Oral co-administration of elacridar and ritonavir enhances plasma levels of oral paclitaxel and docetaxel without affecting relative brain accumulation

BACKGROUND: The intestinal uptake of the taxanes paclitaxel and docetaxel is seriously hampered by drug efflux through P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and drug metabolism via cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A.
