How much does a box of Seleniso cost in 2024?

Selinexor is an oral anticancer drug that is a selective nuclear protein transport inhibitor. Its main component is selinexor, which inhibits the proliferation and survival of cancer cells by interfering with the transport process of nuclear proteins.

The drug’s mechanism of action is mainly reflected in the inhibition of nuclear proteinXPO1 (Exportin 1). This effect helps prevent the division and proliferation of cancer cells and effectively controls the growth of tumors.

It is mainly used to treat multiple myeloma (MM), especially in patients who are ineffective or intolerant to other treatment options. The efficacy of selinesol has been recognized in patients with refractory or relapsed multiple myeloma, helping to extend patient survival and improve quality of life.

Seleniso is already on the market in China and has been included in medical insurance, but its price is quite expensive, about 10,000 to 20,000 yuan, making patients bear higher treatment costs. It is recommended to consult the local hospital pharmacy for specific prices and medical insurance reimbursement status. Different from the domestic market, Seleniso has two options: original drug and generic drug in the foreign market. The original drug is the American version of the original drug. Because of its higher research and development costs, the price is even more expensive, even as high as hundreds of thousands of yuan. In comparison, generic drugs are more affordable. Lao generic drugs are one of the relatively low-priced generic drugs, with prices ranging from 2,000 yuan to 4,000 yuan. Compared with original drugs, they are more affordable. The ingredients of original drugs and generic drugs are basically the same.
