      Key Mechanism Factor 1
Factor Name Myelosuppressive effects
Factor Description Myelosuppression, also known as bone marrow suppression, is a decrease in bone marrow activity that leads to a decrease in the production of blood cells. Some blood cell disorders include: erythrocytopenia (anemia), leukopenia (neutropenia), and thrombocytopenia (thrombocytopenia).
      Mechanism Description
  • Additive myelosuppressive effects by the combination of Alemtuzumab and Belantamab mafodotin 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution is advised if alemtuzumab must be used in patients who have recently received or are receiving treatment with other immunosuppressive or myelosuppressive drugs, and vice versa. The manufacturer recommends that single doses of alemtuzumab not exceed 30 mg and cumulative weekly doses not exceed 90 mg, since higher dosages are associated with an increased incidence of pancytopenia. Close clinical and laboratory monitoring for the development of severe hematologic adverse effects is recommended both during and after discontinuation of therapy.
