Synonyms
Therapy Description

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.

Drug Name Trade Name Synonyms Drug Classes Drug Description
Erlotinib Tarceva CP358774 EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 61 EGFR Inhibitor 1st gen 3 Tarceva (erlotinib) is a first-generation EGFR inhibitor that blocks EGFR signaling, potentially leading to inhibition of tumor growth (PMID: 30069756). Tarceva (erlotinib) is FDA approved for use in patients with non-small cell lung cancer harboring EGFR exon 19 deletions and/or EGFR L858R, and in combination with gemcitabine for patients with locally advanced, unresectable, or metastatic pancreatic cancer (FDA.gov).
Vemurafenib Zelboraf RO5185426|PLX4032 RAF Inhibitor (Pan) 27 Zelboraf (vemurafenib) inhibits BRAF V600E, wild-type BRAF, ARAF, and CRAF (PMID: 20179705), which may result in an inhibition of the MAPK signaling pathway resulting in a reduction of tumor cell proliferation (PMID: 20823850). Zelboraf (vemurafenib) is FDA approved for BRAF V600E-mutant melanoma and for BRAF V600-positive Erdheim-Chester disease (FDA.gov).

BRAF V600E colorectal cancer sensitive Erlotinib + Vemurafenib Preclinical - Cell line xenograft Actionable In a preclinical study, Zelboraf (vemurafenib) treatment in combination with Tarceva (erlotinib) enhanced tumor growth inhibition and increased survival in a cell line xenograft model of colorectal cancer harboring BRAF V600E compared to either agent alone (PMID: 22180495). 22180495
BRAF V600E colorectal cancer sensitive Erlotinib + Vemurafenib Preclinical - Cell line xenograft Actionable In a preclinical study, the combination of Zelboraf (vemurafenib) and Tarceva (erlotinib) resulted in improved inhibition of tumor growth in BRAF V600E mutant human colon cancer cell line xenograft models compared to either drug as monotherapy (PMID: 22448344). 22448344
BRAF V600E colorectal cancer sensitive Erlotinib + Vemurafenib Phase Ib/II Actionable In a Phase Ib/II trial (EVICT), the combination of Zelboraf (vemurafenib) and Tarceva (erlotinib) resulted in an overall response rate of 16% (5/31; 5 partial responses), a clinical benefit rate of 65% (20/31), a median progression-free survival of 3.9 months, and a median overall survival of 6.3 months in patients with colorectal cancer harboring BRAF V600E (PMID: 36638198). 36638198
BRAF V600E Advanced Solid Tumor predicted - sensitive Erlotinib + Vemurafenib Case Reports/Case Series Actionable In a Phase Ib/II trial (EVICT), the combination of Zelboraf (vemurafenib) and Tarceva (erlotinib) resulted in an overall response rate of 43% (3/7), a clinical benefit rate of 100%, and a median PFS of 5.5 months in patients with advanced solid tumors other tan colorectal cancer harboring BRAF V600E (PMID: 36638198). 36638198
