PHARMA anti Cancer Drugs Flashcards
Determines the maximum growth rate of a tumr, not drug sensitivity
Cell cycle time
Proteins in control of cell growth
Class i - growth factors Class ii - Receptors for gf and hormones Class iii - Intracellular signal transducers Class iv - Nuclear transcription factors Class v - Cell cycle control proteins
2 ways to classify drugs
1) cell cycle specificity
2) mechanism of action

Alkylating agents MOA
Nucleotides to DNA
Attachment of alkyl groups to DNA bases to form fragmented DNA s
Can also form cross bridges and cause mispairing
With direct vessicant effects
Alkylating agents esp nitrogen mustards.. Can damage tissues so give drug very slowly
Alkylating agents na irritant

Dacarbazine
Cyclophosphamide clinical use
Breast, leukemias
Chlorambucil
