Example
Example
Across clinical studies (PALOMA-1, PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3), 1.4% of IBRANCE-treated patients had ILD/Pneumonitis of any grade. Monitor patients for pulmonary symptoms indicative of ILD/pneumonitis (e.g. hypoxia, cough, dyspnoea). In patients who have new of worsening respiratory symptoms and are suspected to have developed ILD/pneumonitis, interrupt IBRANCE immediately and evaluate the patient. Permanently discontinue IBRANCE in patients with severe ILD or pneumonitis.1
Any grade VTEs were reported in 3.2% of patients treated with IBRANCE across clinical studies (PALOMA-1, PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3). Patients should be monitored for signs and symptoms of DVT and PE, and treated as medically appropriate.1
Across clinical studies (PALOMA-1, PALOMA-2 and PALOMA-3), 1.4% of IBRANCE-treated patients experienced febrile neutropenia of any grade. In cases of febrile neutropenia, IBRANCE should be withheld until recovery of neutropenia to Grade <2 and then resumed at the next lower dose at the beginning of the following cycle.1
The overall safety profile of IBRANCE is based on pooled data from 872 patients who received palbociclib in combination with endocrine therapy (N=527 in combination with letrozole and N=345 in combination with fulvestrant) in randomised clinical studies in HR+ HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
