WHAT XGEVA IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
XGEVA contains denosumab, a protein (monoclonal antibody) that works
to slow down bone
destruction caused by cancer spreading to the bone (bone metastasis)
or by giant cell tumour of bone.
XGEVA is used in adults with advanced cancer to prevent serious
complications caused by bone
metastasis (e.g. fracture, pressure on the spinal cord or the need to
receive radiation therapy or
surgery).
XGEVA is also used to treat giant cell tumour of bone, which cannot be
treated by surgery or where
surgery is not the best option, in adults and adolescents whose bones
have stopped growing.
