Antineoplastic Drugs 2 Flashcards
Vinblastine
Mitotic Spindle Poison prevents spindle formation. AE: It leads to “bone marrow suppression”, nausea and v, vesicant, neurotoxicity. Resistance: P-glycoprotein, changed tubulin. CYP 450 metabolism
Vinorelbine
Mitotic Spindle Poison prevents spindle formation. AE: It leads to “bone marrow suppression”, nausea and v, vesicant. Resistance: P-glycoprotein, changed tubulin. CYP 450 metabolism
Vincristine
Mitotic Spindle Poison prevents spindle formation. AE: It leads to “Neurotoxicity” bone marrow suppression, nausea and v, vesicant. Resistance: P-glycoprotein, changed tubulin. CYP 450 metabolism
Paclitaxel
Enhances spindle assembly prevents proper division. MDR due to increased P glycoprotein. AE: Hypersensitivity, BMS, N/V, Hypotension and arrhythmias. Ovarian and Breast cancer. Plant alkaloid. Cyp 450 metabolism.
Docataxel
Enhances spindle assembly prevents proper division. MDR due to increased P glycoprotein. AE: Hypersensitivity, BMS, N/V, Hypotension and arrhythmias. Ovarian and Breast cancer. Plant alkaloid. Cyp 450 metabolism.
Cabazitaxel
Enhances spindle assembly prevents proper division. MDR due to increased P glycoprotein. AE: Hypersensitivity, BMS, N/V, Hypotension and arrhythmias. Ovarian and Breast cancer. Plant alkaloid. Cyp 450 metabolism.
Ixabepilone
Antibiotic, enhances spindle assembly. NOT limited by MDR. Used in Anthracycline antibiotic resistant breast cancer. AE: cytotoxic, peripherial neuropathy, hypersensitivity, arrhythmias
L-aspariginase
Converts asparagine to aspartate in the blood. Cancer cells are unable to transport aspartate into the cell. usually given after Mtx AE: hypersensitivity reactions. Treats childhood ALL.
Alemtuzumab
Anti CD52 used to treat B chronic leukocyte leukemia
AE: tumor lysis syndrome, arrhytmias, birth defects, hypersensitivity reactions, cough
Ibritumomab 90Y
Anti CD 20 (B cell Non-Hodgkins lymphoma)
AE: tumor lysis syndrome, arrhytmias, birth defects, hypersensitivity reactions
Rituximab
Anti CD 20 (B cell Non-Hodgkins lymphoma)
AE: tumor lysis syndrome, arrhytmias, birth defects, hypersensitivity reactions tumor lysis syndrome
Tositumomab 131 I
Anti CD 20 (B cell Non-Hodgkins lymphoma)
AE: tumor lysis syndrome, arrhytmias, birth defects, hypersensitivity reactions
Dexamethasone
Synthetic Cortisol leads to the suppression of the immune system preventing Release of IL 1,2,6 and TNFa, and cytokines. Decreases Size of Lymph nodes, spleen. For cancer tx. give high dose pulses. AE: increased infection Cushings syndrome.
Prednisone
Synthetic Cortisol leads to the suppression of the immune system preventing Release of IL 1,2,6 and TNFa, and cytokines. Decreases Size of Lymph nodes, spleen. For cancer tx. give high dose pulses. AE: increased infection Cushings syndrome.
Cyclosporine
Immunosuppressive antibiotic used to prevent rejection after bone marrow trnspt. cyclosporin binds to cyclophilin inhibiting calcineurin from increasing IL2, which prevents cell proliferation.
Tacrolimus
Immunosuppressive antibiotic used to prevent rejection after bone marrow trnspt. cyclosporin binds to FK binding protein inhibiting calcineurin from increasing IL2, which prevents cell proliferation.
Everolimus
Immunosuppressive antibiotic used to suppress Blood vessel formation by inhibiting MTOR inhibiting angiogenesis and cell division.
Temirolimus
Immunosuppressive antibiotic used to suppress Blood vessel formation by inhibiting MTOR inhibiting angiogenesis and cell division
Denileukin Diftitux
IL2+ diptheria toxin. Decreases aby cells with an IL-2 receptor’s protein translation AE: tumor lysis syndrome, arrhytmias, birth defects, hypersensitivity reactions
IL- 2
Induce/ expand T cell response, Short half-life AE: Mild fever, chills, weight gain, shock, thrombocytopenia, shock, respiratory distress, coma and fatal hypertension.
