      Drug Name Clozapine Inotuzumab ozogamicin
      Mechanism 1 Hematologic toxicity Hematologic toxicity
      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 Clozapine and Inotuzumab ozogamicin 
     Increased risk of prolong QT interval Click to Show/Hide Mechanism Graph

      Drug Name Clozapine Inotuzumab ozogamicin
      Mechanism 2 Prolong QT interval Prolong QT interval
      Key Mechanism Factor 2
Factor Name QT interval
Factor Description Long QT syndrome is a heart signaling disorder that can cause a fast, chaotic heartbeat (arrhythmia). Many people may not exhibit symptoms, and usually the condition is detected during routine medical tests. In others, the most common symptoms include: sudden fainting, palpitations, dizziness, seizures, sudden death.
      Mechanism Description
  • Increased risk of prolong QT interval by the combination of Clozapine and Inotuzumab ozogamicin 

Recommended Action
      Management Caution and close monitoring are advised when clozapine is used with other agents that have a well-known potential to cause agranulocytosis or otherwise suppress bone marrow function, such as antineoplastic, antimalarial, and antirheumatic agents. Caution is recommended if clozapine is used in combination with other drugs that can prolong the QT interval. Serum electrolytes, including potassium, magnesium and calcium, should be measured at baseline and periodically during treatment, and any abnormalities corrected prior to initiating clozapine. Clozapine treatment should be discontinued if the QTc interval exceeds 500 msec. Patients should be advised to seek prompt medical attention if they experience symptoms that could indicate the occurrence of torsade de pointes such as dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, palpitation, irregular heart rhythm, shortness of breath, or syncope.
