Docegen 80 Docetaxel Sorafenib Tosylate
ModerateSorafenib (Sofen) can raise the amount in the body of medicines that are cleared by the UGT1A1 and UGT1A9 enzymes, so their exposure may go up when taken together with it. This was seen with Docetaxel. In the study, Docetaxel (75 or 100 mg/m2, given every 21 days) was combined with Sofen (200 or 400 mg twice daily). Sofen was paused for 3 days around each Docetaxel dose. Even so, Docetaxel AUC (the total amount of medicine in the blood over time) rose by 36-80%. Its Cmax (the peak level in the blood) rose by 16-32%.
These medicines are often taken together with some care. Your doctor may change a dose, space them apart or check on you more often. Make sure your doctor and pharmacist know you take both.
