Description

Cabazitaxel (JEVTANA®) is an antineoplastic agent belonging to the taxane class and is used to treat people with prostate cancer that has progressed despite treatment with docetaxel. It is prepared by semi-synthesis with a precursor extracted from yew needles (10-deacetylbaccatin III). Cabazitaxel (JEVTANA®) is a microtubule inhibitor. It binds to tubulin and promotes its assembly into microtubules while simultaneously inhibiting disassembly. This leads to the stabilization of microtubules, which results in the inhibition of mitotic and interphase cellular functions. The cell is then unable to progress further into the cell cycle, being stalled at metaphase, thus triggering apoptosis of the cancer cell.

Sample Use Guides

In Vivo Use Guide
JEVTANA® 25 mg/m2 administered every three weeks as a one-hour intravenous infusion in combination with oral prednisone 10 mg administered daily throughout JEVTANA® treatment.
Route of Administration: Intravenous
In Vitro Use Guide
Cabazitaxel and docetaxel were tested in vitro against the cancer cell line panel at concentrations from 0.01 to 0.1 uM and in vivo against a subset of the solid tumor xenograft models at a dose of 10 or 7.5 mg/kg on an every 4 days × 3 I.V. schedule. In vitro, both cabazitaxel and docetaxel had similar potency (median relative IC50 0.47 nM and 0.88 nM, respectively) and a similar activity profile, with Ewing sarcoma cells being significantly more sensitive to both agents. In vitro sensitivity to docetaxel inversely correlated with mRNA expression for ABCB1, but the correlation with ABCB1 expression was weaker for cabazitaxel. In vivo cabazitaxel demonstrated significantly greater activity than docetaxel in five of 12 tumor models, inducing regressions in six models compared with three models for docetaxel.
