Side Effects & Adverse Reactions

Vinorelbine should be administered in carefully adjusted doses by or under the supervision of a physician experienced in the use of cancer chemotherapeutic agents.

Patients treated with vinorelbine should be frequently monitored for myelosuppression both during and after therapy. Granulocytopenia is dose-limiting. Granulocyte nadirs occur between 7 and 10 days after dosing with granulocyte count recovery usually within the following 7 to 14 days.

Complete blood counts with differentials should be performed and results reviewed prior to administering each dose of vinorelbine. Vinorelbine should not be administered to patients with granulocyte counts <1,000 cells/mm3.. Patients developing severe granulocytopenia should be monitored carefully for evidence of infection and/or fever. SeeDOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATIONfor recommended dose adjustments for granulocytopenia.

Acute shortness of breath and severe bronchospasm have been reported infrequently, following the administration of vinorelbine and other vinca alkaloids, most commonly when the vinca alkaloid was used in combination with mitomycin. These adverse events may require treatment with supplemental oxygen, bronchodilators, and/or corticosteroids, particularly when there is pre-existing pulmonary dysfunction.

报道了间质肺变化和急性呼吸窘迫综合征(ARDS)的病例,其中大部分是致命的,发生在接受单药乙烯宾替宾治疗的患者中。在葡萄链球菌给药后,这些症状发作的平均时间为1周(范围3至8天)。应立即评估其基线肺症状改变或呼吸困难,咳嗽,缺氧或其他症状的新患者。

Vinorelbine has been reported to cause severe constipation (e.g., Grade 3-4), paralytic ileus, intestinal obstruction, necrosis, and/or perforation. Some events have been fatal.

Pregnancy
Pregnancy Category D

Vinorelbine may cause fetal harm if administered to a pregnant woman. A single dose of vinorelbine has been shown to be embryo- and/or fetotoxic in mice and rabbits at doses of 9 mg/m2和5.5 mg/m2, respectively (one third and one sixth the human dose). At nonmaternotoxic doses, fetal weight was reduced and ossification was delayed. There are no studies in pregnant women. If vinorelbine is used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant while receiving this drug, the patient should be apprised of the potential hazard to the fetus. Women of childbearing potential should be advised to avoid becoming pregnant during therapy with vinorelbine.
