Overview

AZD6918 + pemetrexed is an investigational combination therapy studied in oncology, specifically for its potential in treating advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). AZD6918 is an experimental drug developed by AstraZeneca and tested in combination regimens with established chemotherapeutics, including pemetrexed. Pemetrexed is a folate antimetabolite chemotherapy agent that inhibits multiple enzymes involved in folate metabolism, thus inhibiting DNA synthesis and cell replication. The rationale for combining AZD6918, whose detailed mechanism is not fully described in public sources but is being developed by AstraZeneca, with pemetrexed is to enhance antitumor efficacy by targeting complementary pathways in cancer cell proliferation[3][1][2].
