Cancer Drug Information Summaries

This list includes more than 100 cancer drug information summaries from NCI. The summaries provide consumer-friendly information about cancer drugs and drug combinations.

Summaries for individual cancer drugs cover the uses of these drugs, research results, possible side effects, approval information, and ongoing clinical trials. The list includes brand and generic names for the cancer drugs.

Summaries for cancer drug combinations are listed by abbreviation or common name and are shown in capital letters. Each summary gives a list of the cancer drugs that make up the combination and explains what the combination is used for. It also has links to summaries for individual cancer drugs in the combination.
