Lentris 4mg A capsule is a medication that contains the active ingredient lenvatinib, which belongs to a group of medications known as antineoplastic agents. These medications are prescribed for the treatment of cancer by inhibiting the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. It is specifically indicated for the treatment of locally recurrent or metastatic thyroid cancer in adults when radioactive iodine treatment is no longer effective at controlling the disease. Lentris is indicated for use as a monotherapy or in combination with other medications or therapies as part of a treatment plan for thyroid cancer.

In addition to its use in the treatment of thyroid cancer, Lentris 4mg is also indicated for the treatment of liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) in adults when it becomes unresectable (unable to be removed by surgery). It is also used in combination with the anticancer medication pembrolizumab to treat endometrial carcinoma (cancer of the lining of the uterus) when cancer has spread and cannot be treated by surgery or radiation therapy. It is also indicated for use in combination with the anticancer medication everolimus to treat advanced renal cell carcinoma (kidney cancer) in adults before receiving anti-angiogenic therapy (a type of cancer treatment that targets the blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to cancer cells).

Uses of Lentris 4mg Capsule

Lentris 4mg is prescribed for the treatment of several types of cancer, including:

  • Certain types of thyroid cancer in their advanced stages
  • Advanced liver cancer
  • Endometrial cancer
  • How Lentris 4mg Capsule works?

    Lentris 4mg capsules work by blocking the enzyme receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). RTKs are proteins responsible for the formation of new blood vessels that supply oxygen and nutrients to cells, which are necessary for their growth and proliferation. RTKs are present in high concentrations in cancer cells, and their activation can contribute to the growth and spread of the cancer. By inhibiting the action of RTKs, Lentris 4mg may delay the growth and proliferation of cancer cells. This medication is often used as part of a treatment plan for cancer, and it may be used in combination with other medications or therapies.
