Mode of Action

How Does It Work?

Axitinib is a targeted cancer medication that inhibits VEGF receptors (VEGFR-1, -2, and -3), which facilitate tumour growth and spread by promoting the formation of new blood vessels. By inhibiting these receptors, axitinib reduces cancer cell growth, decreases tumour size, and helps prevent cancer from spreading.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

  • Strong CYP3A4/5 inhibitors (e.g., ketoconazole, clarithromycin) significantly increase axitinib blood levels. Dose adjustment of axitinib may be necessary; avoid if possible.
  • Grapefruit may also increase axitinib blood levels.
  • Strong CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 inhibitors may potentially elevate axitinib blood levels; caution is advised.
