Description
Cabozantinib 20mg & 40mg Tablets is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that is used in the treatment of several types of cancer, including renal cell carcinoma (RCC), hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), and medullary thyroid cancer (MTC). It works by targeting specific proteins involved in tumor growth, angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), and metastasis (spread of cancer cells). Here are some of the key uses of cabozantinib:
- Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC): Cabozantinib tablets are approved for the treatment of advanced RCC, the most common type of kidney cancer in adults. It is indicated for patients who have received prior anti-angiogenic therapy and have experienced disease progression. Cabozantinib helps inhibit the activity of proteins such as MET, VEGFR, and AXL, which are involved in tumor growth and angiogenesis, leading to a reduction in tumor size and progression-free survival.
- Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC): The medicine is also approved for the treatment of advanced HCC, the most common type of liver cancer. It is indicated for patients who have previously been treated with sorafenib, another TKI and have experienced disease progression. Cabozantinib inhibits the activity of several tyrosine kinases, including MET, VEGFR, and RET, which are implicated in HCC progression and angiogenesis.
- Medullary Thyroid Cancer (MTC): This therapeutic drug is approved for the treatment of metastatic MTC, a rare type of thyroid cancer that originates in the parafollicular cells of the thyroid gland. It is indicated for patients who have progressive, unresectable, locally advanced, or metastatic disease. Cabozantinib inhibits the activity of RET, a protein that is mutated and overactive in MTC, leading to tumor regression and improved progression-free survival.
Overall, cabozantinib represents a valuable treatment option for patients with advanced RCC, HCC, and MTC, offering the potential for improved outcomes and quality of life. Continued research and development efforts aim to expand its utility in other cancer types, further benefiting patients with limited treatment options
