Paxene

What it's used for

Paxene is indicated for the treatment of patients with: advanced AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma (AIDS-KS) who have failed prior liposomal anthracycline therapy; metastatic carcinoma of the breast (MBC) who have failed, or are not candidates for standard anthracycline-containing therapy; advanced carcinoma of the ovary (AOC) or with residual disease (> 1 cm) after initial laparotomy, in combination with cisplatin as first-line treatment; metastatic carcinoma of the ovary (MOC) after failure of platinum-containing combination therapy without taxanes as second-line treatment; non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) who are not candidates for potentially curative surgery and/or radiation therapy, in combination with cisplatin. Limited efficacy data supports this indication (see section 5.1).
