KEGG Pathway hsa:5243
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 Lusutrombopag due to the transporter inhibition by Fidaxomicin 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution is advised if lusutrombopag is prescribed in combination with P-gp and/or BCRP inhibitors. Pharmacologic response to lusutrombopag should be monitored more closely following initiation, discontinuation, or change of dosage of the concomitant P-gp or BCRP inhibitor.
