Sintesi

Cosa significa questa interazione in parole semplici

Efgartigimod / hyaluronidase sc and Nivolumab can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Perché avviene

Efgartigimod blocks FcRn-mediated IgG recycling, which may accelerate catabolism of IgG-based nivolumab.
