of 80 mg, reduce to 70 mg
Direct bilirubin level greater than 5-times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or AST/ALT level greater than 15-times the ULN: Hold dasatinib until the toxicity has recovered to grade 1 or less; resume therapy at the original starting dose. Resume dasatinib at a reduced dose if the toxicity recurs.[60087]
Specific guidelines for dosage adjustments in patients with baseline renal impairment are not available; it appears that no initial dosage adjustments are needed.
Drug Interactions
Abarelix: (Major) Abarelix may prolong the QT interval and lead to additive effects when given concurrently with dasatinib.
Abciximab: (Moderate) Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant platelet inhibitors. Abciximab is contraindicated for use in patients with a platelet count of less than 100,000 cells/microliters. Patients with thrombocytopenia are at increased risk of bleeding complications. Thus, antineoplastic agents that cause clinically significant thrombocytopenia could increase the bleeding risk associated with abciximab.
Acetaminophen; Ibuprofen: (Major) Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant anticoagulants, NSAIDs, platelet inhibitors (including aspirin), strontium-89 chloride, and thrombolytic agents. In addition, large doses of salicylates (>= 3-4 g/day) can cause hypoprothrombinemia, an additional risk factor for bleeding. Caution should be exercised if patients are required to take medications that inhibit platelet function or anticoagulants concomitantly with dasatinib.
Adagrasib: (Major) Avoid coadministration of dasatinib and adagrasib due to the potential for increased dasatinib exposure and additive risk for QT/QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). If coadministration cannot be avoided, consider a dasatinib dose reduction to 40 mg PO daily if original dose was 140 mg daily, 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 100 mg daily, or 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 70 mg daily. Stop dasatinib during use of adagrasib in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. Additionally, consider taking steps to minimize the risk for QT/QTc interval prolongation and TdP, such as electrolyte monitoring and repletion and ECG monitoring. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue adagrasib or stop dasatinib until adagrasib is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 1 week after adagrasib is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A substrate, adagrasib is a strong CYP3A inhibitor, and both medications may prolong the QT/QTc interval. Coadministration with another strong CYP3A inhibitor increased the AUC of dasatinib by 5-fold.
Alfuzosin: (Moderate) Use dasatinib with caution in combination with alfuzosin. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval. Alfuzosin may prolong the QT interval in a dose-dependent manner.
Aluminum Hydroxide: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.
Aluminum Hydroxide; Magnesium Carbonate: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.
Aluminum Hydroxide; Magnesium Hydroxide: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.
Aluminum Hydroxide; Magnesium Hydroxide; Simethicone: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.
Aluminum Hydroxide; Magnesium Trisilicate: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.
Amiodarone: (Major) Avoid coadministration of amiodarone and dasatinib due to the potential for QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval. Amiodarone, a Class III antiarrhythmic agent, is associated with a well-established risk of QT prolongation and TdP. Although the frequency of TdP is less with amiodarone than with other Class III agents, amiodarone is still associated with a risk of TdP. Due to the extremely long half-life of amiodarone, a drug interaction is possible for days to weeks after discontinuation of amiodarone.
Amisulpride: (Major) Monitor ECGs for QT prolongation when amisulpride is administered with dasatinib. Amisulpride causes dose- and concentration- dependent QT prolongation. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval.
Amlodipine; Celecoxib: (Major) Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant anticoagulants, NSAIDs, platelet inhibitors (including aspirin), strontium-89 chloride, and thrombolytic agents. In addition, large doses of salicylates (>= 3-4 g/day) can cause hypoprothrombinemia, an additional risk factor for bleeding. Caution should be exercised if patients are required to take medications that inhibit platelet function or anticoagulants concomitantly with dasatinib.
Amoxicillin; Clarithromycin; Omeprazole: (Major) Avoid coadministration of dasatinib and clarithromycin due to the potential for increased dasatinib exposure and subsequent toxicity including QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). An alternative to clarithromycin with no or minimal enzyme inhibition potential is recommended if possible. If coadministration cannot be avoided, consider a dasatinib dose reduction to 40 mg PO daily if original dose was 140 mg daily, 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 100 mg daily, or 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 70 mg daily. Stop dasatinib during use of clarithromycin in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue clarithromycin or stop dasatinib until clarithromycin is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 1 week after clarithromycin is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval; clarithromycin is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that is associated with an established risk for QT prolongation and TdP. Coadministration of another strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increased the mean Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 4-fold and 5-fold, respectively.
Anagrelide: (Major) Torsades de pointes (TdP) and ventricular tachycardia have been reported during post-marketing use of anagrelide. A cardiovascular examination, including an ECG, should be obtained in all patients prior to initiating anagrelide therapy. Monitor patients during anagrelide therapy for cardiovascular effects and evaluate as necessary. Drugs with a possible risk for QT prolongation and TdP that should be used cautiously and with close monitoring with anagrelide include dasatinib. In addition, due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant platelet inhibitors.

