FDA approved 8/9/2012. Also known as vincristine sulfate liposome injection.

General information

Class/mechanism: Vinca alkaloid which causes cell cycle arrest in metaphase and inhibits mitosis. Vincristine stabilizes the spindle apparatus by binding to tubulin, alters microtubule structure and function, and inhibits chromosome separation. Marqibo is a formulation of vincristine sulfate that is encapsulated in sphingomyelin/cholesterol liposomes (Optisomes), which are hypothesized to provide improved tissue drug penetration and reduced toxicity.[1][2][3][4]
Route: IV
Extravasation: irritant

Instead, for the most current information, please refer to your preferred pharmacopeias such as Micromedex, Lexicomp, UpToDate (courtesy of Lexicomp), or the prescribing information.[1]
