Another prevention technique is to take the oral EGFR inhibitors on an empty stomach. Taking them with food will increase their bioavailability, thus causing heightened side effects. If symptoms persist physicians typically utilize a step-wise approach based on severity of the rash. They will first...
BRAF inhibitors may cause paradoxical activation ofMAP-kinase signaling and increased cell proliferation in BRAF wild-type cells; confirm evidence of BRAF V600E mutation status before initiation Based on its mechanism of action, dabrafenib may promote the growth and development of malignancies with acti...
