Drug Name | Trade Name | Synonyms | Drug Classes | Drug Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Carboplatin | Paraplatin | CBDCA | Chemotherapy - Platinum 7 | Paraplatin (carboplatin) is a second-generation platinum compound and is activated intracellularly to form reactive platinum complexes that cross link DNA with DNA and with proteins. This induces apoptosis and inhibits cell growth (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
Cisplatin | Platinol | CDDP | Chemotherapy - Platinum 7 | Platinol (cisplatin) is a platinum based chemotherapeutic, which is FDA approved for bladder, ovarian, and testicular cancers (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
Cyclophosphamide | Cytoxan | CPM | Chemotherapy - Alkylating 18 | Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) is an alkylating agent, which inhibits DNA replication (NCI Drug Dictionary). Cytoxan (cyclophosphamide) is FDA approved in multiple hematological malignancies, breast cancer, neuroblastoma, ovarian cancer, and retinoblastoma (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
Etoposide | Vepesid | EPEG|Eposin|VP-16|VP-16-213 | TOPO2 inhibitor 5 | Vepesid (etoposide) binds to and inhibits DNA topoisomerase II, resulting in accumulated DNA damage, inhibition of replication, and cell death (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
Vincristine Sulfate | Oncovin | 22-Oxovincaleukoblastine|vincristine | Oncovin (vincristine) binds microtubules and prevents mitotic spindle formation, resulting in cell-cycle arrest (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
