Section 1: Dose adjustments for mercaptOPURine

Supportive Care Factors

Factor Value
Antiviral prophylaxis for herpes virus: Routine antiviral prophylaxis recommended
Constipation risk: Variable
Diarrhoea risk: Variable
Emetogenicity: Minimal to low
Gastroprotection: Gastroprotection is recommended
Pneumocystis jirovecii pneumonia (PJP) prophylaxis: Routine antibiotic prophylaxis recommended

Antiviral prophylaxis for hepatitis B virus: Guidance is limited to high-risk anti-cancer medicines. Clinicians will need to assess individual patient risk for other anti-cancer medicines.


Constipation/Diarrhoea risk: daSATinib may cause diarrhoea and vinCRISTine may cause constipation. Monitor gastrointestinal symptoms.


Gastroprotection:

  • Gastroprotective agents such as proton pump inhibitors and H2 receptor antagonists are not recommended to be used with daSATinib because they may reduce exposure to daSATinib by increasing gastric pH. Consider using an antacid as an alternative.
  • Gastroprotective agents are only intended for short term use while patient is receiving corticosteroid treatment doses.
