General information

Class/mechanism: Non-taxane microtubule dynamics inhibitor. Inhibits the growth phase of microtubules and aggregates tubulin into inactive aggregates. Does not affect the shortening phase. Disruption of mitotic spindles interferes with mitosis, leads to G2/M cell-cycle block, and apoptotic cell death.[1][2][3]
Route: IV
Extravasation: no information

For conciseness and simplicity, HemOnc.org currently will focus on treatment regimens and not list information such as: renal/hepatic dose adjustments, metabolism (including CYP450), excretion, monitoring parameters (although this will be considered for checklists), or manufacturer. 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]
