Durvalumab | Imfinzi | MEDI4736 | Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor 146 PD-L1/PD-1 antibody 86 | Imfinzi (durvalumab) is a monoclonal antibody that binds to and inhibits PD-L1 (CD274), potentially resulting in increased immune response to tumors (PMID: 25943534, PMID: 28214651). Imfinzi (durvalumab) is FDA approved for use in patients with urothelial carcinoma and unresectable, stage III non-small cell lung cancer, and in combination with etoposide and carboplatin or cisplatin in patients with extensive stage small cell lung cancer (FDA.gov). |
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). |
Nab-paclitaxel | Abraxane | ABI-007|Paclitaxel Protein-bound | Chemotherapy - Taxane 2 | Abraxane (nab-paclitaxel) is an albumin-stablized version of paclitaxel, which binds microtubules and prevents depolymerization, resulting in decreased cell motility and division (NCI Drug Dictionary). |
