Ipilimumab (Yervoy)

One or two intact local summaries. No averaged regimen, patient-specific dose or automatic source preference.

Selecting here opens the current stored cards. The pinned link below records their fingerprints. Do not enter patient information in links or searches.

Share or print this source review

1 local source card selected. Local card fingerprints checked where supplied. This is not an original-document hash, source-currency guarantee or clinical approval. Record-level cautions below are the current library's cautions, not a frozen prior version.

Copy is optional; the link can be selected and copied manually. No patient data or dose decision is collected.

Clinical context remains essential

Independent clinical review is pending. Confirm indication, exact formulation/route, population, renal measure and units, kidney-function stability, dialysis prescription, interacting drugs, monitoring and source revision. An RX mirror and its original label are not independent corroboration. Missing disagreement notes do not certify agreement.

The current selected U.S. label and historical handbook differ in administration and available renal evidence. Immune-mediated nephritis requires toxicity management, not an automatic routine renal-dose reduction.

Documented differences and cautions on this drug

All record notes are retained here, including notes about sources not selected in this review.

Immune nephritis requires toxicity management, not a calculated dose reduction

The new RX section describes withholding or stopping treatment for immune-mediated creatinine toxicity. These CTCAE grades are not the baseline kidney-function categories used in pharmacokinetic assessment.

What to reconcile: Use the oncology toxicity-management protocol for treatment-emergent nephritis, including the combination-treatment rules. Do not reinterpret a baseline no-adjustment statement as permission to continue through significant immune toxicity.

Source-specific interpretation; independent clinician adjudication pending.

Historical handbook cross-check; not a current U.S. protocol

Historical renal / replacement-therapy guidance

At 20-50 mL/min the historical book retains the usual dose; 10-20 and <10 add caution. RRT removal is considered unlikely, with the lower renal band used. It notes lack of studies below 22 mL/min. This does not establish dialysis outcomes. Its older 90-minute infusion is not the selected current U.S. label administration, which is shown separately; no historical infusion instruction is promoted as current.

Document the clinical decision separately

This reference does not select a regimen. Complete the indication, measured/estimated renal function and trend, dialysis setting, source rationale, monitoring and reassessment plan in your institution's approved documentation system. Confirm the complete current source before adopting its regimen.
