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
Bicalutamide Casodex Hormone - Anti-androgens 48 Casodex (bicalutamide) is an androgen-receptor antagonist that binds androgen receptors and inhibits androgen binding, therefore inhibits AR-dependent growth of tumor cells (PMID: 9428389). Casodex (bicalutamide) is approved, in combination with a luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analog, for metastatic carcinoma of the prostate (FDA.gov).
HSV-Tk Nalotimagene carmaleucel HSV-Tk (Nalotimagene carmaleucel) is a gene therapy encoding the herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSV-tk), which when introduced together with ganciclovir (GCV), converts GCV to a potent cytotoxic drug that disrupts DNA replication and leads to cell death (PMID: 17327829).
Leuprolide Lupron Leuprorelin Lupron (leuprolide) is an agonist of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH), which results decreased testosterone production in males and decreased estradiol production in females, potentially leading to decreased growth of androgen-positive tumors (NCI Drug Dictionary).
Valacyclovir Valtrex Acicloftal Valacyclovir is the prodrug of acyclovir, which is an antiviral agent that functions by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase (NCI Drug Dictionary).
