Phesgo contains a combination of hyaluronidase, pertuzumab, and trastuzumabis.

Phesgo is a cancer medicine that is used alone or with other medicines to treat early-stage breast cancer.

Phesgo is also used to treat HER2-positive breast cancer that is advanced or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic).

Phesgo is used for breast cancer only if your tumor tests positive for a protein called human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). HER2 protein can speed the growth of cancer cells.
