Phosphate for Injection, USP can severely suppress bone marrow
function. When used at high
doses in dose-ranging studies in patients with acute leukemia,
Fludarabine Phosphate for Injection,
USP was associated with severe neurologic effects, including
blindness, coma, and death. This
severe central nervous system toxicity occurred in 36% of patients
treated with doses
approximately four times greater (96 mg/m /day for 5 to 7 days) than
the recommended dose.
Similar severe central nervous system toxicity, including coma,
seizures, agitation and confusion,
has been reported in patients treated at doses in the range of the
dose recommended for chronic
lymphocytic leukemia.
Instances of life-threatening and sometimes fatal autoimmune phenomena
such as hemolytic
anemia, autoimmune thrombocytopenia/thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP),
Evan's syndrome, and
acquired hemophilia have been reported to occur after one or more
cycles of treatment with
Fludarabine Phosphate for Injection, USP. Patients undergoing
treatment with Fludarabine
Phosphate for Injection, USP should be evaluated and closely monitored
for hemolysis.
In a clinical investigation using Fludarabine Phosphate for Injection,
USP in combination with
pentostatin (deoxycoformycin) for the treatment of refractory chronic
lymphocytic leukemia
(CLL), there was an unacceptably high incidence of fatal pulmonary
toxicity. Therefore, the use
of Fludarabine Phosphate for Injection, USP in combination with
pentostatin is not recommended.
