J Med Chem 48:7560-81. 2005..Unequivocal evidence, from mass spectral studies, indicates that these inhibitors form a covalent interaction with Cys-1045. One member of this series displays antitumor activity in an in vivo model...
Hybrids of the hemiasterlin analogue taltobulin and the dolastatins are potent antimicrotubule agentsArie Zask
Chemical and Screening Sciences and Oncology Research, Wyeth Research, 401 North Middletown Road, Pearl River, New York 10965, USA

MAC-321, a novel taxane with greater efficacy than paclitaxel and docetaxel in vitro and in vivoDeepak Sampath
Wyeth Research, Department of Oncology, Pearl River, NY 10965, USA
Mol Cancer Ther 2:873-84. 2003..MAC-321 was also highly effective when given as single i.v. dose. Our findings suggest that MAC-321, which is currently under clinical evaluation, may have broad therapeutic value...
