Hematology (Final Exam) Flashcards
genes associated with cancer development that have normal cellular counterparts or proto-oncogenes
oncogenes
genes coding for proteins that deter cancer development through regulation of cell growth and division. during cancer development, genetic events may occur that inactivate these genes
tumor suppressor genes
these drugs are used to treat _____
Imatinib (GLEEVEC)
Nilotinib (TASIGNA)
Bosutinib (BOSULIF)
Dasatinib (SPRYCEL)
Ponatinib (ICLUSIG)
Asciminib (SCEMBLIX)
chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML)
I never believed daneshtalabs pharmacology anyway
this is used for treatment of newly diagnosed BCR/ABL-1 positive CML (Chronic phase) or treatment go BCR/ABL1-positive CML (Chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast phase) in patients resistance to interferon therapy.
Imatinib (GLLEVEC)
true or false: Imatinib (GLEEVEC) is effective for T315i mutation
false
this is used for treatment of newly diagnosed BCR/ABL1-positive CML (Chronic phase) or treatment of BCR/ABL1-positive CML (Chronic phase or accelerated phase) in adult patients resistant to prior tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. 30x stronger than Imiatinib due to better fit of molecule to binding site
Nilotinib (TASIGNA)
true or false: Nilotinib (TASIGNA) is effective for T315i mutation
false
this is used for treatment of newly diagnose BCR/ABL1-positive CML (chronic phase) or treatment of BCR/ABL1-positive CML (chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast phase) with resistance or intolerance to prior therapy (e.g. Imatinib). 30x stronger than Imatinib due to better fit of molecule to binding site
Bosutinib (BOSULIF)
true or false: Bosutinib (BOSULIF) is effective for T315i mutation
false
this is used for treatment of BCR/ABL1-positive CML (chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast phase) with resistance/intolerance to prior therapy (e.g. imatinib). 325x more potent than Imatinib due to MUCH better fit of molecule into binding site
Dasatinib (SPRYCEL)
true or false: Dasatinib (SPRYCEL) is effective for T315i mutation
false
this is used to treat CML (Chronic phase, accelerated phase or blast phase) where no other TKI therapy is indicated or treatment of T315i-positive CML (CP, AP or BP)
Ponatinib (ICLUSIG)
true or false: Ponatinib (ICLUSIG) is effective for T315i mutation
true
this is used to treat BCR/ABL1-positive CML (chronic phase) previously treated with two or more TKIs or BCR/ABL1-positive CML (chronic phase) with the T315i mutation. less toxicity compared to others
Asciminib (SCEMBLIX)
true or false: Asciminib (SCEMBLIX) is effective for T315i mutation
true
this group of drugs are used to treat _____________
Lenalidomide (REVLIMID)
Imatinib (GLEEVEC)
myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS)
*Leftover Icecream
this is used to treat low or intermediate risk MDS associated with a deletion 5q cryogenic abnormality with or without additional cytogenetic abnormalities
Lenalidomide (REVLIMID)
