Erlotinib | Tarceva | CP358774 | EGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 54 EGFR Inhibitor 1st gen 3 | Tarceva (erlotinib) is a first-generation EGFR inhibitor, which is FDA approved for non-small cell lung carcinoma patients with EGFR exon 19 deletions and/or EGFR L858R and in combination with gemcitabine for patients with advanced pancreatic cancer (FDA.gov; PMID: 25302162). |
Fluorouracil | Adrucil | 5-FU | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Adrucil (fluorouracil) is an antimetabolite chemotherapeutic agent, which interferes with DNA and RNA synthesis thereby preventing cancer cell growth and is FDA approved for colorectal, breast, stomach, and pancreatic cancer (FDA.gov). |
Leucovorin | Wellcovorin | Calcium folinate|Calcium citrovorum factor|folinic acid | Chemotherapy - Antimetabolite 14 | Wellcovorin (leucovorin) is a metabolite of folate that enhances the efficacy of fluoruracil (PMID: 32490554). |
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). |
Trastuzumab | Herceptin | Anti HER2 | HER2 (ERBB2) Antibody 57 | Herceptin (trastuzumab) is a monoclonal antibody, which binds ERBB2 (HER2) to induce tumor cellular cytotoxicity (PMID: 17611206). Herceptin (trastuzumab) is FDA approved for HER2-overexpressing (or amplification) breast cancer, gastric adenocarcinoma, and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (FDA.gov). |
