Description
In June 2010, the U.S. FDA approved cabazitaxel (also referred to as
XRP6258 and RPR 116258A) in combination with the steroid prednisone
for the treatment of metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer
(mCRPC) for patients who were previously treated with a docetaxelcontaining
regimen for late-stage disease.
Cabazitaxel is a semisynthetic analog of the
natural product taxol, which is isolated from the bark of the yew tree.
Cabazitaxel is a microtubule inhibitor that binds to the taxol-binding site of
tubulin. Similar to other tubulin inhibitors of the taxol class, cabazitaxel
inhibits microtubule disassembly resulting in mitotic blockade and cell
death. Docetaxel, also a semisynthetic taxol analog, was approved by the
FDA for the treatment of mCRPC in 2004. However, docetaxel is a substrate
for P-gp, which is thought to contribute to the constitutive and acquired
resistance of cancer cells to taxanes. Cabazitaxel has poor affinity for P-gp
and showed antitumor activity in preclinical in vitro studies and in vivo
tumor models that overexpress this protein. Cabazitaxel is synthesized on
a commercial scale from 10-deacetylbaccatin .

Uses
Cabazitaxel (Jevtana, XRP6258) is a semi-synthetic derivative of a natural taxoid. A novel semi-synthetic taxane with antitumor activity used for the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer. A microtubule inhibitor.
-
Clinical Use
Cabazitaxel was developed by Sanofi-Aventis as an intravenous injectable drug for the treatment of
hormone-refractory metastatic prostate cancer. As a microtubule inhibitor, cabazitaxel differs from docetaxel because it exhibits a much weaker affinity for P-glycoprotein (P-gp), an adenosine
triphosphate (ATP)-dependent drug efflux pump. Cancer cells that express P-gp become resistant
to taxanes, and the effectiveness of docetaxel can be limited by its high substrate affinity for P-gp.
Clinical studies confirmed that cabazitaxel retains activity in docetaxel-resistant tumors. Common
adverse events with cabazitaxel include diarrhea and neutropenia. Cabazitaxel in combination with
prednisone is an important new treatment option for men with docetaxel-refractory metastatic CRPC
(castration-resistant prostate cancer).
