Health EducationRamucirumab 認識化療藥品Ramucirumab
2024/1/22Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that binds to VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR2) and blocks the binding of VEGF-A, VEGF-C and VGEF-D. By blocking the activation of VEGFR2, ramucirumab inhibits the development of new blood vessels and helps cut off the blood supply, thereby reducing oxygen and nutrients to the tumor. This may interfere with cancer cell growth.
Rituximab SC 認識化療藥品Rituximab SC
2024/1/22MabThera®SC is a combination of rituximab and hyaluronidase. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody that targets to a protein called CD20 on the surface of white blood cells known as B lymphocytes. When rituximab attaches to these cells, the abnormal growth of the B lymphocytes is stopped and triggers cell death. Hyaluronidase is added to increase absorption of rituximab under the skin.
Temsirolimus 認識標靶藥品Temsirolimus
2024/1/22Temsirolimus is a kinase inhibitor which inhibits the mTOR kinase. The mTOR kinase is responsible for cell growth and proliferation. By blocking this kinase, temsirolimus can slow the growth of cancer cells.
Topotecan 認識化療藥品Topotecan
2024/1/22Topotecan is a synthetic analogue of camptothecin, a nature product derived from the Camptotheca acuminata, also called the happy tree. Topotecan blocks the action of an enzyme in cells called topoisomerase I, which is necessary for cell replication and tumor growth. Blocking this enzyme leads to breaks in the DNA, which leads to cancer cell death.
Trastuzmab 認識化療藥品Trastuzmab
2024/1/22Trastuzumab is a monoclonal antibody which targets the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) on cells. HER2 is found in large amounts on the surface of some cancer cells, resulting in tumors growing more quickly. By attaching to the HER2, trastuzumab blocks HER2 from receiving growth signals, preventing further cancer growth and slowing cancer progression.
Trastuzumab SC 認識化療藥品Trastuzumab SC
2024/1/22Herceptin®SC is a combination of trastuzumab and hyaluronidase. Trastuzumab is a monoclonal antibody which targets the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) on cells. HER2 is found in large amounts on the surface of some cancer cells, resulting in tumors growing more quickly.
