About LEUKERAN and its cost

What is this medication? LEUKERAN is a prescription chemotherapy medication primarily used to treat certain types of cancer that affect the blood and lymphatic system. It is most commonly prescribed for individuals diagnosed with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a slow-growing cancer of the white blood cells. In addition to treating leukemia, it is frequently used to manage various forms of malignant lymphoma, including Hodgkin lymphoma and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. The medication helps to control the progression of these diseases by targeting and reducing the number of abnormal cells in the body. The active ingredient in LEUKERAN is chlorambucil, which belongs to a class of drugs known as alkylating agents. It works by attaching to the DNA of cancer cells, which prevents them from replicating and growing. Because it interferes with the division of these harmful cells, it can help shrink tumors and improve blood counts over time. This medication is typically taken orally in tablet form, and healthcare providers usually monitor a patient's blood levels closely during treatment to ensure the medication is working effectively while maintaining safety.

LEUKERAN is made by Aspen Global Inc.. Like most brand-name drugs, it's priced at a high list price — but patients rarely pay that list price. The options above are the real paths most people use to get it affordably.

Common questions

What's the cheapest way to afford LEUKERAN?

It depends on your insurance. On Medicare, apply for the manufacturer's Patient Assistance Program (PAP) — it gives the drug free if you meet income requirements. With private insurance, the manufacturer copay card usually drops your copay to $0-$25. Uninsured patients should compare the PAP with Cost Plus Drugs cash price.

Can I use a copay card with Medicare for LEUKERAN?

No — federal law (the Anti-Kickback Statute) prohibits manufacturer copay cards on Medicare, Medicaid, TriCare, and VA prescriptions. But Aspen Global Inc. has a separate Patient Assistance Program for Medicare beneficiaries. Check the options above.

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover LEUKERAN?

Part D coverage varies by plan. We query the CMS Prescription Drug Plan file to show you what percentage of plans cover it and at what tier. For your exact copay, pick "Medicare" above and check your plan's Summary of Benefits, or log in to Medicare.gov.

How long does a Patient Assistance Program take?

Most PAPs take 2-6 weeks from application to first fill. Ask the manufacturer about a "bridge supply" — many will ship 30 days free while your application is being reviewed so you don't go without the drug.

What if I have a high-deductible plan?

For generics, Cost Plus Drugs cash price is often cheaper than your deductible-phase copay. For brand names, the manufacturer copay card almost always wins. A GoodRx coupon can be a last resort for uncovered drugs, but it doesn't count toward your deductible.

Are there charity grants for Lymphoma?

Charities like HealthWell Foundation, PAN Foundation, Good Days, and the National Organization for Rare Disorders provide copay help for specific conditions. Funds often run out mid-year — apply early. We list the specific grants for your condition in the options above.
