Mounjaro & TMBC

I am currently in the process of being assigned a new oncologist so have been unable to go to the oncology dept with this.

i have mTNBC & currently NEAD, due to being overweight I am considering Mounjaro but wondered if there were any studies or information that lean towards this being a positive or negative option in this case.

  • Hello and thanks for your enquiry,

    Unfortunately, we are not aware of any recent published relevant studies, so cannot advise you regarding this. I think given that these weight loss injections are made by different companies, it will take some time for all the side effects and contraindications to their use, to emerge fully. I can't think of anywhere useful to signpost you too either.

    Hopefully your cancer specialist can advise further on this.

    I am sorry that we cannot be of more help on this occasion.

    Best wishes,

    Vanda
