Fulvestrant
Uses
Fulvestrant Injection is used as a hormonal breast cancer treatment, it is used to treat advanced breast cancer and metastatic breast cancer.
How it Works
Most breast cancers need the female hormone oestrogen to grow. The cells of these cancers have tiny areas called receptors on their surface, which estrogen can attach to. They are called 'hormone receptor-positive' cancers. Fulvestrant Injection works by blocking the 'hormone receptor-positive' cancers and this prevents estrogen from reaching the cancer cells. This slows the growth of the cancer.
