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.
Amivantamab-vmjw is a bispecific antibody that binds EGFR and MET extracellular domains, disrupting ligand binding and receptor degradation, and targeting tumor cells for immune-mediated destruction via ADCC and trogocytosis.