Flecainide: (Major) Dasatinib should be used cautiously and with close monitoring with flecainide. Flecainide is a Class IC antiarrhythmic associated with a possible risk for QT prolongation and/or torsades de pointes (TdP); flecainide increases the QT interval, but largely due to prolongation of the QRS interval. Although causality for TdP has not been established for flecainide, patients receiving concurrent drugs which have the potential for QT prolongation may have an increased risk of developing proarrhythmias. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong cardiac ventricular repolarization (prolong QT interval). Cautious dasatinib administration is recommended to patients who have or may develop QT prolongation such as patients taking drugs that lead to QT prolongation.
Fluconazole: (Contraindicated) Coadministration of fluconazole and dasatinib is contraindicated due to the potential for QT prolongation. Fluconazole has been associated with QT prolongation and is contraindicated for use with other drugs that both prolong the QT interval and are CYP3A4 substrates, such as dasatinib. Coadministration of fluconazole with dasatinib may result in elevated plasma concentrations of dasatinib, causing an increased risk for adverse events, such as QT prolongation.
Fluoxetine: (Moderate) Concomitant use of fluoxetine and dasatinib may increase the risk of QT/QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP) in some patients.

Itraconazole: (Major) Avoid dasatinib use during and for 2 weeks after discontinuation of itraconazole treatment due to the potential for increased dasatinib exposure and subsequent toxicity including QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). An alternative to itraconazole with no or minimal enzyme inhibition potential is recommended if possible. If coadministration cannot be avoided, consider a dasatinib dose reduction to 40 mg PO daily if original dose was 140 mg daily, 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 100 mg daily, or 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 70 mg daily. Stop dasatinib during use of itraconazole in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue itraconazole or stop dasatinib until itraconazole is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 2 weeks after itraconazole is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval; itraconazole is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that is associated with QT prolongation. Coadministration of another strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increased the mean Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 4-fold and 5-fold, respectively.

Stop dasatinib during use of clarithromycin in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue clarithromycin or stop dasatinib until clarithromycin is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 1 week after clarithromycin is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval; clarithromycin is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that is associated with an established risk for QT prolongation and TdP. Coadministration of another strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increased the mean Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 4-fold and 5-fold, respectively.
Lapatinib: (Moderate) Monitor for evidence of QT prolongation if lapatinib is administered with dasatinib. Lapatinib has been associated with concentration-dependent QT prolongation; ventricular arrhythmias and torsade de pointes (TdP) have been reported in postmarketing experience with lapatinib. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval.
Lefamulin: (Major) Coadministration of lefamulin tablets is contraindicated with dasatinib due to increased dasatinib exposure which may result in QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). Avoid use of lefamulin injection with dasatinib. If coadministration of lefamulin injection cannot be avoided, ECG monitoring is recommended during treatment. Dasatinib is a sensitive CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval. Lefamulin is a CYP3A4 inhibitor that has a concentration dependent QTc prolongation effect. The pharmacodynamic interaction potential to prolong the QT interval of the electrocardiogram between lefamulin and other drugs that effect cardiac conduction is unknown.

