Per cosa si usa
Come agisce
Claudin 18.2-directed cytolytic antibody that depletes CLDN18.2-positive cells via antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC).
Dose abituale nell'adulto (sintesi del foglio illustrativo)
HER2-negative, CLDN18.2-positive gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma (with fluoropyrimidine- and platinum-containing chemotherapy): first dose 800 mg/m2 IV, then 600 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks or 400 mg/m2 IV every 2 weeks; continue until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity
Gravidanza e allattamento
- Gravidanza
- Unknown No human data. No embryo-fetal toxicity in mice at about 1.9 times human exposure, though it crossed the placenta. Labels: give only if the benefit outweighs the potential risk. It is given with fluoropyrimidine and platinum chemotherapy, which can harm the fetus.
- Allattamento
- Unsafe No milk data; as a large antibody little is expected in milk (LactMed). Because of possible serious reactions in the infant, US label: do not breastfeed during treatment and for 8 months after the last dose; EU label: breastfeeding not recommended during treatment.
Effetti indesiderati segnalati
- Nausea
- Vomiting
- Fatigue
- Decreased appetite
- Diarrhea

Chi deve prestare attenzione
- Hypersensitivity reactions including serious anaphylaxis and serious and fatal infusion-related reactions; monitor during and for at least 2 hours after infusion.

Informare il farmacista o il medico di gravidanza o allattamento, malattie renali o epatiche, allergie e di ogni altro farmaco o integratore assunto.
