  • After the first week of treatment, the patient's WBC count fell to 36×109/L with a significant decrease in blast cell count. (pensoft.net)
  • On day 138, the 11th dose of nivolumab was administered, and patient's platelet count was 53×109/L. However, immediately after the 11th dose, there was a sudden decrease in platelet count to 32×109/L. As the following 12th dose of nivolumab was served, the patient's platelet counts gradually dropped to 5×109/L. This result may reveal bone marrow damage, and it was possibly attributed to the nivolumab treatment. (pensoft.net)
