What is Gilotrif?

Gilotrif is a medication prescribed to adults with a type of cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It’s used when:

• Your cancer has spread to other parts of your body (metastatic cancer)

And

• Your cancerous cells have a type of mutation in a certain set of genes called epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) genes. This mutation must be one that doesn’t make the cancerous cells resistant to treatments like Gilotrif – you’ll be tested to see if this is the case)
• You haven’t previously been treated for metastatic lung cancer (cancer that started in your lungs and then spread to other parts of your body)

Or

• You have a type of non-small cell lung cancer called squamous cell carcinoma (SqCC)
• Your cancer has previously been treated with a chemotherapy that contains platinum

Gilotrif is a targeted therapy (rather than a traditional chemotherapy) that specifically affects your cancerous cells. It can stop them from growing and spreading, helping to slow the progression of your cancer. You take Gilotrif as a tablet that you swallow.

Gilotrif active ingredients

The active ingredient in Gilotrif is called afatinib. It helps to stop the growth and spread of cancerous cells. As Aafatinib is a targeted therapy, it is designed to specifically attack the cancerous cells that cause your NSCLC. It does this by binding to the faulty epidermal growth factor receptors that help your cancerous cells grow and multiply. This stops the receptors working, making it harder for your cancer to spread.
