How Much Does Targeted therapy Cost in India in AUD?

Targeted therapy in India typically costs from AUD $3,169 to AUD $7,923. Prices depend on the specific drug type, whether using branded or generic biologics, and if treatment is inpatient or daycare. In Australia, this treatment averages AUD $16,134, meaning patients can save approximately 65% by choosing Indian medical hubs like Delhi, Mumbai, or Chennai.

  • Lutetium-177 therapy: AUD $7,923 to AUD $12,677 for advanced prostate or neuroendocrine cancers.
  • Actinium-225 therapy: AUD $12,245 to AUD $19,447 for targeted alpha-particle radiation treatment.
  • Generic biosimilars: often cost 50–70% less than branded equivalents like Herceptin or Bevacizumab.
  • Diagnostic preparation: PET/CT scans and molecular profiling typically add A$700–A$900 to the budget.

Bookimed Expert Insight: Significant value lies in India's status as a global hub for high-quality generic oncology drugs. Hospitals like BLK Super Speciality Hospital use diagnostic equipment identical to top European centres but at a fraction of the operating cost. Specialists such as Dr. Raj Nagarkar have performed over 50,000 surgeries, providing a level of clinical experience that is difficult to find elsewhere. This combination of high patient volumes and lower pharmaceutical costs offers Australians world-class care without the private health insurance gaps or waitlists found at home.

Doctors of the clinic are qualified, speak English well. But the organization of treatment, that is, all these coordinators and translators already when you are in India, is a huge minus of the process. Simply huge. Expectations of everything and everywhere for hours, sometimes at times, poor awareness, a terrible accent on Russian, that one can understand a lot to the exact opposite, ignorance of medical terms, that is, only life can translate. I accompanied mamutna treatment, I speak English a little, therefore something accelerated due to this. One patient should not go, look for an accompanying person if other countries do not fit the prices for treatment. If someone is traveling alone or an accompanying person does not know English, the process will spoil your nerves. The very examination and treatment, surgery, everything is at a good level. But before the ability to organize everything painlessly for the patient, it will still come to BLK not soon. I do not know, as in other clinics in India, I think it's the same. Translators are different here, and the problems are the same. So in the whole country I think. But if there is no way out, you can entrust local doctors to the health. The patient is well fed in the hospital and the accompanying person. Chambers of any size isolate the patient with curtains around the perimeter, you see only the staff, but keep in mind that the multiple rooms are very noisy. Who prays in Arabic for the whole room, who sings the song, who plays the game with sound effects, who is screaming on the phone, because there is still no silence, people still have groans for the illnesses of people ... they do not do anybody for unconnected phones, loud talks and other inadequacy.

Everything is well organized there
Was on vacation in the state of Goa. Before the trip, he performed an operation to remove prostate adenoma, according to the results of a biopsy, he found signs of adenocarcinoma. In order to have different opinions, the doctors decided to consult with a local oncourologist from Manipal hospital. Ostap Bondarenko from Bookimed arranged for me to see a doctor. Before that, he attempted to contact the hospital on his own, but they did not respond.  Everything is well organized there. I like it. All questions discussed. Translator Svetlana first discussed everything with me and clarified the terminology. And then at the reception everything is available to the doctor translated my questions and his advice to me.  The doctor is very competent and explained to me all possible treatment options and the necessary research.
