Afinitor is used to treat adult patients with:
- advanced hormone receptor-positive breast cancer in postmenopausal women whose disease is no longer controlled by other treatments (so-called ‘non-steroidal aromatase inhibitors’). It is given with a type of medicine called exemestane, a steroidal aromatase inhibitor, which is used for hormonal anticancer treatment.
- advanced tumours called neuroendocrine tumours that originate in the stomach, intestines, lungs or pancreas. It is given if the tumours are inoperable and do not produce too much of specific hormones or other substances naturally secreted by the body.
- advanced kidney cancer (advanced renal cell carcinoma) when other treatments (so-called ‘VEGF-targeted therapy’) have not helped to stop your disease.
