General information
Class/mechanism: Bi-specific T-cell engager (BiTE) antibody that targets CD19 (expressed on B cells) and CD3 (expressed on T cells).[1][2][3]
Route: IV
Extravasation: no information
- Use of Blinatumomab (Blincyto) requires participation in the Blincyto Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS) program.
For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
