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). |
Necitumumab | Portrazza | IMC-11F8 | EGFR Antibody 60 | 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). |
