Price List of Sotoraxibu

Sotorasiib is a targeted therapy drug targeting the KRAS G12C mutation. It is mainly used to treat patients with locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) carrying the KRAS G12C mutation who have received at least one systemic therapy. Currently, there are three versions of Sothoracib, namely the Lao version, the Bangladeshi version and the German version.

The price of the original drug Sotolaxib

The high cost of research and development of the original drug, coupled with the market exclusivity during the patent protection period, keeps its price high. According to recent public information, each box of the original drug Sotorasibu sells for about $50,000 and contains 240 pills. This price is undoubtedly a huge financial burden for many families, especially if long-term treatment is required. Purchasing original drugs usually requires going through designated international medical institutions or specific channels, such as importing from developed countries such as the United States and Germany, which adds additional logistics and tariff costs.

Soteracib generic drug price

The emergence of generic drugs provides the possibility to reduce the financial burden on patients. Currently, there are generic drugs of sotorasibu produced in many countries and regions on the market, with different prices. For example, the price of the generic drug Sotorasibu produced by Everest Pharmaceuticals in Bangladesh is about $4,000 per box, while the price of the generic drug produced by Lucius Pharmaceuticals in Laos is even lower, about $1,600 per box, which is much cheaper than the original drug.

Reasons for price differences

The price difference between original drugs and generic drugs is mainly due to factors such as research and development costs, production costs, market positioning, and patent protection. The research and development of original drugs involves huge upfront investments and long-term clinical trials, while generic drugs are produced after the patent of the original drugs expires, eliminating this part of the cost. In addition, generic drug manufacturers often reduce prices through economies of scale and cost controls.

Precautions when purchasing generic drugs

Although the price of generic drugs is lower, patients still need to be cautious when purchasing. Patients need to ensure that generic drugs are purchased from legal sources and have been approved by the local Food and Drug Administration. After purchasing the drug, generic drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the drug. Patients should also understand the manufacturers and quality control of generic drugs and choose products from reputable pharmaceutical companies.
