SKU GME167
Product Introduction
Erdafitinib 4mg is an oral targeted cancer medicine containing erdafitinib, an FGFR kinase inhibitor. It is used for adults with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial cancer that has susceptible FGFR genetic alterations and has progressed after prior systemic therapy, according to oncology protocols and local approval. Patients need tumor testing for FGFR alterations before treatment. Erdafitinib blocks FGFR signalling involved in cancer-cell growth, but it can also affect normal tissues.
How to use
Take Erdafitinib 4mg exactly as directed by the oncologist. Dose adjustments depend on phosphate level, side effects, eye findings, and response.
