- Half of the people who received CYRAMZA + chemotherapy lived without their cancer getting worse for 4.5 months vs 3.0 months with chemotherapy alone
More people had tumor shrinkage
More people had their tumors shrink with CYRAMZA + chemotherapy vs chemotherapy alone
- Tumors shrank (by 30% or more) in 23% of people taking CYRAMZA + chemotherapy vs 14% taking chemotherapy alone
Cyramza may help you live longer
43% of people lived 1 year or longer with CYRAMZA + chemotherapy vs 38% with chemotherapy alone

What to expect during treatment
You’ve decided to move forward and are ready to start treatment. Let’s do this.
Treatment will be given by an intravenous (IV) infusion, in either the doctor's office, a hospital, or an infusion center.
First, you'll be given CYRAMZA (60- minute infusion), followed by docetaxel (60 minute infusion). If you handle the first infusion of CYRAMZA well, then your next CYRAMZA infusions may only take 30 minutes.
Before you receive CYRAMZA, your doctor will give you different medicines to help prevent an allergic reaction that may occur during the infusion.
CYRAMZA will be given in combination with docetaxel (a type of chemotherapy).
Understanding your dosing schedule with CYRAMZA
CYRAMZA + DOCETAXEL (A TYPE OF CHEMOTHERAPY)
CYRAMZA + docetaxel will be given to you once every 3 weeks, or as recommended by your doctor.
Your doctor will determine the number of treatments you receive.
SELECT SAFETY INFORMATION
CYRAMZA may cause serious side effects, including:
Reactions related to infusing CYRAMZA have happened. These can be severe and life threatening. Most of these reactions happened during or after the first or second CYRAMZA infusion. Symptoms of infusion reactions include shaking or stiffness of the body, back pain or spasms, chest pain or tightness, chills, flushing (sudden warmth and/or reddened skin on the face, neck, or upper chest), difficulty breathing, wheezing (a whistling sound in the breath caused by narrowed breathing tubes), becoming blue due to lack of oxygen, and tingling or numbness of the skin. In severe reactions, rapid heartbeat, low blood pressure, and severe trouble breathing may happen. Your health care team will give you medicine before each CYRAMZA infusion and will watch you for these side effects. If a reaction happens, CYRAMZA treatment may be infused at a slower rate or may be permanently stopped, depending on how severe the reaction is.
