Authorized genericNot sold

There isn’t one. An authorized generic is Tecentriq itself, from the same company, sold without the brand name, and usually for less. For now Tecentriq is the only choice; its maker’s savings card can lower what you pay.

Regular genericNot sold

Tecentriq is a biologic. Biologics don’t have generics, but some have biosimilars or an unbranded version from the same maker. Ask your pharmacist or prescriber whether one is sold. Generics usually come once the brand’s patents and exclusivity end. Until then, the maker’s savings card is the way to pay less.

What it’s used for

What the FDA label says

TECENTRIQ is a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) blocking antibody indicated:

Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC)

  • as adjuvant treatment following resection and platinum-based chemotherapy for adult patients with Stage II to IIIA NSCLC whose tumors have PD-L1 expression on ≥ 1% of tumor cells, as determined by an FDA-authorized test.
  • for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic NSCLC whose tumors have high PD-L1 expression (PD-L1 stained ≥ 50% of tumor cells [TC ≥ 50%] or PD-L1 stained tumor-infiltrating immune cells [IC] covering ≥ 10% of the tumor area [IC ≥ 10%] ), as determined by an FDA-authorized test, with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations.
  • in combination with bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin, for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations.
  • in combination with paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin for the first-line treatment of adult patients with metastatic non-squamous NSCLC with no EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations
  • for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic NSCLC who have disease progression during or following platinum-containing chemotherapy. Patients with EGFR or ALK genomic tumor aberrations should have disease progression on FDA-approved therapy for NSCLC harboring these aberrations prior to receiving TECENTRIQ.

Small Cell Lung Cancer (SCLC)

  • in combination with carboplatin and etoposide, for the first-line treatment of adult patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC).
  • in combination with lurbinectedin, for the maintenance treatment of adult patients with ES-SCLC whose disease has not progressed after first-line induction therapy with TECENTRIQ or atezolizumab and hyaluronidase-tqjs, carboplatin and etoposide.

Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

  • in combination with bevacizumab for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic HCC who have not received prior systemic therapy.

Melanoma

  • in combination with cobimetinib and vemurafenib for the treatment of adult patients with BRAF V600 mutation-positive unresectable or metastatic melanoma.

Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma (ASPS)

  • for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older with unresectable or metastatic ASPS.

Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC)

  • as adjuvant treatment of adult patients with MIBC after cystectomy who have circulating tumor DNA molecular residual disease (ctDNA MRD) as determined by an FDA-authorized test.

Mismatch Repair–Deficient Colon Cancer

  • in combination with a fluoropyrimidine and oxaliplatin for the adjuvant treatment of adult and pediatric patients 2 years of age and older with Stage III, mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) colon cancer.
