warnings and cautions
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Hemorrhage : CYRAMZA increases the risk of hemorrhage and gastrointestinal hemorrhage, including severe and fatal events. Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA in patients who experience severe bleeding. ( 5.1 ) Gastrointestinal Perforations : CYRAMZA increases the risk of gastrointestinal perforation, which can be fatal. Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA in patients who experience a gastrointestinal perforation. ( 5.2 ) Impaired Wound Healing : Withhold CYRAMZA for 28 days prior to elective surgery. Do not administer CYRAMZA for at least 2 weeks following a major surgical procedure and until adequate wound healing. The safety of resumption of CYRAMZA after resolution of wound healing complications has not been established. ( 5.3 ) Arterial Thromboembolic Events (ATEs) : Serious and sometimes fatal ATEs can occur with CYRAMZA. Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA in patients who experience an ATE. ( 5.4 ) Hypertension : Monitor blood pressure and treat hypertension. Withhold CYRAMZA for severe hypertension. Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA for hypertension that cannot be controlled with antihypertensive therapy and for hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy. ( 5.5 ) Infusion-Related Reactions (IRR) : Monitor for signs and symptoms during infusion. Reduce the infusion rate for Grade 1 or 2 IRR and permanently discontinue for Grade 3 or 4 IRR. ( 5.6 ) Worsening of Pre-existing Hepatic Impairment : New onset or worsening encephalopathy, ascites or hepatorenal syndrome can occur in patients with Child-Pugh B or C cirrhosis. ( 5.7 ) Posterior Reversible Encephalopathy Syndrome : Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA. ( 5.8 ) Proteinuria Including Nephrotic Syndrome : Monitor for proteinuria. Withhold CYRAMZA for urine protein levels greater than or equal to 2 g per 24 hours. Permanently discontinue CYRAMZA for urine protein levels greater than 3 g per 24 hours or nephrotic syndrome. ( 5.9 ) Thyroid Dysfunction : Monitor thyroid function during treatment. ( 5.10 ) Embryo-Fetal Toxicity : Can cause fetal harm. Advise females of reproductive potential of the potential risk to a fetus and to use effective contraception. ( 5.11 , 8.1 , 8.3 ) 5.1 Hemorrhage CYRAMZA increased the risk of hemorrhage and gastrointestinal hemorrhage, including Grade ≥3 hemorrhagic events. Across six clinical studies in 2137 patients with various cancers treated with C...
