Early breast cancer (eBC)
PHESGO is indicated for use in combination with chemotherapy in:
the neoadjuvant treatment of adult patients with HER2-positive, locally advanced, inflammatory, or early stage breast cancer at high risk of recurrence1
the adjuvant treatment of adult patients with HER2-positive early breast cancer at high risk of recurrence1
The Experts
PHESGO is a fixed-dose combination of pertuzumab and trastuzumab in one vial for subcutaneous use given every 3 weeks1
In patients receiving a taxane, PHESGO should be administered prior to the taxane.
* Patients should be observed for injection-related reactions and hypersensitivity reactions. Observation period should start following administration of PHESGO and be completed prior to any subsequent administration of chemotherapy1
Once pertuzumab-based therapy has been safely established, the physician may determine the suitability of administration of PHESGO outside of the clinical setting (e.g., at home) by a healthcare professional (see SmPC section 4.4).1
