Under behandlingen skal patienterne overvåges for blodets indhold af blodplader (de blodlegemer, der medvirker til blodets størkning) og neutrofiler (de hvide blodlegemer, der bekæmper infektioner).
Patients must be monitored during treatment to check their blood levels of platelets (the components that help clotting) and neutrophils (the white blood cells that fight infection).
