Docetaxel and cyclophosphamide are chemotherapeutic agents used in the treatment of various types of cancer. Docetaxel, a taxane, works by inhibiting the microtubule structures within the cell, which are essential for cell division. This action leads to cell death, particularly in rapidly dividing cancer cells. Cyclophosphamide is an alkylating agent that interferes with the DNA replication process, preventing the cancer cells from multiplying.
