About Pazopanib and its cost

What is this medication? Pazopanib is a prescription drug classified as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, which is used primarily to treat specific types of cancer. It is most commonly prescribed for patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma, a type of kidney cancer. Additionally, it is used for the treatment of advanced soft tissue sarcoma in individuals who have previously undergone chemotherapy. By targeting specific proteins involved in cell growth and the development of blood vessels that supply tumors, the medication helps slow down the progression of the disease.

The medication works by inhibiting the action of enzymes called tyrosine kinases, which are responsible for signaling cancer cells to multiply and spread. By blocking these signals, pazopanib can help shrink tumors or prevent them from getting larger. Patients usually take this medicine in pill form on an empty stomach, once a day, as directed by their healthcare provider. Because it affects the vascular system and internal organs, it is important for doctors to monitor the patient's blood pressure and liver function regularly during the course of treatment.

Pazopanib is made by a pharmaceutical manufacturer. 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 Pazopanib?

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 Pazopanib?

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

Does my Medicare Part D plan cover Pazopanib?

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 Cancer?

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.
