Mechanism of action

This regimen pairs gemcitabine, a nucleoside analog that disrupts DNA replication, with oxaliplatin, a platinum-based agent that forms DNA crosslinks. Together, these agents work synergistically to prevent cancer cell proliferation and survival. The combination is designed to improve efficacy over single-agent therapy in solid tumors.
