In the video, Dr. Carlos Barrios, director and principal investigator of the oncology research center at Hospital São Lucas, and president of the Latin American Cooperative Oncology Group in Porto Alegre, Brazil, explains safety profile of Ramiven in patients with node-positive, high-risk, hormone receptor positive early breast cancer. Over two years, Ramiven provides lasting protection for patients with node-positive, high-risk early breast cancer1.
Ramiven has a reversible and manageable safety profile with most adverse events being predictable, transient and low-grade.
Grade 3 diarrhea was reported reported by 7.8% of patients in Ramiven plus endocrine therapy with no grade 4 diarrhea reported2,3. Diarrhea typically occurs early within the first 8 days and last about 5-6 days with appropriate management. Proactive care is key. Clear guidance, early follow-up, and ensuring patients have anti-diarrheals can help them stay on treatment4,5.
If needed, dose adjustments can help patients complete their two-year course without compromising efficacy6. By managing side effects early, you help patients benefit from 2 years of treatment with Ramiven and endocrine therapy with a deepening effect at 5 years1,4,7. Ramiven in combinations with endocrine therapy provides protection during the critical first 2 years with carryover effect at 5 years. These benefits support the use of Ramiven in early breast cancer patients at high risk of recurrence1,2,7,8,9,10.