Letermovir: (Moderate) Administering letermovir with dasatinib may increase dasatinib concentration and risk for adverse events. Avoid this combination in patients also receiving cyclosporine, because the magnitude of the interaction may be increased. If use of dasatinib with both letermovir and cyclosporine cannot be avoided, consider a dose decrease of dasatinib. If on 140 mg per day dasatinib, decrease to 40 mg per day. If on 100 mg per day or 70 mg per day of dasatinib, decrease to 20 mg per day. In patients on dasatinib doses of 60 mg or 40 mg daily, do not coadminister with both letermovir and cyclosporine. Dasatinib is a sensitive substrate of CYP3A4. Letermovir is a moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor. The combined effect of letermovir and cyclosporine on CYP3A4 substrates may be similar to a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor.
Leuprolide: (Moderate) Consider whether the benefits of androgen deprivation therapy (i.e., leuprolide) outweigh the potential risks of QT prolongation in patients receiving dasatinib as concurrent use may increase the risk of QT prolongation.

Use of these drugs together may increase the risk of developing torsade de pointes-type ventricular tachycardia. Sufficient washout time of drugs that are known to prolong the QT interval prior to administration of macimorelin is recommended. Treatment with macimorelin has been associated with an increase in the corrected QT (QTc) interval. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval.
Magnesium Hydroxide: (Moderate) Separate the administration of dasatinib and antacids by at least 2 hours if these agents are used together. The simultaneous administration of an antacid with dasatinib decreased the Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 58% and 55%, respectively.

In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong cardiac ventricular repolarization (prolong QT interval). Maprotiline has been reported to prolong the QT interval, particularly in overdose or with higher-dose prescription therapy (elevated serum concentrations). Cases of long QT syndrome and torsade de pointes (TdP) tachycardia have been described with maprotiline use, but rarely occur when the drug is used alone in normal prescribed doses and in the absence of other known risk factors for QT prolongation. Limited data are available regarding the safety of maprotiline in combination with other QT-prolonging drugs.
Meclofenamate Sodium: (Major) Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant anticoagulants, NSAIDs, platelet inhibitors (including aspirin), strontium-89 chloride, and thrombolytic agents.

Caution should be exercised if patients are required to take medications that inhibit platelet function or anticoagulants concomitantly with dasatinib.
Mefloquine: (Moderate) Due to the potential for QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP), caution is advised when administering dasatinib with mefloquine. There is evidence that the use of halofantrine after mefloquine causes significant lengthening of the QTc interval. Mefloquine alone has not been reported to cause QT prolongation; however due to the lack of clinical data, mefloquine should be used with caution in patients receiving drugs that prolong the QT interval. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong cardiac ventricular repolarization (prolong QT interval).
Meloxicam: (Major) Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant anticoagulants, NSAIDs, platelet inhibitors (including aspirin), strontium-89 chloride, and thrombolytic agents.

In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong cardiac ventricular repolarization (prolong QT interval). The need to coadminister methadone with drugs known to prolong the QT interval should be done with extreme caution and a careful assessment of treatment risks versus benefits. Methadone is considered to be associated with an increased risk for QT prolongation and torsades de pointes (TdP), especially at higher doses (> 200 mg/day but averaging approximately 400 mg/day in adult patients). Laboratory studies, both in vivo and in vitro, have demonstrated that methadone inhibits cardiac potassium channels and prolongs the QT interval. Most cases involve patients being treated for pain with large, multiple daily doses of methadone, although cases have been reported in patients receiving doses commonly used for maintenance treatment of opioid addiction.
Metronidazole: (Moderate) Concomitant use of metronidazole and dasatinib may increase the risk of QT/QTc prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP) in some patients. Consider taking steps to minimize the risk of QT/QTc interval prolongation and TdP, such as avoidance, electrolyte monitoring and repletion, and ECG monitoring, especially in patients with additional risk factors for TdP.
Midostaurin: (Major) The concomitant use of midostaurin and dasatinib may lead to additive QT interval prolongation. If these drugs are used together, consider obtaining electrocardiograms to monitor the QT interval. Correct electrolyte imbalances such as hypokalemia and hypomagnesemia prior to starting dasatinib therapy.

