Frequency of Clinically Relevant Drug-Drug Interactions Between Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors and Proton Pump Inhibitors in Patients With Cancer Using Real-World Data.
Observational study in Basic & clinical pharmacology & toxicology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundProton pump inhibitors (PPIs) raise stomach pH, leading to reduced bioavailability of many tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), thereby affecting treatment outcomes. To what extent this interaction occurs in clinical practice remains underexplored.
objectiveTo determine the frequency of clinically relevant interactions between TKIs and PPIs in clinical practice and the duration of concomitant prescription.
methodsA retrospective observational study was performed using the IADB.nl prescription database. Clinically relevant drug-drug interactions between TKIs and PPIs were assessed using four drug compendia (i.e., KNMP Kennisbank, Health Base, Lexidrug and Merative Micromedex). Patients who were prescribed a TKI and PPI with a clinically relevant DDI concomitantly, between 1 January 2013 and 31 December 2024, were included. Concomitant prescription was defined as ≥ 7 days of simultaneous prescription.
findingsIn total, 60 TKIs were registered in the Netherlands; 19 TKIs had clinically relevant interactions reported by at least one compendium. Overall, 393 of 1759 (22.3%) TKI users had a clinically relevant interaction. The median duration of concomitant prescription was 43 days (IQR = 81), with 91.1% of episodes lasting at least 30 days.
conclusionPPIs and TKIs are frequently prescribed concomitantly in clinical practice. Prescribers should be more cautious when co-prescribing PPIs with TKIs and adapt the dosing regimens when appropriate.
