Gastrointestinal effects: the main titration bottleneck Nausea, diarrhea, constipation, and vomiting run around 40 to 44% overall, dose-dependent in how many people report them but mild-dominant in severity: severe events stay at or below about 1.7% in any category even at the top dose. In the obesity program the by-dose rates run nausea 25/29/28%, diarrhea 19/21/23%, and vomiting 8/11/13% at 5/10/15 mg. They concentrate during escalation and ease with time on a held dose
Additionally, the cycle recovery rate was 72.5% with the combination therapy, versus 42.3% with metformin alone
Occured as a remarkable breakthrough, this medication continues to be the focus of extensive research aimed at combating obesity
Rilotumumab has also been evaluated in a phase II trial aiming to study its safety and efficacy in combination with bevacizumab (Avastin, Genentech, South San Francisco, California, USA) for the treatment of recurrent malignant glioma, showing no significant improvement and low tolerability [95]
Do not continue escalating dose if diarrhea hasn't resolved from the previous step-up
