Pharmacology
{
"pharmacology": {
"indication": "Gadobenate Dimeglumine is an MRI contrast agent used primarily for MR imaging of the liver. It can also be used for MRI of the heart, as well as and central nervous system in adults to visualize lesions with abnormal brain vascularity or abnormalities in the blood brain barrier, the brain, spine, or other associated tissues.",
"pharmacodynamics": "Gadobenate dimeglumine shares the pharmacokinetic properties of the ECF contrast agent gadopentetate dimeglumine; however, gadobenate differs in that is also selectively taken-up by hepatocytes and excreted via the bile (up to 5% of dose). The elimination half-life of gadobenate dimeglumine is approximately 1 hour. It is not metabolized.",
"mechanism_of_action": "Based on the behavior of protons when placed in a strong magnetic field, which is interpreted and transformed into images by magnetic resonance (MR) instruments. Paramagnetic agents have unpaired electrons that generate a magnetic field about 700 times larger than the proton's field, thus disturbing the proton's local magnetic field. When the local magnetic field around a proton is disturbed, its relaxation process is altered. MR images are based on proton density and proton relaxation dynamics. MR instruments can record 2 different relaxation processes, the T1 (spin-lattice or longitudinal relaxation time) and the T2 (spin-spin or transverse relaxation time). In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), visualization of normal and pathological brain tissue depends in part on variations in the radiofrequency signal intensity that occur with changes in proton density, alteration of the T1, and variation in the T2. When placed in a magnetic field, Gadobenate Dimeglumine shortens both the T1 and the T2 relaxation times in tissues where it accumulates. At clinical doses, Gadobenate Dimeglumine primarily affects the T1 relaxation time, thus producing an increase in signal intensity. Gadobenate Dimeglumine does not cross the intact blood-brain barrier; therefore, it does not accumulate in normal brain tissue or in central nervous system (CNS) lesions that have not caused an abnormal blood-brain barrier (e.g., cysts, mature post-operative scars).",
"absorption": "",
"toxicity": "Gadolinium-based radiocontrast agents like gadobenate dimeglumine are cytotoxic to renal cells. The toxic effects include apoptosis, cellular energy failure, disruption of calcium homeostasis, and disturbance of tubular cell polarity, and are thought to be linked to oxidative stress.",
"protein_binding": "Plasma protein binding is low, weak, and transient.",
"metabolism": "Not metabolized.",
"half_life": "1 hour",
"route_of_elimination": "Gadobenate ion is eliminated predominately via the kidneys, with 78% to 96% of an administered dose recovered in the urine.",
"volume_of_distribution": "",

This property describes the outer Condition as a modification to another condition. Often, this is used to tie a slightly more specific form of a condition to a more general form, which is more likely to have a MedDRA ID, ICD10 ID, etc. For instance, “acute allergic rhinitis” could be considered to be “allergic rhinitis” with the additional modifier “acute”.

Natural exposure to galactose-α-1,3-galactose and production of IgE antibodies against this sugar structure found in non-primate mammalian proteins is possible through tick bites and red meat allergy. Patients with previous tick bites and red meat allergies have a risk of cross-sensitivity to cetuximab.[A221805] Like other monoclonal antibodies administered via intravenous infusion, cetuximab is associated with infusion-related reactions. Studies report that the rate of infusion-related reactions (grade 1 to 4) can range from 12 to 27%.[A221795,A221800]",

"clinical_description": "Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS)/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) are reactions that occur following exposure to a culprit medication that elicit a hypersensitivity response. Initially, the reaction presents with flu-like symptoms (fever, sore throat, and fatigue), and can progress to include ocular involvement, ulcers, and mucous membrane lesions.[A189309,A201965] These ulcers and lesions are most common on the lips and mouth, but may also appear on the eyes, trunk, and genitals.[A189309,A201965] SJS and TEN skin reactions cause blistering, a positive Nikolsky’s sign, skin detachment, and erythema.[A204254] Histological examination reveals keratinocyte necrosis, full-thickness epidermal necrosis, and mild inflammation (often with lymphocytic infiltrate). The diagnosis for SJS/TEN requires a negative direct immunofluorescence test to rule out other conditions characterized by antibody deposition in the skin.[A204254] This cutaneous reaction is classified as SJS when less than 10% of the skin's surface area is involved; it is classified as TEN when greater than 30% of the skin's surface area is involved.[A201965,A189309] TEN generally presents within 1 to 60 days of initial drug exposure and within 5 half-lives of stopping the drug.[A201965] SJS/TEN severity is correlated with levels of both granulysin and IL-15.[A204254] ",

