Is sorafenib a chemotherapy drug?
No, sorafenib is not classified as a chemotherapy drug. Sorafenib Cost is a targeted therapy drug, specifically a tyrosine kinase inhibitor. It works by blocking certain enzymes (tyrosine kinases) involved in cancer cell proliferation and angiogenesis (the formation of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow).
Chemotherapy drugs, on the other hand, generally target rapidly dividing cells and are not specifically designed to inhibit particular molecular pathways. Sorafenib's targeted approach is different from the broader, less specific mechanism of traditional chemotherapy.
