WHAT LONSURF IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Lonsurf is a type of cancer chemotherapy which belongs to the group of
medicines called "cytostatic
antimetabolite medicines".
Lonsurf contains two different active substances: trifluridine and
tipiracil.
•
Trifluridine stops the growth of cancer cells.
•
Tipiracil stops the trifluridine from being broken down by the body,
helping trifluridine to work
longer.
Lonsurf is used to treat adults with colon or rectal cancer -
sometimes called ‘colorectal’ cancer and
stomach cancer (including cancer of the junction between the
oesophagus and the stomach).
•
It is used when the cancer has spread to other parts of the body
(metastases).
•
It is used when other treatments have not worked - or when other
treatments are not suitable for
you.
Lonsurf may be given in combination with bevacizumab. It is important
that you also read the package
leaflet of bevacizumab. If you have any questions about this medicine,
ask your doctor.
