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). |
Etoposide | Vepesid | EPEG|Eposin|VP-16|VP-16-213 | TOPO2 inhibitor 5 | Vepesid (etoposide) binds to and inhibits DNA topoisomerase II, resulting in accumulated DNA damage, inhibition of replication, and cell death (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
Vincristine sulfate liposome | Marqibo | VSL | Marqibo (vincristine sulfate liposome) is a liposomal formulation of vincristine with improved bioavailability (PMID: 23212117). Marqibo (vincristine sulfate liposome) is FDA-approved for Philadelphia chromosome (BCR-ABL1)-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (FDA.gov). |
