Afinitor (everolimus; Novartis) is an orally available analog of the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), which mediates the signal transduction pathways required for cell cycle progression from G1 to S phase.
Afrezza (inhaled human insulin; Sanofi) is a drug-device combination product consisting of an ultra-rapid-acting human insulin for oral inhalation, approved for use in the US for the treatment of type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
Afstyla is a single-chain recombinant factor VIII (rfVIII) product developed by CSL Behring to have a longer duration of action than standard rfVIII. Endogenously produced fVIII consists of a light chain and a heavy chain fused via a metal ion bridge.
Aggrenox (Boehringer Ingelheim/GlaxoSmithKline/Bayer) capsules contain two active ingredients, acetylsalicylic acid and extend-release dipyridamole.
AGS-003 (Argos Therapeutics/Kyowa Hakko Kirin) is a cancer vaccine in development for the first-line treatment of metastatic renal cell cancer (RCC) in combination with Sutent (sunitinib; Pfizer).
lecensa is a second-generation ALK inhibitor developed by Roche and Chugai. In some NSCLC
patients, abnormal ALK configuration leads to the production of proteins that promote and maintain
the malignant behavior of cancer cells (Soda et al., 2008).
Alimta is an antifolate antineoplastic agent that exerts its action by disrupting folate-dependent metabolic processes essential for cell replication.
Aliqopa (copanlisib; Bayer) is a small molecule phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitor with high selectivity for the p110-alpha/delta catalytic subunits. The PI3K pathway is crucial for normal B-cell development, and is subverted by follicular lymphoma (FL) to promote survival and growth.
ALKS 3831 is an orally available, fixed-dose combination of samidorphan (ALKS 33) and olanzapine being developed by Alkermes.
ALKS 5461 (Alkermes) is a fixed-dose combination of buprenorphine, a mu opioid receptor partial agonist and kappa opioid receptor antagonist, and samidorphan (ALKS 33), which is a proprietary opioid modulator.
ALKS 8700 is an oral monomethyl fumarate molecule being developed for the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis.
Alofisel (darvadstrocel; TiGenix/Takeda) is a suspension of allogeneic expanded adipose-derived stem cells via intralesional injection.
Alpelisib is a p110-alpha isoform-specific PI3K inhibitor. PI3K signaling plays a fundamental role in tumorigenesis, governing cell proliferation, survival, and motility, as well as angiogenesis.
Biogen and Swedish Orphan Biovitrum co-developed Alprolix (recombinant factor IX [rfIX] Fc fusion protein) for the treatment of hemophilia B. The therapy is a recombinant protein consisting of a single fIX fused with the dimeric Fc region of immunoglobulin G-1.
Alunbrig (brigatinib; Takeda) is a dual anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor.
