How 10-Dehydroepothilone D works
Epothilones are highly potent microtubulin stabilizing compounds with a similar mechanism of action to taxanes and broad applicability in a wide range of tumors. Epothilones are active in both taxane-sensitive and taxane-resistant cancers and have demonstrated low susceptibility to tumor resistance mechanisms.
