I’ve been offered the Pemgarda infusion but was told I was the only patient who requested it at my oncology office. Has anyone received it?

Pemgarda was only recently approved for use, so we only have 7 posts about it to date:

I hope you can report an easy, effective experience with it!

I had 2 doses of Pemgarda in the Canopy trial with no side effects and I haven’t had covid. It’s given by infusion, last 3 months and is effective against the latest variants.

I’m looking for my next dose. May I ask what state you’re in?

Thanks so much for answering! I’m in Maryland. I’m scheduled this month and did well with Evusheld, so I’m hoping this is as successful. Best to you!

There is a website being set up to locate Pemgarda. Would you mind sharing the location in Maryland, I can email that information to the website creator.

Sure! My oncologist is in Annapolis; Maryland Hematology and Oncology. I learned the office is providing it on a patient request basis only. I was the only one who asked. Good luck!

I want to but neither of my oncology clinics offer it

Does anyone know where to get it in Utah?

Thx

Mine said the same initially and decided a month later they would order it on a patient request basis.