Consider interventions to minimize the risk of progression to torsades de pointes (TdP), such as correcting electrolyte abnormalities and ECG monitoring, particularly in patients with additional risk factors for TdP. Voclosporin has been associated with QT prolongation at supratherapeutic doses. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval.
Vonoprazan; Amoxicillin: (Major) Avoid concomitant use of dasatinib and vonoprazan. Vonoprazan reduces intragastric acidity, which may decrease the absorption of dasatinib reducing its efficacy.
Vonoprazan; Amoxicillin; Clarithromycin: (Major) Avoid coadministration of dasatinib and clarithromycin due to the potential for increased dasatinib exposure and subsequent toxicity including QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). An alternative to clarithromycin with no or minimal enzyme inhibition potential is recommended if possible. If coadministration cannot be avoided, consider a dasatinib dose reduction to 40 mg PO daily if original dose was 140 mg daily, 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 100 mg daily, or 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 70 mg daily. Stop dasatinib during use of clarithromycin in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue clarithromycin or stop dasatinib until clarithromycin is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 1 week after clarithromycin is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval; clarithromycin is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that is associated with an established risk for QT prolongation and TdP. Coadministration of another strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increased the mean Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 4-fold and 5-fold, respectively. (Major) Avoid concomitant use of dasatinib and vonoprazan. Vonoprazan reduces intragastric acidity, which may decrease the absorption of dasatinib reducing its efficacy.
Vorapaxar: (Moderate) Use caution during concurrent use of vorapaxar and dasatinib. Due to the thrombocytopenic and possible platelet inhibiting effects of dasatinib, an additive risk of bleeding may be seen in patients receiving concomitant platelet inhibitors. Increased serum concentrations of vorapaxar are possible when vorapaxar, a CYP3A4 substrate, is coadministered with dasatinib, a CYP3A inhibitor. Increased exposure to vorapaxar may increase the risk of bleeding complications.
Voriconazole: (Major) Avoid coadministration of dasatinib and voriconazole due to the potential for increased dasatinib exposure and subsequent toxicity including QT prolongation and torsade de pointes (TdP). An alternative to voriconazole with no or minimal enzyme inhibition potential is recommended if possible. If coadministration cannot be avoided, consider a dasatinib dose reduction to 40 mg PO daily if original dose was 140 mg daily, 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 100 mg daily, or 20 mg PO daily if original dose was 70 mg daily. Stop dasatinib during use of voriconazole in patients receiving dasatinib 60 mg or 40 mg PO daily. If dasatinib is not tolerated after dose reduction, either discontinue voriconazole or stop dasatinib until voriconazole is discontinued. Allow a washout of approximately 1 week after voriconazole is stopped before increasing the dasatinib dose or reinitiating dasatinib. Dasatinib is a CYP3A4 substrate that has the potential to prolong the QT interval; voriconazole is a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor that is associated QT prolongation and rare cases of TdP. Coadministration of another strong CYP3A4 inhibitor increased the mean Cmax and AUC of dasatinib by 4-fold and 5-fold, respectively.
Vorinostat: (Moderate) Monitor for evidence of QT prolongation during concurrent use of dasatinib and vorinostat. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval. Vorinostat therapy is associated with a risk of QT prolongation.
Warfarin: (Moderate) Monitor for evidence of bleeding if coadministration of dasatinib and anticoagulants is necessary. Dasatinib can cause serious and fatal bleeding. Concomitant anticoagulants may increase the risk of hemorrhage.
Ziprasidone: (Major) Concomitant use of ziprasidone and dasatinib should be avoided due to a potential for additive QT prolongation. Clinical trial data indicate that ziprasidone causes QT prolongation; there are postmarketing reports of torsade de pointes (TdP) in patients with multiple confounding factors. In vitro studies have shown that dasatinib has the potential to prolong the QT interval.

