---|---|---|---|---|
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). |
Mannitol | Bronchitol | Cordycepic acid | ||
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 23 | 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). |
