If You're Living with HR+/HER2– Metastatic Breast Cancer, More Time Is Possible

Verzenio was studied in a clinical trial of 669 women with HR+, HER2– metastatic breast cancer who progressed following prior hormone treatments. 446 patients were treated with Verzenio plus fulvestrant and 223 were treated with fulvestrant alone. In a clinical study 48.1% of women taking Verzenio + Fulvestrant saw their tumors shrink vs. 21.3% taking fulvestrant alone.

In a clinical study women taking Verzenio + fulvestrant lived for a median of 46.7 months vs 37.3 months on fulvestrant alone. In the same study, Verzenio + fulvestrant delayed disease progression for a median of 16.4 months vs 9.3 months with fulvestrant alone.

Undergoing treatment for metastatic breast cancer is one of the most difficult experiences a woman can take on. But you don't have to do it alone. With the links below, explore the information and resources designed to help support you and aid in your treatment.

Verzenio is the first and only treatment of its kind that can be taken everyday for the treatment of certain types of HR+, HER2– metastatic breast cancer - an everyday, twice daily treatment for a relentless disease.

INDICATIONS

Verzenio^® (ver-ZEN-ee-oh) is used to treat certain types of breast cancer known as HR+/HER2– (hormone receptor positive/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative) breast cancer.

It is a medicine you can take if:

You have node-positive early breast cancer that has a high risk of coming back as determined by your healthcare provider. Verzenio is given along with hormonal therapy to women and men.
Or, the cancer has spread to other parts of the body (metastasized). If you are postmenopausal, or male, then Verzenio is given with an aromatase inhibitor as initial endocrine-based therapy. If you are a female or male, and the cancer has gotten worse after hormonal therapy, then Verzenio is given with fulvestrant. If you are female or male and the cancer has gotten worse after both hormonal therapy and chemotherapy, then Verzenio is given by itself.

It is not known if Verzenio is safe and effective in children.