Mechanism Of Action
Dasatinib is an oral multi-tyrosine kinase inhibitor that was specifically designed to inhibit SRC tyrosine kinase, which acts as a signal transducer in several molecular pathways within the cell, but was also found to inhibit BCR-ABL and imatinib-resistant mutations of BCR-ABL. The BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase is the resultant protein of the chromosome translocation (Philadelphia chromosome, Ph) which is associated with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and certain types of acute lymphocytic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Changes in the BCR-ABL protein, such as point mutations and changes in the conformation of the proteins that change the imatinib-binding site, and gene amplification lead to imatinib-resistance; however, dasatinib's chemical structural allows for activity in the majority of imatinib-resistant stages of CML and Ph+ ALL. Dasatinib more effectively inhibits the BCR-ABL kinase than imatinib. Additional rationale for the clinical response seen with dasatinib include the facts that dasatinib is not a substrate for multidrug resistance protein (P-glycoprotein), which can lead to increased concentrations within hematopoietic cells that highly express this protein and dasatinib also targets many other kinases that may contribute to the cytogenetic response. Interestingly there may not be cross-resistance between dasatinib and imatinib, as studies have identified several BCR-ABL mutations that confer resistance to dasatinib but not imatinib. In vitro studies of head and neck squamous cells and non-small cell lung cancer cells indicate that dasatinib inhibited migration and invasion in all cell lines and induced cell cycle arrest (blocking G1-S transition) and apoptosis in some cell lines. These effects are consistent with dasatinib's inhibition of SRC tyrosine kinase.
Pharmacokinetics
Dasatinib is administered orally. The apparent volume of distribution is 2,505 L (coefficient of variance (CV), 93%), the mean terminal half-life is 3 to 5 hours, and the mean apparent oral clearance is 363.8 L/hr (CV, 81.3%). Dasatinib and its active metabolite are highly bound to human plasma proteins (96% and 93%, respectively). Formation of the active metabolite occurs via CYP3A4 metabolism. Other enzymes involved in dasatinib metabolism include flavin-containing monooxygenase 3 (FMO-3) and uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT). Concentrations of an active metabolite account for about 5% of dasatinib AUC; therefore, the active metabolite is unlikely to play a role in the activity of dasatinib. Several inactive oxidative metabolites are also present. Dasatinib is eliminated primarily via the feces. Following a single dose of radiolabeled dasatinib, 4% of the radioactivity was recovered in the urine and 85% was recovered in the feces within 10 days. Unchanged dasatinib accounted for 0.1% and 19% of the administered dose in the urine and feces, respectively.
Affected cytochrome P450 isoenzymes: CYP3A4
Dasatinib is extensively metabolized by CYP3A4. Dasatinib is also a weak time-dependent inhibitor of CYP3A4. At clinically relevant concentrations, dasatinib does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, or CYP2E1; it does not induce CYP enzymes. In vitro, dasatinib is a substrate for P-glycoprotein (P-gp); it is not a P-gp inhibitor.
The Cmax and AUC values were 82.2 ng/mL (coefficient of variance (CV), 69%) and 397 ng/mL x hour (CV, 55%), respectively, following dasatinib 100 mg PO daily. The maximum plasma concentrations occur between 0.5 and 6 hours (Tmax) following oral administration. The adjusted geometric mean Cmax ratio was 0.97 and the adjusted geometric mean AUC ratio was 0.84 in healthy adult subjects who received dasatinib dispersed tablets in juice compared with intact tablets.
Effects of food: Dasatinib absorption is not significantly affected by food. In subjects who received a single dasatinib 100-mg dose with a high-fat meal (fat, 52%: carbohydrates, 34%; and protein, 14%), the mean AUC increased by 14% compared with fasted subjects.[60087]
Pregnancy And Lactation
Dasatinib may cause fetal harm or neonatal death when administered to a pregnant woman. Females of reproductive potential should avoid pregnancy; apprise women of the potential hazard to the fetus. Dasatinib crosses the placenta and has been measured in fetal plasma and amniotic fluid at concentrations comparable to maternal plasma. Adverse fetal and infant outcomes reported from women treated with dasatinib during pregnancy include congenital malformations (e.g., neural tube defects), hydrops fetalis, fetal leukopenia and thrombocytopenia, and harmful pharmacological effects.
Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing children, breast-feeding is not recommended during dasatinib therapy and for 2 weeks after the last dose. It is unknown whether dasatinib is excreted in human breast-milk.
