Camizestrant pharmacokinetics were observed at steady state in patients with breast cancer at the approved recommended dosage and are presented as mean (CV%), unless otherwise specified.
Camizestrant total systemic exposure (AUC) is 1,115 ng·h/mL (40.8%) and maximum concentration (Cmax) is 73.6 ng/mL (40.2%). Camizestrant steady-state AUC and Cmax increase by approximately 2-fold when administered in combination with ribociclib (see Drug Interaction Studies). Camizestrant AUC and Cmax increase in a greater than dose proportional manner over the dosage range of 25 mg to 450 mg (0.3 to 6 times the approved recommended dosage) once daily. Camizestrant steady state is reached by Day 5. Accumulation was observed after multiple dosing with an accumulation ratio of 1.4 for Cmax and 1.8 for AUC.
Absorption
Camizestrant absolute oral bioavailability is 43%. Camizestrant median time to maximum concentration (Tmax) is 3 to 4 hours.
Effect of Food
No clinically significant differences in camizestrant pharmacokinetics were observed following administration of a high-fat meal (951 calories, 58% fat) in healthy postmenopausal women.
Distribution
Camizestrant apparent volume of distribution is 1,888 L (29.3%).
Camizestrant plasma protein binding is 0.75 and is not concentration-dependent in vitro. The blood-to-plasma concentration ratio is 0.99.
Elimination
Camizestrant terminal half-life is approximately 23 hours with an apparent clearance of 69 L/h (40.6%).
Metabolism
Camizestrant is primarily metabolized by CYP3A and UGT1A4.
Excretion
Following a single oral 75 mg dose of radiolabeled camizestrant to healthy subjects, 65% of the total radioactivity was recovered in feces (14.5% unchanged) and 17% in urine (4.8% unchanged).
Specific Populations
No clinically significant differences in the pharmacokinetics of camizestrant were observed based on age (29 – 89 years), body weight (34 – 150 kg), race (86% White, 9% Asian, and 1.3% Black), and creatinine clearance (CLcr) 30 mL/min to < 90 mL/min (calculated using the modified Cockcroft-Gault equation). The effect of CLcr 15 to < 30 mL/min and end-stage renal disease (CLcr < 15 mL/min) on camizestrant pharmacokinetics is unknown.
Patients with Hepatic Impairment
Camizestrant Cmax and AUC increased in patients with moderate (Child-Pugh B) and severe (Child-Pugh C) hepatic impairment compared to patients with normal hepatic function following a single 75 mg dose. Camizestrant steady state Cmax and AUC are predicted to increase in patients with mild (Child-Pugh A), moderate (Child-Pugh B), and severe (Child-Pugh C) hepatic impairment compared to patients with normal hepatic function. Table 7 summarizes observed systemic exposure of camizestrant in patients with hepatic impairment following a single dose and predicted systemic exposures at steady-state.

When camizestrant 75 mg once daily is coadministered with ribociclib 400 mg once daily in patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C), compared to patients with normal hepatic function, the steady state camizestrant AUC was predicted to increase approximately 6-fold.
Drug Interaction Studies
Clinical Studies and Model-Informed Approaches
Strong CYP3A Inhibitors: Camizestrant Cmax increased 1.4-fold and AUC 1.9-fold following concomitant administration of itraconazole (strong CYP3A inhibitor) 200 mg twice daily on day 1 followed by 200 mg once daily for 5 days.
Camizestrant Cmax and AUC increased approximately 2-fold when administered concomitantly with ribociclib (strong CYP3A inhibitor) 400 or 600 mg once daily.
Strong CYP3A Inducers: Camizestrant Cmax decreased to 41% and AUC decreased to 30% following concomitant administration of carbamazepine (strong CYP3A inducer) 100 mg once daily for 3 days, followed by 200 mg once daily for 3 days and then 300 mg once daily for 6 days.
Camizestrant Cmax is predicted to decrease to 38% and AUC to 30% following concomitant administration of rifampicin (strong CYP3A inducer) 600 mg once daily for 17 days.
Moderate CYP3A Inducers: Camizestrant Cmax is predicted to decrease to 58% and AUC to 43% following concomitant administration of phenobarbital (moderate CYP3A inducer) 100 mg once daily for 17 days. Phenobarbital or efavirenz (moderate CYP3A inducer) is predicted to have minimal effects on camizestrant AUC and Cmax when camizestrant is given in combination with 400 mg or 600 mg ribociclib.
CYP2C9 Substrates: Warfarin (sensitive CYP2C9 substrate) Cmax is predicted to increase 1.1-fold and AUC 13-fold following concomitant administration with camizestrant.
Siponimod (moderately sensitive CYP2C9 substrate) Cmax is predicted to increase 1.1-fold and AUC 5.3-fold following concomitant administration with camizestrant.
CYP2C19 Substrates: Omeprazole (sensitive CYP2C19 substrate) Cmax is predicted to increase 3.3-fold and AUC 8.5-fold and lansoprazole (moderately sensitive CYP2C19 substrate) Cmax is predicted to increase 1.5-fold and AUC 5.7-fold following concomitant administration with camizestrant.
CYP3A Substrates: Midazolam (sensitive CYP3A substrate) Cmax increased 1.5-fold and AUC 2-fold following concomitant administration with camizestrant.
In Vitro Studies
CYP450 Enzymes: Camizestrant is a reversible inhibitor of CYP2B6 and CYP2D6, but does not inhibit CYP1A2, CYP2A6, CYP2C8, and CYP2E1. Camizestrant can induce CYP1A2 and CYP2B6.
UGT Enzymes: Camizestrant inhibits UGT1A1 and UGT2B7.
Transporter Systems: Camizestrant is a substrate of P-gp, but not a substrate of BCRP, OATP1B1, or OATP1B3.
Camizestrant can inhibit P-gp, BCRP and OATP1B1. Camizestrant does not inhibit OATP1B3, OCT2, OAT1, OAT3, MATE1, and MATE2K.
