Drug Name | Trade Name | Synonyms | Drug Classes | Drug Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Fluorouracil | Adrucil | 5-FU|5-Fluorouracil | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Adrucil (fluorouracil) is an antimetabolite chemotherapeutic agent, which interferes with DNA and RNA synthesis thereby preventing cancer cell growth and is FDA approved for colorectal, breast, stomach, and pancreatic cancer (FDA.gov). |
Leucovorin | Wellcovorin | Calcium folinate|Calcium citrovorum factor|folinic acid | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Wellcovorin (leucovorin) is a metabolite of folate that enhances the efficacy of fluoruracil (PMID: 32490554). |
Oxaliplatin | Eloxatin | Diaminocyclohexane Oxalatoplatinum | Chemotherapy - Platinum 7 | Eloxatin (oxaliplatin) is comprised of a platinum complex, which causes DNA-platinum cross-links, inhibition of DNA replication and transcription, and cell toxicity, and is FDA approved for colorectal cancer (FDA.gov). |
Trastuzumab | Herceptin | Anti HER2 | HER2 (ERBB2) Antibody 76 | Herceptin (trastuzumab) is a monoclonal antibody, which binds ERBB2 (HER2) to induce tumor cellular cytotoxicity (PMID: 17611206). Herceptin (trastuzumab) is FDA approved for HER2-overexpressing (or amplification) breast cancer, gastric adenocarcinoma, and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (FDA.gov). |
Tucatinib | Tukysa | ONT-380|ARRY-380|irbinitinib | HER2 Inhibitor 42 | Tukysa (tucatinib) selectivity inhibits ERBB2 (HER2), resulting in decreased proliferation and increased apoptosis in ERBB2 (HER2) expressing tumor cells (PMID: 28053022). Tukysa (tucatinib) in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and Xeloda (capecitabine) is FDA approved for use in patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic ERBB2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer, including patients with brain metastasis, who have received prior anti-HER2 therapies, and in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) for patients with RAS wild-type ERBB2 (HER2)-positive unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer that has progressed following fluoropyrimidine-, oxaliplatin-, and irinotecan-based chemotherapy (FDA.gov). |
