1. What is Onnimia and how is it used

Onnimia contains the active ingredient fulvestrant, which belongs to the group of estrogen blockers. Estrogens, a type of female sex hormone, may be involved in the development of breast cancer in some cases.

Fulvestrant is used:

?in monotherapy, to treat postmenopausal women with a type of breast cancer called estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer, which is locally advanced or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic), or

?in combination withpalbociclib to treat women with a type of breast cancer called hormone receptor-positive breast cancer, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative breast cancer, which is locally advanced or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic). Women who have not yet reached menopause will also be treated with a medication called a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) agonist.

Fulvestrant can be administered in combination with palbociclib. It is essential that you also read the prospectus for palbociclib. If you have any questions about palbociclib, consult your doctor.
