Description
Palnat 100 mg Capsule contains Palbociclib, a targeted oral anticancer medicine used in the treatment of hormone receptor–positive (HR+), HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer. It is a CDK4/6 inhibitor that helps slow the growth and spread of cancer cells. Palnat is usually prescribed in combination with hormone therapy and is taken under oncologist supervision.
Benefits
-
Slows tumor growth and delays cancer progression
-
Doubles progression-free survival compared to hormone therapy alone
-
Oral therapy with outpatient convenience
-
Improves treatment outcomes when combined with endocrine therapy
Indications and Usage
Palnat (Palbociclib) is indicated for:
-
HR-positive, HER2-negative advanced or metastatic breast cancer, in combination with:
-
Letrozole (first-line therapy in postmenopausal women)

Fulvestrant (in patients who have progressed after hormone therapy)
-
Treatment must be initiated and monitored by an oncologist with regular blood test follow-ups.
How it Works
Palbociclib blocks CDK4 and CDK6, proteins involved in cell cycle regulation. By inhibiting these proteins, it prevents cancer cells from multiplying, thus slowing tumor growth and disease progression in HR+/HER2– breast cancer.
