What is a Generic Drug?

A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.

The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.

Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.

Description

Keytruda is a cancer medicine that interferes with the growth and spread of cancer cells in the body. Keytruda is used alone or in combination with other medicines to treat certain types of cancer such as: • melanoma; • non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); • head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC); • classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL); • primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBCL); • urothelial carcinoma; • microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) solid tumors; • microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) or mismatch repair deficient colorectal cancer; • gastric cancer; • esophageal cancer; • cervical cancer; • hepatocellular carcinoma; • Merkel cell carcinoma; • renal cell carcinoma; • endometrial carcinoma; • tumor mutational burden-high (TMB-H) cancer; • cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma; or • triple-negative breast cancer. Keytruda is often given when the cancer has spread to other parts of the body, or cannot be treated with surgery or radiation, or when other cancer treatments did not work or have stopped working. For some types of cancer, pembrolizumab is given only if your tumor tests positive for PD-L1, or if the tumor has been tested for a specific genetic marker (including EGFR, ALK, HER2/neu, or TMB).

You will need frequent medical tests to help your doctor determine if it is safe for you to keep receiving Keytruda. Do not miss any follow-up visits.
