TECENTRIQ HYBREZA (atezolizumab and hyaluronidase-tqjs) is a prescription medicine used to treat:

Adults with a type of lung cancer called non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

  • TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used alone as a treatment for your lung cancer:
    • to help prevent your lung cancer from coming back after your tumor(s) has been removed by surgery and you have received platinum-based chemotherapy, and
    • you have stage 2 to stage 3A NSCLC (talk to your healthcare provider about what these stages mean), and
    • your cancer tests positive for “PD-L1”.
  • TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used alone as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
    • has spread or grown, and
    • your cancer tests positive for “high PD-L1”, and
    • your tumor does not have an abnormal “EGFR” or “ALK” gene.
  • TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used with the medicines bevacizumab, paclitaxel, and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:
    • has spread or grown, and
    • is a type called “non-squamous NSCLC”, and
    • your tumor does not have an abnormal “EGFR” or “ALK” gene.
  • TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used with the medicines paclitaxel protein-bound and carboplatin as your first treatment when your lung cancer:

    • has spread or grown, and
    • you have tried chemotherapy that contains platinum, and it did not work or is no longer working.
    • If your tumor has an abnormal “EGFR” or “ALK” gene, you should have also tried an FDA-approved therapy for tumors with these abnormal genes, and it did not work or is no longer working.

Adults with a type of lung cancer called small cell lung cancer (SCLC). TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used with the chemotherapy medicines carboplatin and etoposide as your first treatment when your lung cancer:

  • is a type called “extensive-stage small cell lung cancer,” which means that it has spread or grown.

Adults with a type of liver cancer called hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). TECENTRIQ HYBREZA may be used with the medicine bevacizumab when your liver cancer:
