==Overview==
==Overview==
This is a '''list of chemotherapeutic agents''' (also known as '''cytotoxic agents''') that are known to be of use in [[chemotherapy]] for [[cancer]].  This list is organized by type of agent, although the subsections are not necessarily definitive and are subject to revision. Each drug is listed once (at present), though it might fall in more than one subsection. A full alphabetical listing is included after the categorical listing.
This is a '''list of chemotherapeutic agents''' that are known to be of use in [[chemotherapy]] for [[cancer]]. A full alphabetical listing is included after the categorical listing.


The agents in this list are often combined into [[chemotherapy regimens]] for polychemotherapy (combination chemotherapy). For example, the [[CHOP]] regimen consists of [[cyclophosphamide]], [[hydroxydaunorubicin]] (doxorubicin), [[vincristine]] (Oncovin), and prednisone.  
The agents in this list are often combined into [[chemotherapy regimens]] for polychemotherapy (combination chemotherapy).


Besides chemotherapy, medical oncology ([[pharmacotherapy]] for cancer) includes several noncytotoxic classes of therapy, such as [[hormonal therapy (oncology)|hormonal therapy]] and [[targeted therapy]] (biologic therapy). Those agents are described in the relevant articles.
