Description
Lenvat 10 mg (Lenvatinib) is a prescription cancer medicine used to help slow down the growth of certain types of tumors. It belongs to a group of medicines called targeted therapy, which means it works more precisely than traditional chemotherapy. This medicine is commonly used for thyroid cancer, liver cancer, kidney cancer, and some types of uterine cancer. It is usually taken at home as a capsule, making treatment more convenient for many patients.
Benefits
- Helps slow or stop cancer growth
- Can reduce tumor size in some patients
- Taken orally (no need for hospital-based IV in most cases)
- Often used when other treatments are no longer effective
- May help improve disease control and delay progression
Indications and Usage
Lenvat 10 mg is prescribed for:
- Thyroid cancer that no longer responds to radioactive iodine
- Liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma)
- Kidney cancer (usually combined with other medicines)
- Endometrial (uterine) cancer in advanced cases
Your doctor will decide if this medicine is right for your condition.
How it Works
Lenvatinib works by blocking signals that tumors use to grow new blood vessels. These blood vessels feed the cancer.
By cutting off this supply, the medicine helps slow down or stop tumor growth.
