pubmed:abstractText |
Paclitaxel (Taxol) is the first of a new class of cytotoxic agents with activity against tumors resistant to other drugs. For clinical use, paclitaxel is currently formulated in a vehicle of 50% ethanol and 50% polyethoxylated surfactant Cremophor EL (Cremophor). We have previously shown that Cremophor will block the P-glycoprotein drug efflux pump responsible for the multidrug-resistant phenotype. Overexpression of P-glycoprotein is one mechanism of in vitro resistance to a number of currently used cytotoxic agents including paclitaxel.
