Pralatrexate 認識化療藥品Pralatrexate

Pralatrexate 認識化療藥品Pralatrexate

Pralatrexate is classified as an anticancer antimetabolites. This drug inhibits DNA and RNA synthesis, thus stopping cell replication and eventually cause cell death. This cell damage slows or stops the growth of cancer cells in your body.

Ramucirumab 認識化療藥品Ramucirumab

Ramucirumab 認識化療藥品Ramucirumab

Ramucirumab 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

Rituximab SC 認識化療藥品Rituximab SC

MabThera®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

Temsirolimus 認識標靶藥品Temsirolimus

Temsirolimus 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

Topotecan 認識化療藥品Topotecan

Topotecan 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

Trastuzmab 認識化療藥品Trastuzmab

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. 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

Trastuzumab SC 認識化療藥品Trastuzumab SC

Herceptin®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.

Idarubicin 認識化療藥品 Idarubicin

Idarubicin 認識化療藥品 Idarubicin

Idarubicin is classified as an anthracyline antibiotic. This medicine inhibits DNA synthesis by producing DNA cross-links which halt cell replication and eventually cause cell death. This cell damage slows or stops the growth of cancer cells in the body.

Introduction to Radiation Therapy 放射線治療簡介

Introduction to Radiation Therapy 放射線治療簡介

Radiation therapy transmits via the form of photon or high-speed particles, using higher-energy radiation to treat tumor or certain diseases. Radiation therapy is also commonly known as the “ radiotherapy ”

FAQ for Radiation Therapy 放射線治療常見疑慮澄清

FAQ for Radiation Therapy 放射線治療常見疑慮澄清

Radiation therapy has been proved to have long-term curative effect on many malignant tumors ( i.e. nasopharyngeal carcinoma and cervical cancer ).
