The discovery of the antineoplastic agent paclitaxel and its unique activity as a microtubule-stabilizing agent resulted in dramatic improvements in the treatment of breast, ovarian, and non-small cell lung cancers. Despite the potent antitumor activity of taxanes such as paclitaxel

Peripheral neuropathy is a serious, dose-limiting side effect of cancer treatment with microtubule-targeting drugs. Symptoms present in a "stocking-glove" distribution, with longest nerves affected most acutely, suggesting a length-dependent component to the toxicity. Axonal transport of ATP-producing mitochondria along neuronal

Hormonal therapies and single-agent sequential chemotherapeutic regimens are the standards of care for HER2- metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, treating patients with hormone-refractory and triple negative (TN) MBC remains challenging. We report the results of combined ixabepilone and carboplatin in
