This pharmacy platform, created for pharmacists, shares the Pierre Fabre group’s expertise and convictions, in total coherence with its core mission: with every single person we care for, we make the world a better place. 

Each year in the world, several million people find out that they have cancer. For a long time, this meant a final verdict, but today it is part of a new perspective: cancer is becoming a chronic illness.

60 YEARS
of pharmaceutical expertise, inventor of dermo-cosmetics

Inventor of dermo-cosmetics in 1974, Pierre Fabre created and developed dermo-cosmetic skincare products, combining action in favor of health and the beauty of skin and hair.

 

In 1981, the meeting between Mr. Pierre and Professor Pierre Potier was a decisive step in the Group’s oncology focus. Impressed by Professor Potier's scientific stature, with whom he shared a deep respect for nature, Pierre Fabre agreed to launch the clinical development and industrialization of vinorelbine – which has a powerful anti-tumor activity. The molecule obtained an MA in April 1989.

 

On 23 December 1994, it became the first French anti-cancer drug registered in the United States.
