Pharmacology
ABRAXANE is a microtubule inhibitor that promotes assembly and stabilization of microtubules from tubulin dimers, inhibiting the normal dynamic reorganization of the microtubule network essential for vital interphase and mitotic cellular functions.
Sevabertinib is a reversible kinase inhibitor of HER2 (ERBB2) that also exhibits activity against EGFR; it inhibits HER2 phosphorylation and downstream signaling in cancer cells harboring HER2 alterations and demonstrates antitumor activity in NSCLC models with activating HER2 exon 20 mutations.
