Information for the public
Eribulin (Halaven) is not normally available on the NHS for treating locally advanced or metastatic (secondary) breast cancer in adults who have had only 1 chemotherapy treatment.
If you have had only 1 chemotherapy treatment, your doctor should talk with you about other treatment options. If you are already taking eribulin, you should be able to continue until you and your doctor decide when best to stop.
