Product Introduction
Nilotinib 150mg is a BCR-ABL tyrosine-kinase inhibitor used for Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia. Molecular response and previous treatment help determine the regimen.
How to use
Take the scheduled doses approximately 12 hours apart. Have no food for at least 2 hours before and 1 hour after each dose. Swallow the capsules with water and avoid grapefruit.
How it works
Nilotinib inhibits BCR-ABL kinase activity, reducing the abnormal growth signal responsible for Ph-positive leukaemia-cell proliferation.
Side effects
Rash, itching, nausea, headache and low blood counts may occur. QT prolongation, arterial vascular events and pancreatitis are important risks.
Important information
ECG, potassium, magnesium, glucose and lipid monitoring may be needed. Low electrolytes and medicines that prolong QT can increase arrhythmia risk.
Uses
- Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukaemia.
Benefits
Can reduce the molecular leukaemia burden and help maintain long-term disease control.
Why is the food restriction stricter than for some other cancer tablets?
Food can markedly increase nilotinib exposure and contribute to cardiac toxicity.
Why is an ECG repeated after treatment starts?
It detects changes in cardiac repolarisation that may not cause early symptoms.
Does a deep molecular response mean I can stop on my own?
No. Treatment-free remission is considered only with defined eligibility and intensive molecular follow-up.
What should I do about a missed dose?
Skip it and take the next scheduled dose at the usual time. Do not take two doses together.
Philadelphia chromosome: a chromosome change producing BCR-ABL. QT interval: an ECG measure of cardiac electrical recovery.
