Hyderabad (Telangana) [India], September 25: Reinforcing the Government of India’s mission to provide equitable healthcare, Hetero Healthcare Limited, in partnership with Enzene Biosciences, has launched Perzea, its most affordable biosimilar Pertuzumab for HER2-positive breast cancer. This initiative underlines the critical need for advanced cancer treatment accessibility in the country.
Closing the Treatment Gap
Pertuzumab, a globally accepted monoclonal antibody therapy, significantly improves outcomes when used with trastuzumab and chemotherapy. However, for many Indian patients, high costs have been a deterrent. Perzea bridges this divide, offering patients a more affordable yet effective option.
“Hetero Healthcare is proud to support the nation’s healthcare goals,” said Mr. M. Srinivas Reddy, Managing Director. “Perzea represents our responsibility to provide Indian patients with world-class therapies at a fraction of global costs.”
Strengthening Oncology Access in India
This launch also reflects India’s growing role as a hub for biosimilar development. By collaborating with Enzene Biosciences, Hetero Healthcare demonstrates how partnerships can combine science, scale, and affordability to improve patient outcomes.
