Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) tablets consist of active ingredients known as Erlotinib (Generic Tarceva), that is considered as quinazoline derivative and anti-cancer agents that responses as a protein kinase prohibitors for EGFR related to tyrosine kinase. Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) is majorly used in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer and pancreatic carcinoma and also involved to treat various cancers. Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) is especially aimed the epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kin   ase.

INDICATIONS of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

Non small cell lung cancer:
Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) is indicated as continuance therapy, in patients with long lasting or metastasis non small cell lung carcinoma, whose disease has not get advance after four cycles with platinum based first line therapy. Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) is used in this condition only after the failure of one prior chemotherapy regimen. No clinical advantages occur while using Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with platinum based compounds like Carboplatin, gemcitabine or cisplatin.

MECHANISM OF ACTION  of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) has pharmacological effects like anti-neoplastic activity, which exhibits its action by inhibiting the intracellular phosphorylation of tyrosine kinase related with epidermal growth factor receptor. This EGFR is present on the surface of the tumor cells. Thus results as inhibition causes interfere with signal transduction and lead to cell lyses.

ADME of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

The peak plasma concentration time reaches at 4 hours after drug intake After an oral administration of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg), causes 60% of oral bioavailability. Increased by meals to 100%. The solubility of Erlotinib is depends upon pH level. If solubility decreases then leads to increasing pH levels. Smoking should be avoided during the treatment with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg), causes decreasing the exposure of Erlotinib. The apparent volume of distribution of Erlotinib is 232L Human protein binding to Erlotinib is occurs as 93%. The metabolism of Erlotinib is occurs by CYP3A4 The route of elimination of Erlotinib metabolites occurs via; Feces: 83%; urine: 8% half life period of Erlotinib is 36.2 hours.

During the therapy, some undesirable effects like; Paronychia, Bullous, blistering and expoliative skin conditions like Stevens Johnson’s syndrome. Gastrointestinal perforation Hepatic failure occurs during monotherapy or combination with other chemotherapy agents Some common side effects: Diarrhea, Fatigue, Anorexia, Pruritus, Acne, Dermatitis, Dry skin, Loss of weight, Paronychia, Cough, Vomiting, Conjunctivitis, Keratoconjuctivities sicca, Abdominal pain, Stomatits, Infection, nausea, Bone pain, Alopecia, Anxiety, Neuropathy, Renal disorders, hepatic disorders, ocular disorders, skin, hair and nail disorders.          

 

PRECAUTIONS  of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

 

Pulmonary toxicity: Interstitial lung disease and other pulmonary toxicity conditions, Avoid the treatment with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) Renal failure: Frequent monitoring of renal function or serum electrolytes occurs or avoids the treatment. Bullous & exfoliative skin disorders Myocardial infarction or Ischemia Cerebrovascular accident Ocular disorder Elevation of bleeding while concurrent use with warfarin Hemolytic anemia or thrombocytopenia In pregnancy condition In all these condition, treatment using with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) should be avoided. Hepatic failure: Hepatic function should be periodically monitored, or otherwise discontinue the therapy with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg). Gastro intestinal perforation: In this condition, discontinue the Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) therapy permanently. This condition is occurs due to concurrent use of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with NSAIDS, anti-angiogenic drugs, corticosteroids, taxane based chemotherapy or other drugs etc.

DRUG INTERACTION  of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

Co administration of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with midazolam causes decreasing the AUC of CYP3A4 substrate. Drugs involved in alteration of pH levels causes variation in solubility of Erlotinib. Avoid concomitant use of gastric regulators with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg). Avoid concomitant use of warfarin with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg), causes increasing the bleeding condition. Co administration of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with CYP3A4 strong inhibitors like ketaconazole causes increasing Erlotinib exposure. Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) concomitant with statins drugs (lipid lowering drug), causes increasing the concentration of these drugs (rosuvastatin, simvastatin or atorvastatin). Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) concurrently used with ciprofloxacin, CYP3A4 & CYP1A2 inhibitor causes elevation of exposure of Erlotinib tablets. CYP3A4 strong inhibitors like itraconazole, grape fruit juice, rotonavir, indinavir etc CYP3A4 inducers concurrently used with Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) tablets causes decreasing the exposure of Erlotinib. CYP3A4inducers like, rifampin, rifampicin, carbamazepine, phenytoin etc Cigarette smoking is decreasing the AUC of Erlotinib.

OVERDOSAGE  of  Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg)

In case of gastrointestinal perforation or hepatic failure: Post pone or discontinue the Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) treatment. If diarrhea occurs during the therapy, substitute with loperamide for managing this condition. If dosage reduction is necessary then the dose of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) reduced into 50mg. Dose reduction is essential in the condition, while concomitant of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors like atazanavir, clarithromycin, indinavir, itraconazole, ketaconazole, voriconazole, grape fruit juice etc. Dosage elevation occurs in case of concurrent use of Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) with strong CYP3A4 inducers like rifampin, rifampicin, anti-convulsants etc. The dosage should be increased by 50mg.

Then the dose is suddenly reduced to 100mg or 150mg in discontinuation of smoking. Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) should not be administered with gastric regulators drug, like proton pump inhibitors or H2 receptor antagonist. In H2 receptors antagonist: Administer Zyceva 150mg (Erlotinib 150mg) at least 10 hours after or 2 hours before H2 receptors antagonist. In proton pump inhibitors: Do not use concurrently if possible.
