Drug interaction study reveals how carbamazepine alters zongertinib levels
NCT ID NCT06028464
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This completed Phase 1 trial in 16 healthy men tested how taking carbamazepine (a strong enzyme inducer) changes the amount of zongertinib in the blood. Participants received a single dose of zongertinib alone, then later took increasing doses of carbamazepine for 18 days followed by another zongertinib dose. The study measured drug levels to see if carbamazepine speeds up zongertinib breakdown, which could affect dosing in future patients.
