15
Q

Pentostatin

A

Adenosine Deaminase (ADA) inhibitor

Transition state analog mimic

Prevent breakdown of vidarabine and other nucleoside mimics

Adjunct therapy

16
Q

Xanthine oxidase inhibitor

A

Inhibit xanthine (from guanine and adenine) from oxidizing to Uric acid and causing gout

17
Q

Tumors with high EGFR expression

A

NSCLC - non-small cell lung cancer
Prostate
Gastric

Breast - HER2 human EGFR

18
Q

HER2

A

Human EGFR,

Active as homodimer

Herceptin (trastuzumab) flags for immune cell destruction and blocks downstream HER2 signaling by preventing dimerization of HER receptors

19
Q

Iressa and tarceva

A

EGFR kinase antagonists with common anikinoquinazoline skeleton

Affinity and compete for ATP-binding site

Tarceva has key water molecule interaction

20
Q

Gleevec

A

Bind and stabilize an inactive form

21
Q

Gleevec resistance mutation

A

Threonine 315 to isoleucine 315

ATP can displace gleevec easier

22
Q

Iressa resistance mutation

A

Threonine to methionine

23
Q

Nilotinib

A

Designed against amino acid resistance

Backup for gleevec resistant tumors

24
Q

Zolinza

A

HDAC inhibitor: Epigenetic target

Acetyl makes lysine neutral and loosens histone grip on DNA: more transcription of p53

Lysine is normally positive without Acetyl and binds tightly to DNA

25
Q

Interchangeable biosimilar

A

FDA determined safe for substitution

26
Q

Glycine

A

Only amino acid with no chirality

27
Q

Mizoribine

A

IMP dehydrogenase inhibitor

Blocks XMP/guanine nucleotide synthesis

28
Q

Mycophenolate

A

IMP dehydrogenase inhibitor and

GMP synthetase inhibitor

29
Q

ADA

A

Amine to double bond O

Deactivated purine antagonists

SCID = ADA deficiency & lymphocyte destruction

30
Q

Gout

A

Excess (AMP/GMP) purine catabolism

Or deficient HGPRT salvage pathway (inosine gets deaminated and later forms Uric acid)

31
Q

Von gierks disease

A

Increase G6phosphatase
Increase PRPP for purine biosynthesis
Excess Uric acid production

32
Q

Purine metabolism disorders

A

Increases PRPP synthetase
PRPP amido transferase
Defective HGPRT
Increase G6phosohatase

33
Q

Leech-Nyhan Syndrome

A

HGPRT deficiency

34
Q

Febuxostat

A

Selective XO inhibitor
Non purine

Less interactions and side effects than allopurinol

35
Q

Allopurinol

A

Nonselective XO inhibitor

Purine analog

36
Q

Rate limiting step of purine biosynthesis

A

PRPP to PRA

Inhibited by 6MPRP
