Encorafenib: Indication, Dosage, Side Effect
Indication:
Encorafenib is a prescription medicine used to treat certain types of cancer that have a specific genetic mutation called BRAF V600. It is mainly used for advanced or spread (metastatic) melanoma and colorectal cancer (CRC), and sometimes non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), but only if these cancers have the BRAF V600 mutation. It’s often given with other medicines like cetuximab for CRC. Encorafenib is not used in patients whose cancer does not have this mutation (wild-type BRAF), as it would not be effective.
Dosage:
Encorafenib is usually taken once a day in the dose prescribed by your doctor, often 450 mg daily when used with another medicine called binimetinib. The exact dose depends on your condition and how well you tolerate the treatment. Take the capsules whole with a glass of water—don’t crush, chew, or open them. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it at the same time every day helps maintain a steady level in your body.
Note:
Always follow your doctor’s instructions—do not change the dose on your own.
