Important: Patients who develop an allergic reaction to Atigotatug should seek immediate medical attention and inform all future healthcare providers of the allergy.
DRUG INTERACTIONS-
Atigotatug may interact with certain medicines, protocols, vaccines, clinical conditions, or procedures. Caution is needed with:
- Other anticancer therapies can increase overlapping toxicities such as myelosuppression or liver injury.
- Immune-modulating drugs may alter antitumor immune effects.
- Live vaccines are generally avoided during significant immune-altering cancer therapy.
- Clinical-trial protocols should guide all concomitant medicines.
Patients should inform healthcare providers about all prescription medicines, over-the-counter medicines, herbal products, vaccines, and supplements they are using.
PREAUTIONS–
- Use only under oncology supervision with monitoring for infusion reactions.
- Review prior antibody reactions and autoimmune history.
- Monitor blood counts, liver tests, and overall performance status as clinically indicated.
