Advanced phase CML or Ph+ ALL: Perform complete blood counts weekly for the first 2 months, and then monthly thereafter, or as clinically indicated.
Newly diagnosed chronic phase CML: Perform complete blood counts every 2 weeks for 12 weeks, then every 3 months thereafter, or as clinically indicated.
Newly diagnosed children with Ph+ ALL: Perform complete blood counts prior to start each block of chemotherapy and as clinically indicated. During consolidation of chemotherapy, perform complete blood counts every 2 days until recovery.
An echocardiography should be performed at initiation in every patient presenting with symptoms of cardiac disease and considered in patients with risk factors for cardiac or pulmonary disease. Patients who develop dyspnoea and fatigue after initiation of therapy should be evaluated for common aetiologies including pleural effusion, pulmonary oedema, anaemia, or lung infiltration. The dose of dasatinib should be reduced or interrupted during this evaluation. If no explanation is found, or if there is no improvement with dose reduction or interruption, the diagnosis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) should be considered.
When treating confirmed pleural effusion, diuretics and short courses of steroids are usually sufficient, but in severe cases thoracocentesis and oxygen therapy may be required. Patients aged 65 years and over are more likely to experience fluid retention and should be monitored closely.
Pregnancy and Lactation
Pregnancy
Dasatinib is contraindicated during pregnancy.
The manufacturer states that dasatinib should not be used in pregnancy unless the clinical condition of the woman requires treatment with dasatinib. Dasatinib is suspected to have harmful pharmacological effects on the foetus, as well as to cause congenital malformations. Animal studies have shown reproductive toxicity.
Lactation
Dasatinib is contraindicated during breastfeeding.
The manufacturer recommends that breastfeeding should be stopped during treatment with dasatinib. Dasatinib is suspected to be excreted in breast milk, and a risk to the breastfed infant cannot be excluded. LactMed suggests that due to the high plasma-protein binding of dasatinib, the amount of the drug in the milk is likely to be low. Despite this, LactMed contraindicate the use of the drug while breastfeeding, and for two weeks after the last dose.
