What is the latest price of cabozantinib in 2024?

The tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) cabozantinib is frequently used in first-line clinical trials and clinical practice as monotherapy or in combination with oral therapies. Cabozantinib is used to treat advanced kidney cancer, sometimes in combination with another drug called nivolumab; it is also used to treat liver cancer in patients who have been previously treated with sorafenib; and it is used to treat thyroid cancer in people 12 years and older. Another form of cabozantinib is used to treat thyroid cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and may also be used for purposes not listed in this Medication Guide.

Follow all directions on your prescription label, and read any medication guides or inserts. Your doctor may occasionally change the dosage. Take medication exactly as directed. Do not substitute cabozantinib tablets for cabozantinib capsules. Take cabozantinib on an empty stomach, at least 1 hour before or 2 hours after eating. Do not take this medication with food. When used with cabozantinib, nivolumab is usually given as an intravenous infusion every 2 to 4 weeks.

The original drug Cabozantinib is not marketed in the country and therefore cannot be included in medical insurance.

The price of tablets may be more than 30,000 yuan, and the price of capsule preparations may be more than 40,000 yuan (prices may fluctuate due to exchange rates).

For example, the price of pharmaceuticals produced by Bangladeshi pharmaceutical factories may be more than 2,000 yuan (the price may fluctuate due to the exchange rate), which is relatively cheap.
