Tamoxifen Nolvadex, hormonal therapy
Tamoxifen 10-20 mg QD or BID. 10 mg QD for prevention.
Tamoxifen Nonsteroidal anti estrogen SERM. DDI with paxil, Prozac.
Tamoxifen thromboembolism, endometrial cancer risk, risk of bleeding with warfarin, osteoporosis, retinopathy, WG, HA
Tamoxifen need routine eye exams
Tamoxifen menopausal symptoms, tumor flare
Raloxifene Evista, hormonal therapy (prevention only)
Raloxifene 60 mg PO QD
Raloxifene SERM, only for prevention
Raloxifene menopausal symptoms, tumor flare, but benefit in osteoporosis
Anastrozole arimidex, hormonal therapy
Anastrozole nonsteroidal aromatase inhibitor
Anastrozole musculoskeletal disorder (arthralgia, myalgia), osteoporosis
Letrozole Femara, hormonal therapy
Letrozole musculoskeletal disorder (arthralgia, myalgia), osteoporosis
Exemestane Aromasin, hormonal therapy
Exemestane musculoskeletal disorder (arthralgia, myalgia), osteoporosis
Toremifene Farestron, SERM
Fulvestrant Faslodex, estrogen receptor downregulator, IM
Goserelin Zoladex, LHRH analog.
Doxorubicin Adria
Doxorubicin potential binder of iron, starts creating cardiomyopathy
Doxorubicin myelosuppression (Dose limiting), red urine, mucositis, extravasions
Doxorubicin overdose treat with dexrazoxane, DMSO
Doxorubicin inhibit topoisomerase II. Lots of free radicals - starts necrotizing muscle
Epirubicin similar to doxorubicin, less toxic on the heart
Cyclophosphamide Cytoxan, alkylating agent
Cyclophosphamide myelosuppression (DLT), leukopenia, hemorrhagic cystitis (clumps of blood in urine)
Methotrexate given with leucovorin, PO, IV, or IT
Methotrexate caution in renal dysfunction, prone to 3rd spacing. Keep patient hydrated though
Carboxypeptidase glucarpidase - breaks mtx down
Methotrexate BMS (Dose limiting), mucositig, renal impairment
5-FU Continuous infusion TS inhibition
5-FU Bolus RNA incorporation
5-FU Continuous infusion Less BMS, mucositis (DLT). Ice chips. Hand-foot syndrome worse
5-FU Bolus More BMS (DLT), mucositis, Less Hand-foot syndrome
5-FU significant DDI with warfarin
Capecitabine Xeloda
Capecitabine oral prodrug of 5FU, bypasses DPD.
Capecitabine take on full stomach within 30 minutes of finishing a meal. Don't take with fruit juices. Both renally and hepatically eliminated.
Capecitabine Hand-foot syndrome dose limiting toxicity
Paclitaxel Taxol or Abraxae
Docetaxel Taxotere
Paclitaxel dose adjustment in liver impairment, elevated bili. If giving with cisplatin, give this first
Docetaxel dose adjustment in liver impairment, elevated bili
Paclitaxel increased neutropenia with infusion, hypersensitivity, cardiac abnormalities, myalgia. Need to use cremophor
Docetaxel edema, skin rash, nail change
Docetaxel premedicate with dexamethasone only. This is done to minimize fluid retention
Paclitaxel premedicate with Benadryl, dexa, h2. Need to filter
Abraxane paclitaxel bound to albumin -> lower hypersensitivity. Can use PVC bag with this. expensive
Cisplatin Platinol
Cisplatin Pt surrounded by Cl, must be mixed in NS, need pre and post hydration
Cisplatin DDI with nephrotoxins and ototoxins (loop diuretics)
Cisplatin Neurotoxicity, nephrotoxicity are dose limiting
Carboplatin Paraplatin
Carboplatin Pt, no Cl. Replaced by carboxycyclobutanes. Can be put in NS or D5W
Carboplatin slower, less extensive plasma protein binding. Renal adjustments.
Carboplatin uses the calvert EQ. AUC X (GFR+25)
Carboplatin BMS is dose limiting
Trastuzumab Herceptin
Trastuzumab myocardial toxicity, LVEF needs to be monitored q3mo. Some injection site reaction, need to pretreat with Benadryl, dexamethasone, and/or epinephrine
Lapatinib Tykerb
Lapatinib advanced or metastatic breast cancer, failed anthracycline, taxane, Herceptin
Lapatinib can be used with 5FU (capecitabine too) for additive effect, synergistic effect with trastuzumab
Lapatinib needs to be taken 1 hour before or 1 hour after a meal
Lapatinib cardiac effects, severe diarrhea, pulmonary tox
Eribulin Halaven, for metastatic breast cancer
Eribulin nontaxane microtubule inhibitor, halichondrin B analog
Eribulin not compatible with dextrose
Eribulin BMS (DLT), Peripheral neuropathy, QT prolongation, GI tox
Pamidronate Aredia
Pamidronate 90 mg IV over 2 hr q 3-4 weeks
Zoledronate Zometa
Zoledronate Renally adjusted (crCl 30-39 3 mg, 40-49 3.3, 50-59 3.5, 60+ 4mg)
Zoledronate 4 mg IV over 15 minutes q 3-4 weeks
Zoledronate 5 mg IV over 15 minutes (Reclast). Or 4 mg IV over 15 minutes q 6 months
Pamidronate osteonecrosis of jaw, tumor flare, myalgias
Zoledronate osteonecrosis of jaw, tumor flare, myalgias
Denosumab Xgeva (solid tumor), Prolia (osteoporosis) - antibody targeting RANKL
Denosumab prevention of aromatase inhibitor-induced osteoporosis
Denosumab nephrotoxicity, hypoPhos, hypoCa, osteonecrosis of jaw
Denosumab 120 mg SQ q 4 weeks (Xgeva)
Denosumab 60 mg SQ q 6 months (Prolia)
