taxoids การใช้

• The taxoids are more potent, and carry more side effects, than tamoxifen and other similar estrogen-blockers.
• The taxoids class and the taxanes class both include paclitaxel ( trade names Taxol, Abraxane, Onxol, Nov-Onxol ) and docetaxel ( trade names Taxotere, Docecad ).
• Taxoids are usually treated as synonymous with taxanes; for example, a major medical dictionary defines the two terms with the same definition phrasing, and in another the phrasing varies slightly but conveys nearly identical meaning.
• Other available and experimental drugs for breast cancer, like Zeneca Inc .'s blockbuster product tamoxifen, are used as a first-line treatment for advanced breast cancer and work differently than the so-called taxoids, Taxol and Tamoxifen.
