Special warnings and precautions for use –
Respiratory disorders
Cases of interstitial lung disease (ILD), including fatal cases, have
been reported, with
the majority of patients from the Japanese population.
Confounding or contributing factors, such as concomitant chemotherapy
known to be
associated with ILD, and pre-existing pulmonary diseases were frequent
in fatal cases.
Such patients should be closely monitored. In the event of symptoms
(such as
dyspnoea, cough, fever) or radiographic findings suggestive of ILD,
prompt diagnostic
investigation should occur.
If interstitial lung disease is diagnosed, cetuximab must be
discontinued and the
patient be treated appropriately.
