Product Description
Trastuzumab is a recombinant IgG1 monoclonal antibody that works by selectively binding to the HER2 proteins on the surface of cancer cells. This binding action performs two main functions:
Inhibits cell growth:It blocks the signals that tell the cancer cells to grow and multiply rapidly.
Activates the immune system:It helps the body's immune system to recognize and destroy the cancerous cells.
This targeted approach minimizes the impact on healthy cells compared to traditional chemotherapy.
Key Uses
Vivitra 150 mg is indicated for the treatment of:
Early-stage breast cancer(following surgery, chemotherapy, and potentially radiotherapy in applicable cases).
Metastatic breast cancer(cancer that has spread to other parts of the body).
It can be used alone (monotherapy) or in combination with other anti-cancer treatments like chemotherapy or hormonal therapy, as determined by a healthcare professional.
