There are a number of different tyrosine kinases that encourage cancer cells to grow.Sorafenib blocks a number of protein kinases and is called a multi kinase inhibitor. It works in two ways.**It stopsSignals that tell cancer cells to grow **Cancel cells forming blood vessels, which they need to grow,Treatment that stops blood vessels forming is called anti angiogenesis treatment DoseSorafenib is a tablet take with a glass of water.It should take either an hr before eat or 2 hrs after. ![]() ![]() ![]() ADULT over 18 years, 400 mg twice daily Interaction*Antibacterial:plasma conc. of sorafenib reduced by rifampicin*Anticoagulants:sorafenib possibly enhances anticoagulant effect of coumarins*Antiepileptics:cytotoxics possibly reduce absorptionof phenytoin *Antipsychotics:avoid concomitant use of cytotoxicswith clozapine (increased risk of agranulocytosis *Cardiac Glycosides:cytotoxics reduce absorption of digoxin tablets *Cytotoxics: sorafenib possibly increases plasma conc.of doxorubicin and irinotecan, increases plasma concentration of docetaxel Pharmacokinetic data1-Bioavailability 29-49% 2-Protein binding 99,5% 3-Metabolism,Hepatic oxidation and glucuronidation (CYP3A4 mediated) 4-Half life 25-48hours 5-Excretion Fecal (77%) and renal (19%) Side effectCommon side effects **Diarrhoea **Hand-foot syndrome **rash, or red, dry itchy skin **Fatigue Hair thinning **Feeling sick **Raised blood pressure (hypertension) **Increased risk of bleeding Rare side effects ![]() **Breast tenderness and swelling because sorafenib may lower male sex hormone (testosterone) levels **Heart problems including chest pain **Bleeding of the stomach lining occurs in less than (1%) With this drug, some people have a temporary drop in the number of blood cells made by the bone marrow, leading to the following side effects **Increased risk of getting an infection from a drop in WBC **Tiredness and breathlessness due to a drop in RBC **Bruising more easily due to a drop in platelets Some of these side effects can be life threatening, particularly infections Other occasional side effects includeSkin flushing, Aching joints, Constipation , sore mouth, Indigestion, WeaknessPain Loss of appetite, Flu like symptoms A hoarse voice, Low mood A mild effect on the liver ![]() ![]()

موضوع قيم د/أيه -------------------- هو فعلاً غقار النيكسافار من الأدوية الحديثة ومن أوائل الأدوية التى تم أعتمادها فى علاج أورام الكبد مثل Hepatocellular Carcinoma بالأضافة لأستخدامه فى Renal Cell Carcinoma وأليه عمل العقار كمات ذكرتى Tyrosine Kinase inhibitor ==> Inhibit signal transduction pathway ===> Inhibit tumor growth وهذا ببساطة شديدة جداً ولا يعتبر العقار جديداً فى أليه عمله فقد سبقة الكثير من الغقاقير الأخرى التى تنضم فى نفس المجموعة ولكن سعر العقار مرتفع جدا كما أن تأثيره بشكل عام لا يمثل Treatment بالمعنى الحرفى للكلمه ولكنه يعتمد على منع تطور وتدهور المرض والحد من بعض أعراضه ولذلك لا يضع كثيرا من أطباء الأورام أمالهم عليه للعلاج الكامل مما قيد من أستخدامه فى مصر |
