Immune checkpoint inhibitors MOA - correct answersPrevent cancer cells from turning off T cells -->
allows T cells to infiltrate a tumor and stop it from growing
Immune checkpoint inhibitors initially cause tumors to swell, making it appear as if the tumor is growing.
This is called _____________ - correct answersPseudoprogression
2 main types of cancer vaccines - correct answersPreventative/prophylactic
Treatment/therapeutic
Nonspecific immunotherapies MOA - correct answersStimulating the immune system in a general way,
hopefully leading to a better immune response against cancer cells
3 major phases of cell division: - correct answersInterphase
Mitotic phase
Cytokinesis
3 steps of interphase: - correct answersFirst growth phase (G1)
Synthesis phase (S phase)
Second growth phase (G2)
4 phases of mitosis: - correct answersProphase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
, Innate immunity: - correct answersNon-specific response, either:
1. Barrier (skin, mucous membranes, flora of skin/gut)
2. Cellular components (phagocytes, natural killer cells, granulocytes, macrophages)
Adaptive immunity: - correct answersFollows innate immunity if unsuccessful. Memory immunity,
including:
1. Humoral immunity (production of antibodies or immunoglobulins)
2. Cell mediated immunity (dependent upon T cells)
3. Regulatory T -cells (prevent autoimmune reactions and limit inflammatory responses)
Define mutations - correct answersVariations in the nucleotide sequence of a gene
3 main goals of treatment: - correct answersCure
Control
Palliation
Define neoadjuvant therapy - correct answersTreatment is given prior to surgery to shrink the tumor
Define adjuvant therapy - correct answersAdditional cancer treatment given after the primary treatment
to lower the risk that the cancer reoccur
Define conditioning/preparative therapy - correct answersTreatments used to prepare a patient for
stem cell transplantation
2 types of conditioning therapies: - correct answersMyeloablative
Nonmyeloablative
Define dose density - correct answersDrug dose per unit of time
Define dose intensity - correct answersAmount of drug delivered over time
