Fludarabine | Fludara | FAMP|Fludarabine phosphate | Flurdara (fludarabine) is converted to 2-fluoro-ara-ATP intracellularly, which potentially inhibits DNA polymerase alpha, ribonucleotide reductase and DNA primase, leading to decreased DNA synthesis and reduced tumor growth (NCI Drug Dictionary) | |
Ibrutinib | Imbruvica | PCI-32765 | BTK inhibitor 37 EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 62 HER2 Inhibitor 42 | Imbruvica (ibrutinib) is a selective, irreversible inhibitor of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK), which promotes apoptosis and inhibits B-cell mediated signaling pathways, and has additional activity against ERBB2 (HER2) and EGFR (PMID: 20615965, PMID: 21422473, PMID: 27678331).
