Everolimus is an inhibitor of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) used in both transplantation and cancer treatment (breast, renal and neuroendocrine). In transplantation, therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) is recommended due to the potential drug–drug interactions with chronic medications, which can affect everolimus pharmacokinetics. In cancer treatment, everolimus is used at higher doses than in transplantation and without a systematic drug monitoring.We present a case report of a 72-year-old woman with epilepsy history to whom everolimus 10 mg QD was prescribed as third line of treatment for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The potential drug interactions between everolimus and the patient's chronic medications, carbamazepine and phenytoin, are significant as both are known as strong inducers CYP3A4 metabolism, potentially leading to underexposure to everolimus.TDM of everolimus was recommended by the pharmacist. The literature suggests that a minimum plasma concentration (Cminss) of everolimus over 10 ng/ml is associated with better response to treatment and progression-free survival (PFS). The patient’s everolimus dose had to be increased until 10 mg BID, and regular monitoring of everolimus levels showed an increase in Cminss from 3.7 ng/ml to 10.8 ng/ml.This case highlights the importance of checking for potential drug interactions and monitoring everolimus levels in patients on chronic medication, especially those with several inducers or inhibitors of CYP3A4 metabolism. TDM can help to ensure that patients are treated with their optimal dose, which can improve the effectiveness of the treatment or minimize the risk of toxicities.
