Drug Name | Trade Name | Synonyms | Drug Classes | Drug Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
Cytarabine | Cytosar-U | Ara-C | Cytosar-U (cytarabine) is a cytidine analog that, when incorporated into DNA, inhibits DNA synthesis and repair (PMID: 32524309). | |
Methotrexate | Abitrexate | Amethopterin | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Methotrexate is an antimetabolite, which inhibits DHFR resulting in decreased immune function and antineoplastic activity and is FDA approved for psoriasis, RA, and several cancers including choriocarcinoma, AML, lung, head and neck and epidermoid (FDA.gov). |
Rituximab | Rituxan | IDEC-C2B8|MabThera | CD20 Antibody 24 | Rituxan (rituximab) is a chimeric mononclonal antibody that binds to CD20 on B-cells, resulting in induction of complement-dependent and antibody-dependent cytotoxicity, and potentially leading to decreased B-cell tumor growth (PMID: 28983798). Rituxan (rituximab) is FDA approved for use as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy in CD20-positive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma, in combination with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide in CD20-positive chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and in combination with chemotherapy in pediatric patients (6 month to 18 years of age) with treatment-naive, CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, Burkitt-like lymphoma, or mature B-cell acute leukemia (B-AL) (FDA.gov). |
Venetoclax | Venclexta | ABT-199|RG7601|GDC-0199|ABT119|Venclyxto | BCL2 inhibitor 27 | Venclexta (venetoclax) is a BH3-mimetic that binds to and inhibits BCL2, resulting in increased tumor cell apoptosis (PMID: 26589495, PMID: 25048785). Venclexta (venetoclax) is FDA approved for use in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL), and in combination with chemotherapy in patients 75 years old or older with newly-diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia (FDA.gov). |
