Pharmacology
Carfilzomib is a tetrapeptide epoxyketone proteasome inhibitor that irreversibly binds to the N-terminal threonine-containing active sites of the 20S proteasome within the 26S proteasome, producing antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects in hematologic and solid tumor cells.
Selinexor reversibly inhibits exportin 1 (XPO1), blocking nuclear export of tumor suppressor proteins and oncogenic mRNAs, causing nuclear accumulation of tumor suppressors, downregulation of oncoproteins such as c-myc and cyclin D1, cell cycle arrest, and apoptosis of cancer cells.