"simple_description": "Angioedema is swelling that can occur in one or more areas of the body and can sometimes lead to death if the swelling blocks the airway.",
"clinical_description": "Angioedema is a non-pitting edema that may affect more than one site on the body, sometimes leading to laryngeal edema, asphyxia, and sudden death.[A199167,A214502,A214505] Symptoms of laryngeal edema include stridor, dysphonia, and hoarseness.[A199167] Physiologically, angioedema is a result of increased vascular permeability caused by the release of bradykinin or histamine, which separates angioedema into separate etiologies: allergic histamine-mediated angioedema and bradykinin-mediated angioedema. Unlike bradykinin-mediated angioedema, the onset of allergic angioedema symptoms occurs within minutes of exposure to a drug or allergen, and may persist for 12-24 hours. IgE mediated histamine release is the primary cause of allergic angioedema, and it results in swelling of dermal tissue, subcutaneous tissue, and submucosal tissue. Edema can appear on the face, neck, and extremities.[A1991617] In addition to visible swelling, angioedema frequently presents with urticaria, bronchospasm, wheezing, and hypotension, with or without glossal/laryngeal edema. In some cases, angioedema related swelling of the gastrointestinal tract manifests as abdominal pain.[A199167]",
"management": "Monitor the patient for dyspnea, hoarseness, and other symptoms that suggest laryngeal edema. It is important to consider the subtype of angioedema (i.e. allergic or bradykinin-mediated) as they are managed differently. Distinctive clinical presentations may be useful for differentiating the angioedema subtypes. Allergic or histamine-mediated angioedema is frequently associated with rapid-onset hypotension, urticaria, bronchospasm, and abdominal pain. This type of angioedema is typically treated with antihistamines, steroids, and intramuscular epinephrine.[A199167,A214514] \r\nSupportive care measures and symptomatic treatment are the cornerstones of management and should be tailored to each individual’s clinical presentation.[A201914, A204257] When choosing an alternative agent for drug treatment, consider cross-sensitivity and avoid agents that are structurally related, if possible.[A201914, A204257] \r",

"simple_description": "An exanthem is a skin rash - sometimes referred to as a morbilliform rash - and occurs due to a variety of infections, health conditions, or after taking certain medications. It typically begins on the chest or abdomen and spreads rapidly to other parts of the body.",
"clinical_description": "Exanthema is a general term used to describe widespread skin eruptions caused by a variety of conditions, including infection, malignancy, drug hypersensitivity, or other conditions. Exanthemata are commonly associated with systemic symptoms, including fever, malaise, and headache. Loss of appetite, irritability, and abdominal pain are additional symptoms that occur along with the rash.[L14438] In the context of drug hypersensitivity, exanthemata often present as flat and raised (maculopapular) rashes appearing within days to weeks of exposure to a specific drug. The lesions initially appear on the trunk and rapidly progresse outwards toward the limbs in a symmetrical fashion. A low-grade fever is often present; mucous membranes are typically spared.[A189309,A214622] Pruritus and subcutaneous swelling and/or edema may also be apparent.[A214622,A214625] Histologically, the infiltration of activated lymphocytes and eosinophils in the papillary dermis and dermal-epidermal junction near the vasculature may be observed. Necrotic or abnormal keratinocytes can be seen in early exanthematous lesions.[T803, A214625]\n\nA morbilliform rash is a subtype of a maculopapular rash, although the two terms are often used interchangeably. It is commonly associated with antibiotic therapy and may occur in isolation, or in combination with other symptoms that may denote a more serious allergic condition.[L14477] The histology for morbilliform rash is nonspecific and unlikely to confirm a diagnosis. Clinical correlation is advised if a histologic examination is performed.[A214625] The morbilliform rash commonly presents as flat and raised lesions initially appearing on the trunk with subsequent progression to the limbs. It is predominantly a T-cell mediated delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction that occurs within days to weeks after exposure to the offending drug.[A214655,A214658,L14477]\n",
"management": "Discontinuing the offending agent normally leads to the rapid resolution of exthameta, if caused by drug-hypersensitivity. The use of emollients and topical steroid creams may be beneficial.[A214625,L14477] Supportive care measures and symptomatic treatment are the cornerstones of management and should be tailored to each individual’s clinical presentation. When choosing an alternative agent, consider cross-sensitivity and avoid agents that are structurally related if possible.[A201914,A204257]",

"summary": "As a Monoclonal Antibodies From The Murine (Sp2/0) Cell Line, Cetuximab is known to be cross-sensitive with Monoclonal Antibodies From The Murine (Sp2/0) Cell Line",
"description": "There is limited clinical information on cross-sensitivity amongst monoclonal antibodies (mABs), although several factors are mentioned in the literature that may result in a cross-sensitivity reaction. Drug-related risk factors for hypersensitivity reactions include the degree of humanization, the glycosylation pattern, the cell line of origin from which it was obtained, the dosing interval, and excipients with allergenic potential.[A36676] Cross-sensitivity may occur from two mABs if they share a common structural feature, such as specific glycosylation patterns of the Fc portion of the molecule, that causes a hypersensitivity reaction.[A216098] \r\n\r\nThe drug’s cell line of origin can contribute to specific structural differences or glycosylation patterns because different cell lines produce cell-derived enzymes that give rise to varying glycosylation patterns.[A36676] If the hypersensitivity reaction against a given mAB involves the recognition of a structural feature, such as specific glycosylation of the Fc portion of the mAB, then cross-sensitivity may occur with other mABs if they share that structural feature.[A216098] mABs that are derived from the SP2/O murine cell line have a distinct glycosylation pattern due to the presence of galactose-α1,3-galactose (α-gal), which is an enzyme found in nonhuman sources, such as ticks. As hypersensitivity to α-gal has been demonstrated in the literature, cross-sensitivity among drugs derived from this cell line may be theoretically possible. During clinical trials, patients who developed hypersensitivity reactions to cetuximab had pre-existing IgE antibodies against α-gal.[A216098, A216298] It is not known whether the target specificity of mABs is of significance in determining cross-sensitivity: it is unclear whether two mABs binding to the same antigen leads to similar hypersensitivity reactions to a cross-sensitivity reaction.[A216098]\r\n",

