Summary of theoretical pharmacological usefulness of APP examples discussed.
| Overall rating | APP combination | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Fine | CLZ + CAR | Complementary PD and PK profiles—potential for improved efficacy as well as AE outcome + short- and long-acting agent combination (contributing to compliance) |
| CLZ + ARI | ||
| OLA + CAR | ||
| QUE + CAR | ||
| Conceivable, but possible issues | RIS + CAR HAL + CAR |
Some potential for improvement, but complex PD interaction—challenging to optimize doses for efficacy and AE benefits |
| CLZ + RIS OLA + RIS |
Doubtful efficacy improvement; increased AE burden | |
| Futile | CLZ + QUE | PK as well as PD profile overlap |
| ARI + CAR |
