| Gemcitabine | Gemzar | Difluorodeoxycytidine Hydrochlorothiazide|LY-188011 | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Gemzar (gemcitabine) is converted in cells to difluorodeoxycytidine di- and triphosphate (dFdCDP, dFdCTP), which act to inhibit ribonucleoside reductase and as a deoxynucleotide analog respectively, resulting in DNA strand termination and apoptosis (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
| Pertuzumab | Perjeta | 2C4 Antibody | HER2 (ERBB2) Antibody 79 | Perjeta (pertuzumab) is a monoclonal antibody that binds ERBB2 (HER2) to prevent dimerization and subsequent HER signaling, thereby resulting in apoptosis and tumor growth inhibition (PMID: 15699478). Perjeta (pertuzumab) is FDA approved in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and Taxotere (docetaxel) for patients with ERBB2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer and in combination with Herceptin (trastuzumab) and chemotherapy as neoadjuvant treatment for patients with ERBB2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (FDA.gov). |
| Trastuzumab | Herceptin | Anti HER2 | HER2 (ERBB2) Antibody 79 | 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). |
