WHAT ATRIANCE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Atriance contains nelarabine which belongs to a group of medicines
known as
_antineoplastic agents,_
used in chemotherapy to kill some types of cancer cells.
ATRIANCE IS USED TO TREAT PATIENTS WITH:
•
a type of leukaemia, called T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
Leukaemia causes an
abnormal increase in the number of white blood cells. The abnormal
high number of white
blood cells can appear in the blood and other parts of the body. The
type of leukaemia relates to
the type of white blood cell mainly involved. In this case, its cells
are called lymphoblasts.
•
a type of lymphoma, called T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma. This
lymphoma is caused by a
mass of lymphoblasts, a type of white blood cell.
If you have any questions about your illness, talk to your doctor
