CONNECTING YOU WITH YOUR PATIENTS

At Roche, we believe in a shared purpose in improving the care and treatment of patients living with difficult to treat cancers. We understand and empathise with the demands you face managing the needs of these patients.

Roche is committed to exploring new treatment options to individualise treatment and meet patients’ needs. TECENTRIQ has proven efficacy as monotherapy as well as in combination with other medicines and we are committed to exploring new combinations to improve patient outcomes (ref. SmPC). 

TECENTRIQ is an anti PD-L1 cancer immunotherapy that specifically targets PD-L1 on tumour and tumour-infiltrating immune cells across a broad range of solid tumours. TECENTRIQ offers a pioneering, targeted treatment with proven efficacy and an acceptable tolerability profile (ref. SmPC). Please see the specific indications for more information.

CONNECTING TECENTRIQ AND COMBINATIONS

TECENTRIQ has proven efficacy as monotherapy as well as in combination with other medicines and we are committed to explore new combinations for better patient outcomes (ref. SmPC).

In many difficult-to-treat tumour types with a high unmet need, including metastatic urothelial carcinoma, triple negative breast cancer and lung cancer (non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer), TECENTRIQ has shown significant improvements in progression-free and/or overall survival (ref. SmPC). Importantly, treatment can be tailored (i.e., in combination with the standard of care, or different dosing schedules) according to the type of cancer and the patient’s individual needs (ref. SmPC).
Read SmPC for more details

The multiple indications of TECENTRIQ (ref. SmPC)
provide a wealth of data to inform treatment decision-making and deliver valuable reassurance when considering the needs of your patients with cancer. Please see the specific indications for more information.

Connecting PATIENTS TO THEIR LOVED ONES

CONNECTING PATIENTS TO THEIR LOVED ONES

TECENTRIQ treatment offers the potential to improve treatment outcomes and maintain patient quality of life in your difficult to treat cancer patients, so they can hopefully spend more time with their loved ones.

TECENTRIQ is approved in metastatic urothelial carcinoma, non-small cell lung cancer, extensive-stage small cell lung cancer and triple negative breast cancer (ref. SmPC).
