Xofigo

Xofigo > Xofigo (radium‑223 dichloride) is an α‑emitting radiopharmaceutical approved for treatment of bone‑predominant metastases in castration‑resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Mechanism of Action Radial mimicry of calcium: Radium‑223 substitutes for calcium at bone‑mineralization sites, concentrating in osteoblastic lesions. High‑energy α‑particles: Emit two ~5.5 MeV α‑particles that induce double‑strand DNA breaks within a 10–100 µm radius, selectively killing … Read more

Xiidra

Xiidra Mechanism of Action Cyclosporine A (0.05 %)—a lipid-soluble cyclosporine derivative formulated as a 5 % vehicle–termed or in a micro‑emulsion. Inhibits T‑cell activation by forming a complex with cyclophilin, thereby blocking calcineurin and preventing transcription of pro‑inflammatory cytokines (IL‑2, IFN‑γ, TNF‑α). Decreases ocular surface inflammation, restores tear film stability, and promotes conjunctival goblet‑cell density. Secondary neuroprotective … Read more
