Sagopilone
未知生产厂商
Sagopilone has been used in trials studying the treatment of Melanoma, Neoplasms, CNS Disease, Breast Cancer, and Breast Neoplasms, among others. It is a so-called fully synthetic epothilone and is the first such compound to be in clinical development to combat several forms of cancer. Epothilones are 16-member ring macrolides with antimicrotubule activity that share a similar mechanism of action to the taxanes but have demonstrated potent antiproliferative activity in several different multidrug-resistant and paclitaxel-resistant tumor cell lines in vitro and in vivo.

Epothilones are a new class of cytotoxic agents that induce tubulin polymerization. Sagopilone, the only fully synthetic, third-generation analogue of epothilone B, is a highly potent tubulin stabilizer that has shown substantial preclinical antitumor activity, including against taxane-resistant models.
