Please use this cytokine release syndrome (CRS) grading* tool as a suggested guide to identifying CRS based on clinical presentation. Evaluate for and treat other causes of fever, hypoxia, and hypotension, such as infections/sepsis. IRRs may be clinically indistinguishable from manifestations of CRS. If CRS or other infusion-related reaction is suspected, recommendations for management and dosing modification are provided as well.
For CRS Grading and Management recommendations, please refer to the US Prescribing Information (Section 2.4) or the Dose Modifications for CRS table(s) on this site.
The information provided is not a substitute for clinical judgment. Neither Genentech, nor any other party involved in preparation or publication of this site, shall be liable to you or others for any decisions made or actions taken by you or others in reliance on this information.

*Based on ASTCT 2019 grading for CRS.
†If CRS is refractory to management, consider other causes including hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis.
‡Premedication may mask fever; therefore, if clinical presentation is consistent with CRS, follow these management guidelines.
§Refer to the Dose Delay table(s) for information on restarting LUNSUMIO [IV] or LUNSUMIO VELO after dose delays.
‖Refer to the Recommended Premedications table(s) for additional information on premedication.
¶Low-flow oxygen defined as oxygen delivered at <6 L/minute; high-flow oxygen defined as oxygen delivered at ≥6 L/minute.
ASTCT=American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy; BiPAP=bilevel positive airway pressure; CPAP=continuous positive airway pressure; CRS=cytokine release syndrome; IRR=infusion-related reaction; IV=intravenous.
