Jackfruit and Cablivi

Here is the interaction we found between these two, with the evidence behind it.

Moderate

ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS

Why this applies to Cablivi

Cablivi falls under ANTICOAGULANT/ANTIPLATELET DRUGS — the group Jackfruit interacts with.

Theoretically, jackfruit latex might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Jackfruit latex, which is the sap from jackfruit bark, contains chemicals that might increase the risk of bleeding. In vitro research shows that jackfruit latex contains a glycoprotein constituent that prolongs the activated partial thrombin time (aPTT) and reduces the activity of blood coagulation factors XIa and alpha-XIIa. Jackfruit latex also contains a protease constituent that has been shown to have fibrinolytic activity in vitro. Other parts of jackfruit, including the fruit and leaves, have not been shown to contain chemicals with fibrinolytic and anticoagulant activity.
Severity Moderate Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Interaction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.

Dr. Brian Staiger explains PharmD, Clinical Pharmacist

Here's the practical picture. Cablivi (caplacizumab) is an injected antibody that helps prevent dangerous clotting in aTTP, but because of how it works, bleeding and easy bruising are already known side effects. The concern on file is that jackfruit latex, the sticky sap from the bark, contains compounds that in lab tests slowed clotting and broke down clots. Stacking that on top of Cablivi could, in theory, add to your bleeding risk (think nosebleeds, gum bleeding, bruising, or heavier bleeding from cuts).

Two reassuring points: this is theoretical, based only on test-tube research, not human studies. And the everyday jackfruit fruit you eat does not appear to contain these clot-affecting chemicals, so enjoying the fruit is a different story from a concentrated latex product. Still, while you're on Cablivi, please run any jackfruit supplement past your pharmacist or doctor first.

Likelihood how strong the evidence is that the interaction actually happens in people
  • LikelyWell-controlled human studies have demonstrated the likely existence of this interaction.
  • ProbableInteraction has not been documented in well-controlled studies, however, the interaction has been demonstrated in some small human studies or in controlled animal studies in conjunction with multiple case reports.
  • PossibleInteraction has been documented in animal or in lab research, or the interaction has been documented in humans but is limited to case reports or conflicting clinical research exists.
  • UnlikelyInteraction has been demonstrated in animal or in lab research but has been shown not to occur in humans.
Evidence the quality of the studies behind the rating (graded A–D)
  • AHigh-quality meta-analysis (quantitative systematic review).
  • BCase-control study.
