Example 6:Post-MarketingViekira Pak & Clopidogrel

Dasabuvir is a substrate of CYP2C8 enzyme and is contraindicated with strong inhibitors of CYP2C8 due to an increased risk of QT prolongation associated with increased dasabuvir exposure

Conclusions

• Clinical pharmacology plays a critical role in advancing the development of HCV DAAs.

• Clinical pharmacology plays a critical role in dose selection of HCV DAAs.

• Clinical pharmacology contributions span over the life cycle of HCV DAAs.

• Combination therapy contribute to the complexity of designing and reviewing HCV DAAs clinical pharmacology programs.
