Pharmacology
Brentuximab vedotin is a CD30-directed antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) consisting of a chimeric IgG1 anti-CD30 antibody linked to MMAE, a microtubule-disrupting agent; upon binding to CD30-expressing tumor cells the ADC is internalized and MMAE is released via proteolytic cleavage, disrupting the microtubule network within the cell and inducing cell cycle arrest and apoptosis.
Beleodaq is a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor that causes accumulation of acetylated histones and other proteins in vitro, inducing cell cycle arrest and/or apoptosis of transformed cells with preferential cytotoxicity towards tumor cells compared to normal cells.
