Protein Family ABC transporter superfamily
Protein Function
Translocates drugs and phospholipids across the membrane (PubMed:8898203, PubMed:2897240, PubMed:9038218). Catalyzes the flop of phospholipids from the cytoplasmic to the exoplasmic leaflet of the apical membrane. Participates mainly to the flop of phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, beta-D-glucosylceramides and sphingomyelins (PubMed:8898203). Energy-dependent efflux pump responsible for decreased drug accumulation in multidrug-resistant cells (PubMed:2897240, PubMed:9038218).

      Mechanism Description
  • Decreased clearance of Relugolix due to the transporter inhibition by Tucatinib 

Recommended Action
      Management Concomitant use of relugolix with orally administered P-gp inhibitors should generally be avoided. If coadministration is required, the manufacturer recommends taking relugolix first and separating the dosing by at least 6 hours. Patients should be monitored more frequently for adverse effects. alternatively, treatment with relugolix may be interrupted for up to two weeks if a short course of treatment with a P-gp inhibitor is necessary.
