| AK105 | Penpulimab-kcqx | AK-105|AK 105|Penpulimab | Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor 150 PD-L1/PD-1 antibody 132 | Penpulimab-kcqx (AK105) is a monoclonal antibody against CD274 (PD-L1) that inhibits binding to the PDCD1 (PD1) receptor, potentially resulting in enhanced anti-tumor immune response (PMID: 29932513). Penpulimab-kcqx (AK105) is FDA-approved for use as monotherapy for adult patients with metastatic non-keratinizing nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) that progressed on prior therapy, and in combination with cisplatin or carboplatin and gemcitabine as first-line treatment for adult patients with recurrent or metastatic non-keratinizing NPC (FDA.gov). |
| 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). |
| 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). |
