| 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). |
| Ibrutinib | Imbruvica | PCI-32765 | BTK inhibitor 38 EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 63 HER2 Inhibitor 44 | Imbruvica (ibrutinib) is a selective, irreversible inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), which promotes apoptosis and inhibits B-cell mediated signaling pathways, and has additional activity against ERBB2 (HER2) and EGFR (PMID: 20615965, PMID: 21422473, PMID: 27678331). Imbruvica (Ibrutinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with CLL/SLL and CLL/SLL with del 17p, and Waldenstroem’s macroglobulinemia (FDA.gov). |
| Paclitaxel | Taxol | 7-Epipaclitaxel | Antimicrotubule Agent 14 BCL2 Family Inhibitor 6 | Taxol (paclitaxel) binds to tubulin to inhibit microtubule disassembly, which results in decreased cell division, and also binds to the anti-apoptotic factor Bcl-2, promoting apoptosis (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
