Summary
Glofitamab releases cytokines that can temporarily suppress CYP enzymes, so repaglinide levels may rise. This increases the risk of hypoglycemia.
What this interaction means in plain words
Glofitamab and Repaglinide can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.
Glofitamab belongs to Oncology; Repaglinide belongs to Endocrine.
Why it happens
Cytokine-mediated suppression of CYP3A4 and CYP2C8 raises repaglinide exposure.
What to do
Monitor blood glucose during the initial dosing cycles and any cytokine release syndrome. Reduce the repaglinide dose if glucose falls.
