Anti Cancer Drugs

1. Anti-cancer drugs can act on the cell cycle, be independent of the cell cycle, or be anti-metabolites. 2. Drugs that act on the cell cycle include taxanes and vinca alkaloids. Anti-metabolites like methotrexate and pemetrexed inhibit DNA synthesis. 3. Drugs independent of the cell cycle include alkylating agents like cisplatin and anticancer antibiotics except bleomycin.
