Despite decades of research, drug–drug interactions continue to undermine treatment outcomes. They affect more than 10% of patients in some populations and account for up to 30% of hospitalisations linked to adverse drug reactions.

In this webinar, Professor Tore Stage will use isoxazolyl penicillins as a case study to demonstrate an integrated framework for evaluating drug-drug interactions, showing how dicloxacillin and flucloxacillin act as metabolic inducers with clinically significant consequences.

To uncover these effects, the project combined complementary methods: hepatocyte cultures in 2D and 3D formats with qPCR and LC–MS/MS analysis, pharmacokinetic studies in healthy volunteers using a probe–drug cocktail design, and register-based studies to assess real-world outcomes. Together, these approaches form a transferable model for evaluating drug-drug interactions from bench to clinic.
