.@Pfizer This is a BEYOND EXORBITANT cost for at least 95% of India’s population, if not more! I am myself on Lorlatinib and I KNOW the struggle.
I understand the need to make profits, but should it be at the cost of lives?! Please DO BETTER. @PMOIndia@narendramodi@MoHFW_INDIA@AyushmanNHA
Financial Toxicity is a grade 6 toxicity.
Borrowed money, debt, out of pocket expenses... After death also, it haunts.
Grades of cancer treatment toxicities are 1 to 5. (From mild to death).
Request EORTC to include this in toxicity criteria.
.@pfizer Lorlatinib costs ₹250,000 for 30 tablets in India. Even with patient assistance, ₹125,000/month is beyond reach for most ALK+ patients, & they are dying. Please make Lorlatinib, the only 3rd-gen ALK med, affordable in India—like Crizotinib
