Drug-Drug Interaction Potential of Mavacamten with Midazolam: Combined Results from Clinical and Model-Based Studies.

ABSTRACT: Mavacamten is a potential inducer of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and could reduce the effectiveness of concomitant drugs that are metabolized by CYP3A4, such as midazolam. This study aimed to determine if repeat doses of mavacamten achieving clinically relevant exposures affected midazolam exposure. This was a single-center, open-label study in healthy participants. Participants received: on day 1, midazolam 5 mg; on days 2-3, mavacamten 25 mg; on days 4-16, mavacamten 15 mg; and on day 17, mavacamten 15 mg and midazolam 5 mg. Plasma concentrations of mavacamten, midazolam, and the midazolam metabolite 1'-hydroxymidazolam were measured. A physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model was used to simulate the effect of mavacamten-mediated CYP3A4 induction on midazolam exposure by CYP2C19
