FIRMAGON^® treating beyond the prostate

CVD is the leading cause of death in prostate cancer patients, after prostate cancer itself^7,8

Up to 30% of prostate cancer patients are likely to be at high risk of a CV event²

LHRH agonists are associated with a significantly increased risk of CV events vs. no treatment⁹

Compared with no treatment, LHRH agonists (including leuprorelin and goserelin) increase the risk of ⁹

Diabetes
(HR: 1.44, 95% CI: 1.34–1.55, p<0.001)

Coronary heart disease
(HR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.10–1.21, p<0.001)

Myocardial infarction
(HR: 1.11, 95% CI: 1.01–1.21, p=0.03)

Sudden cardiac death
(HR: 1.16, 95% CI: 1.05–1.27, p=0.004)

FIRMAGON^® significantly lowers the risk of CV events vs. LHRH agonists^1-6

UK Primary Care database of patients with prostate cancer (population-based cohort study)¹

(n=9,081, aged ≥40 years)

More patients prescribed FIRMAGON^® had pre-existing CVD at baseline vs. patients on LHRH agonists^*

6.9% estimated relative risk of CV event with FIRMAGON^® vs.17.7% with LHRH agonists>

(RR 0.39) (95% CI 0.191-0.799, p=0.01)

* LHRH agonists refers to pooled data of patients receiving leuprorelin, goserelin and triptorelin.
