Drug Interactions between Androgen Receptor Axis-Targeted Therapies and Antithrombotic Therapies in Prostate Cancer: Delphi Consensus.

: Abiraterone acetate, apalutamide, darolutamide, and enzalutamide, which make up the androgen receptor axis-targeted therapies (ARATs) drug class, are commonly used in the management of prostate cancer. Many patients on ARATs also receive oral antithrombotic therapy (i.e., anticoagulants or antiplatelets). The concomitant use of ARATs and antithrombotic therapies creates the potential for clinically relevant drug-drug interactions, but the literature regarding the actual consequences of these interactions, and guidance for co-prescribing, is limited. We assembled a multidisciplinary panel of experts and provided them with clinical information derived from a comprehensive literature review regarding the drug-drug interactions between ARATs and antithrombotic therapies. : A three-stage modified electronic Delphi process was used to gather and consolidate opinions from the panel. Each stage consisted of up to three rounds of voting to achieve consensus on which ARAT/antithrombotic therapy drug pairs warrant attention, the possible clinical consequences of drug-drug interactions, and suggested actions for management. : The panel achieved consensus to avoid 11 ARAT/antithrombotic therapy drug pairs and modify therapy for eight pairs. Assessments relied heavily on pharmacokinetic data and extrapolation from drug-drug interaction studies of similarly metabolized drugs. : This e-Delphi process highlights the need for further research into the clinical impact of ARAT/antithrombotic drug interactions. Nonetheless, the suggested actions aim to provide clinicians with a practical framework for therapeutic decision making.
