DESCRIPTION
  • Afinitor 10mg is a derivative of Rapamycin
    (sirolimus) and works similarly to Rapamycin as
    an mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin)
    inhibitor.
  • It is normally used as an immunosuppressant to
    prevent rejection of organ transplants. In a
    similar fashion to other mTOR inhibitors
    Everolimus' effect is solely on the mTORC1
    protein and not on the mTORC2 protein.

MECHANISM OF ACTION
  • Everolimus is an mTOR prohibitor, joints at high
    compatibility to FK506 binding protein 12, via
    producing drug complex whichinhibits the specific
    of mTOR.
  • This inhibitiondecreases the activity of
    effectors downstream, that may cause blockage of
    cell progression from G1 into S phase,
    subsequently causes cell growth arrest and
    apoptosis

  • The high plasma concentration time of Everolimus
    is 1 to 2 hours.The effect of food with Afinitor
    10mg that with heavy meal Reduction of systemic
    exposure to Afinitor 10mg tablet and the high
    blood plasma concentration by 54.
  • DISTRIBUTION
  • Afinitor 10mg human plasma protein bound with the
    range of 74.
  • METABOLISM
  • The metabolism of Everolimus is occurred in
    liver, which is a substrate of CYP3A4.
  • EXCRETION
  • The major route of elimination

    cancer, Neuro endocrine cancerThe prescribed
    dosage is 10mg should be taken as a single

DRUG INTERACTION
  •  Afinitor 10mg interaction with strong inhibitor
    of CYP3A4, or P-gp, leads to cause decreasing the
    efflux of Everolimus and increase the plasma
    concentration of Everolimus.
  • Combination of Afinitor 10mg with verapamil
    leads to increasing the plasma concentration of
    Everolimus. Combination of Afinitor 10mg
    tablet with Atorvastatin or pravastatin causes
    rhabdomyolysis, due to increasing concentration
    of lipid lowering agents. Afinitor
    10mg combination with strong CYP3A4 inducers,
    causes increasing the exposure of Everolimus.

14
CONTRAINDICATIONS
  • Some anaphylactic reaction occurs, if patients
    are contraindicated to the components present in
