Consumer:

Patients treated with temozolomide may experience myelosuppression, including prolonged pancytopenia, which may result in aplastic anemia, which in some cases has resulted in a fatal outcome. Prior to dosing, patients must have an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) greater than or equal to 1.5 × 109/L and a platelet count greater than or equal to 100 × 109/L. A complete blood count should be obtained on Day 22 (21 days after the first dose) or within 48 hours of that day, and weekly until the ANC is above 1.5 × 109/L and platelet count exceeds 100 × 109/L. Therapy with temozolomide should be administered cautiously in patients with compromised bone marrow reserve. Close clinical monitoring of hematopoietic function is recommended.
