| Fluorouracil | Adrucil | 5-FU|5-Fluorouracil | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Adrucil (fluorouracil) is an antimetabolite chemotherapeutic agent that interferes with DNA and RNA synthesis, thereby preventing cancer cell growth (PMID: 28520376). Adrucil (fluorouracil) is FDA-approved for use in patients with adenocarcinoma of the colon, rectum, breast, stomach, and pancreas (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). |
| Necitumumab | Portrazza | IMC-11F8 | EGFR Antibody 74 | Portrazza (necitumumab) is a fully human IgG1 mAb targeting EGFR, leading to the inhibition of downstream targets in the EGFR pathway, and thereby inhibiting cellular proliferation and invasion (PMID: 21154125). Portrazza (necitumumab) is approved for patients with metastatic squamous non-small cell lung cancer (FDA.gov). |
| 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). |
