  • Each year lung cancer causes over 1.59 million deaths worldwide, more than any other cancer.

    I'm an ALK cancer patient and I'm taking Brigatinib for nearly a month now. That stuff has saved my life and turned it to the better. Way better than the chemotherapy I've had.

      Hi Alexi Lee,
      Thank you for getting in touch with us.
      If you have questions regarding a treatment or medication, please consult your healthcare provider first or get in touch with one of our offices in your country. You can find a detailed list of Roche offices: www.roche.com/about/business/roche_worldwide.htm. It’s not that we don’t want to help, but social media is not the right place to discuss private health information.
      Wishing you all the very best. Your Roche RUclips Team