The term cross-sensitivity refers to an increased likelihood of a patient experiencing an allergic reaction to a given drug or drug allergy category based on a pre-existing allergy to a separate drug or category. Each cross-sensitivity entry provides information on known associations between drugs/categories that result in an increased risk of allergic reactions.
Each cross-sensitivity describes one such cross-sensitivity, and may include the following properties:
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
summary | string | An overview of the cross-sensitivity information for the drug. It will contain whether or not this is a category-based cross-sensitivity. |
description | string | More details on the cross-sensitivity such as supporting evidence, underlying mechanisms, risks, and management guidelines, if known. |
incidence | string | Text describing the incidence of the cross-sensitivity. Note that this is not a structured field at this point. Some values may be percentages. Others may be just a general description or indication that it’s a theoretical cross-sensitivity only. |
evidence_type | string array | A list of evidence types (such as review or case reports) used to gather the cross-sensitivity information for this drug. See possible values below. |
cross_sensitive_drugs | Drug array or string array | Drugs considered cross-sensitive. |
references | references | References for cross-sensitivity information. |
Evidence Types
Possible values for evidence_type include:
Type | Description |
---|---|

Structured drug-drug interactions detailing drugs that, when administered concomitantly with the drug of interest, will affect its activity or result in adverse effects. These interactions may be synergistic or antagonistic depending on the physiological effects and mechanism of action of each drug.
The structured_drug_interactions
field is limited to interactions between approved drugs.
For non-approved drugs, such as experimental or investigational drugs, this field will be
empty. To supplement the structured_drug_interactions
field, interactions with non-approved
drugs are provided in the experimental_structured_drug_interactions
field. These take the
exact same format. The two fields provided mutually-exclusive lists of interactions. The
union of the two lists provides the complete set of interactions for this drug.
Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
severity | string | The severity of this drug interaction; either minor , moderate , or major . |
summary | string | A short summary of the interaction and its effects. |
action | string | The resulting effect of this interaction on the pharmacological activity of the drug. |
subject_dosage | string | Dosage form or dosage quantitiy that will be mainly producing the interaction. |
affected_dosage | string | Dosage form or dosage quantitiy that will be mainly affected by the interaction. |
extended_description | string | Extended descrciption of the mechanism of action and particular properties of the drug interaction. |
management | string | Clinical recommendation when the concomitant administration of the drugs is considered. |
evidence_level | integer | Level of evidence for the structured interaction. An evidence level of 1 indicates that the interaction is mentioned in the drug monograph (FDA, Health Canada, EMA, etc) and has been confirmed in clinical studies (cohort, case-control, case study etc.) An evidence level of 2 indicates that the interaction has been confirmed in at least 1 cohort, case-control, or case study and may or may not be mentioned in a drug monograph. |
conditions | string | Patient conditions that will produce a more significant effect on the interaction. |
subject_drug | object | The drug which creates the interaction. |
affected_drug | object | The drug which is affected by the interaction. |
subject_category | object | For interactions based on a drug-category or category-category interaction, the category that affected-drug belongs to which is the basis for this interaction. |
affected_category | object | For interactions based on a drug-category or category-category interaction, the category that affected-drug belongs to which is the basis for this interaction. |
One of subject_drug
or affected_drug
will be the drug which embeds these
interactions.
The optional subject_category
and affected_category
properties are included
when the interaction is created on the basis of a category-category or drug-category
interaction.
Severity
Interaction severity is represented with a string value. These values and their interpretation are listed below:
Severity | Value | Risk Level | Description |
---|---|---|---|
Minor | minor | observe and adjust | These medications may interact in a clinically significant manner, however, the benefits of concomitant use usually outweigh any risks. A monitoring plan should be put in place and dosage adjustments may be needed. |
Moderate | moderate | adjustment should be considered | The benefits of continuing concomitant therapy should be evaluated on an individual basis. Actions such as aggressive observation, dosage changes, or alternative medications may need to be taken. |
Major | major | combination should be avoided | Concomitant therapy with this combination may cause more harm than benefit and alternative medications or means of therapy should be employed. |
Evidence Level
Interaction evidence level is represented with an integer value. These values and their interpretations are listed below.
Evidence Level | Definition |
---|---|
1 | Mentioned in the the drug monograph (FDA, Health Canada, EMA, etc) and has been confirmed in clinical studies (cohort, case-control, case study etc.) |
2 | Has been confirmed in at least 1 cohort, case-control, or case study and may or not be mentioned in a drug monograph. |
