Cerliponase alfa Disease Interactions
There are 2 disease interactions with cerliponase alfa.
Cerliponase alfa (applies to cerliponase alfa) hydrocephalus
Major Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility. Applicable conditions: CNS Disorder
The use of cerliponase alfa is contraindicated in patients with ventriculoperitoneal shunts and those patients with acute intraventricular access device-related complications such as leakage, device failure, or device-related infection.
Cerliponase alfa (applies to cerliponase alfa) arrhythmias
Moderate Potential Hazard, Moderate plausibility.
The use of cerliponase alfa may cause cardiovascular complications. It is recommended to monitor vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate) before infusion starts, periodically during infusion, and post-infusion. Perform electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring during infusion in patients with a history of conduction abnormalities. In patients without cardiac abnormalities, regular 12-lead ECG evaluations should be performed every 6 months.
