Irinotecan: antineoplastic enzyme inhibitor

Actinomycin D: Antineoplastic agent that is a polypeptide antibiotic

Doxorubicin: An anthracycline topoisomerase inhibitor isolated from streptpmyces peucetius var. casesius

Ifosfamide: chemotherapeutic agent chemically related to the nitrogen mustards and is a synthetic analog of cyclophosphamide

Vincristine: anti neoplastic vinca alkaloid agent

Vinorelbine: vinca alkaloid with a role as an antineoplastic agent

Cyclophosphamide: Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent

Temozolomide: oral antineoplastic alkylating agent

radiotherapy: Ionising radiation

Regorafenib: Oral multi-kinase inhibitor that targets a broad range of angiogenic, stromal and oncogenic kinases, including vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEFGR) 1, 2 and 3, tyrosine kinase with immunoglobulin and epidermal growth factor homology domain 2 (TIE2), platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR), fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFR), c-KIT, RET, RAF-1 and BRAF (wild-type and V600E mutant).
