WHAT GIOTRIF IS USED
FOR
Giotrif contains the active substance
afatinib (as afatinib dimaleate).
Giotrif belongs to a group of
medicines called antineoplastic (or
anti-cancer) agents.
It works by blocking the activity of a
group of proteins from the ErbB
family, which includes a protein
called Epidermal Growth Factor
Receptor (EGFR). These proteins are
known to be involved in the growth
and spread of cancer cells. By
blocking the activity of these proteins
Giotrif stops the cancer cells from
growing and multiplying.
Giotrif is used to treat adult patients
with a type of lung cancer called
non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC):
•
of non-squamous type identified
with a change (mutation) in the
gene for EGFR. Giotrif can be
prescribed to you as your first
treatment or if your cancer has
progressed after receiving
chemotherapy
•
of squamous type if your cancer
has progressed after receiving
chemotherapy.
ASK YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT WHY GIOTRIF HAS
BEEN PRESCRIBED FOR YOU.
Your doctor may have prescribed
Giotrif for another reason.
This medicine is available only with
a doctor's prescription.
