Severe hyperglycemia associated with ketoacidosis has been reported in clinical trials.
The safety of this drug in patients with type 1 diabetes or those requiring insulin has not been established; insulin-dependent diabetic patients were excluded from clinical trials.
Assess fasting blood glucose levels before the initiation of treatment and during the treatment period.
If hyperglycemia develops after treatment initiation, monitor fasting blood glucose levels based on clinical indications, and conduct monitoring at least twice a week until fasting blood glucose returns to the normal range.
If a patient develops hyperglycemia during treatment, refer to the dose adjustment guidelines.
Severe diarrhea accompanied by dehydration may occur.
Monitor for signs and symptoms of diarrhea.
Patients are advised to increase oral fluid intake and initiate antidiarrheal treatment at the first sign of diarrhea during Capivasertib therapy.
Cutaneous adverse reactions may occur, which can be severe, including erythema multiforme, palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia syndrome, and drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS).
Monitor for signs and symptoms of cutaneous reactions.
1. Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: Avoid concomitant use. If coadministration is unavoidable, reduce the dose of capivasertib and monitor for adverse reactions. Strong CYP3A inhibitors can increase capivasertib exposure.
2. Moderate CYP3A Inhibitors: Adjust the dose. Moderate CYP3A inhibitors can increase capivasertib exposure; if coadministration is necessary, reduce the dose of capivasertib.
3. Strong or Moderate CYP3A Inducers: Avoid concomitant use. Strong or moderate CYP3A inducers can decrease capivasertib exposure, which may reduce its therapeutic efficacy.
