Description
Lenvanix (Lenvatinib) 4mg Capsules – 30’s Pack
Overview:
Lenvanix contains Lenvatinib 4mg, a targeted cancer therapy belonging to the class of multi-kinase inhibitors. It works by blocking specific proteins (VEGFR1, VEGFR2, VEGFR3, FGFR, PDGFRα, KIT, RET) that play a crucial role in tumor growth and angiogenesis (the development of new blood vessels that feed tumors). Lenvanix is widely prescribed for thyroid cancer, renal cell carcinoma (RCC), and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
