Factor Name Bleeding
Factor Description Patients may be at risk for bleeding when the outcome of a disease or disease treatment confounds the standard mechanisms for maintaining hemostasis. Signs or symptoms of abnormal bleeding include: bleeding that takes a long time to stop (including nosebleeds, bleeding gums, bleeding from cuts and abrasions, and menstrual bleeding); severe unexplained bruising, or bruising that becomes larger; blood in the urine or stool, etc.
      Mechanism Description
  • Increased risk of bleeding by the combination of Tirofiban and Regorafenib 

Recommended Action
      Management Concomitant use of other medications that interfere with platelet function or coagulation should be considered cautiously in patients treated with regorafenib. Close clinical and laboratory observation for bleeding complications is recommended during therapy. The INR should be monitored more frequently during coadministration of warfarin.
