Busulfan | Busulfex | Busulphan | Busulfex (busulfan) inhibits DNA replication and RNA transcription, likely through induction of DNA alkylation (PMID: 27481448). Busulfex (busulfan) in combination with cyclophosphamide is FDA approved as a conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation for patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (FDA.gov). | |
Clofarabine | Clolar | Clofarex | Clolar (clofarabine) is a purine nucleoside analog that inhibits ribonucleotide reductase and DNA polymerase, preventing DNA synthesis and repair, and induces apoptosis by inhibiting mitochondrial function (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). |
