SKU GME1324Oncology Care
Product Introduction
Everolimus 5mg is an mTOR-inhibitor anticancer medicine for selected advanced tumours, including hormone-receptor-positive breast cancer, renal-cell cancer and certain neuroendocrine tumours. The 5mg and 10mg oncology tablets differ from lower-strength transplant regimens.
How to use
Swallow whole with water at a consistent daily time. Take consistently with food or consistently without food. Do not crush. Avoid grapefruit and Seville oranges.
How it works
Everolimus inhibits mTORC1 signalling, reducing cell growth, protein synthesis and angiogenesis in susceptible tumours.
Side effects
Mouth ulcers, rash, fatigue, diarrhoea, infections, high glucose or lipids and low blood counts can occur. New cough or breathlessness may indicate non-infectious pneumonitis.
Important information
Blood counts, kidney function, glucose and lipids need monitoring. CYP3A and P-glycoprotein interactions can alter exposure. Live vaccines and treatment around surgery require planning.
Uses
- Selected advanced breast, renal-cell and neuroendocrine tumours and other disease-specific oncology indications.
Benefits
Suppressing an important growth pathway can delay tumour progression in an appropriate treatment setting.
Can these tablets be substituted into a transplant regimen?
No. Transplant treatment uses a different dose, monitoring strategy and often a different product presentation.
Why may a mouth rinse be supplied?
A steroid mouthwash can reduce treatment-related stomatitis when included in the oncology plan.
Does a new dry cough always mean infection?
No. Everolimus can cause non-infectious lung inflammation, so a new cough or breathlessness needs assessment.
Are all pancreatic cancers treated with it?
No. Its role includes selected neuroendocrine tumours, which differ from pancreatic adenocarcinoma.
