  • Standard Chemotherapy

    -acts on all rapidly dividing normal and cancerous cells

    -cytotoxic

  • Targeted therapeutics

    -act on specific molecular targets that are associated with cancer

    -designed to interact with a defined molecular target

    -cytostatic

    -represented by small molecules or biologics

  • cytostatic

    -block tumor cell growth or proliferation

  • D

    What cancer affects men the most?

    a) lung & bronchus

    b) colon & rectum

    c) breast

    d) prostate

  • C

    Which cancer affects women the most?

    a) lung & bronchus

    b) colon & rectum

    c) breast

    d) thyroid

  • A

    Which cancer has the highest mortality rate?

    a) lung & bronchus

    b) colon & rectum

    c) breast

    d) thyroid

  • pancreatic, liver, lung, esophagus

    What are the most lethal cancers? Order from most lethal to least.

  • In situ

    -early cancer that is present only in the layer of cells in which it began

  • Localized

    -cancer that is limited to the organ in which it began, without evidence of spread

  • Regional

    -cancer that spread beyond the original (primary) site to nearby lymph nodes or organs and tissues.

  • Distant

    -cancer that has spread from the primary site to distant organs or distant lymph nodes

  • Cell competition

    a term used to describe when cancer cells proliferate and kill surrounding wild-type cells via apoptosis so that the total cell number does not change.

  • capecitabine (xeldoa) ; Carboxlesterase; 5-fu

    __________ is the prodrug or inactive form. It is metabolized by _______ into it's active form ______________.

  • 1-5%; DPD; FUH2

    What percentage of 5-FU is converted in the body? What enzyme converts in into its inactive metabolite? What is the inactive metabolite?

  • DPYD; rate-limiting

    _________ gene encodes dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), an enzyme that catalyzes the ______________ step in fluoropyrimidine metabolism.

  • True

    The FDA-approved drug label for 5-fluorouracil states that no dose has been proven safe in individuals with absent DPD activity. T/F?

  • 1 normal function + 1 no function allele or 1 decreased function; 2 decreased function alleles

    DPYD intermediate metabolizer

  • 2 no function alleles; 1 no function + 1 decreased function

    DPYD poor metabolizer

  • SERMs, growth inhibitor, prodrug,

    Tamoxifen

    - drug class

    -active or prodrug

  • HR+; pre & post menopausal women

    Tamoxifen is used for the treatment of both early and advanced ______ and _____________.

  • ER+ & HER2-

    What groups do we have targeted therapeutics for in breast cancer patients?

  • prevents ER signaling in cancer cells by binding to ER- resulting in receptor dimerization and causing an inactive complex; results in decreased ER signaling

    Explain tamoxifen moa.
