Pharmacology
Fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki is a HER2-directed antibody-drug conjugate consisting of a humanized anti-HER2 IgG1 antibody linked to a topoisomerase I inhibitor (DXd). After binding to HER2 on tumor cells, the drug undergoes internalization and lysosomal cleavage, releasing the membrane-permeable DXd that causes DNA damage and apoptotic cell death.
KRAS G12C inhibitor; sotorasib forms an irreversible, covalent bond with the unique cysteine of KRAS G12C, locking the protein in an inactive state that prevents downstream signaling without affecting wild-type KRAS, thereby blocking tumor cell growth and promoting apoptosis in KRAS G12C tumor cell lines.
