Lung Cancer
Imfinzi is used to treat a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer. It is used when:
- Your cancer has grown within your lung and cannot be removed by surgery and,
- Your cancer has responded or stabilized after treatment with chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
Imfinzi is used to treat adults with a type of lung cancer called extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC). It is used when:
- Your cancer has spread within your lungs (or to other parts of the body) and,
- You have not previously been treated.
Imfinzi will be given in combination with chemotherapy for SCLC. It is important that you also read the package insert for the specific chemotherapy you may be receiving. If you have any questions about these medicines, ask your doctor.
Biliary Tract Cancer
Imfinzi is used to treat adults with a type of cancer called biliary tract cancer (BTC), including cancer of the bile ducts (cholangiocarcinoma) and gallbladder. It is used when your BTC has spread within these regions or to other parts of the body.
Imfinzi will be given in combination with chemotherapy for BTC. It is important that you also read the package insert for the specific chemotherapy you may be receiving. If you have any questions about these medicines, ask your doctor.
Liver Cancer
Imfinzi alone or in combination with tremelimumab is used to treat a type of liver cancer, called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), when your liver cancer:
- cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable) and requires medication,
- may have spread within your liver or to other parts of the body, and
- you have not received other medicines to treat your liver cancer.
If you are given Imfinzi in combination with IMJUDO (tremelimumab), it is important that you also read the Patient Medication Information for both medications.
