This medicine is typically prescribed as part of combination therapy with other anticancer agents such as capecitabine, trastuzumab, letrozole, or anastrozole. The combination approach has been shown to achieve better therapeutic outcomes compared to using a single medicine alone, especially for patients whose cancer has continued to progress despite previous treatments.
