Abstract

Fosbretabulin tromethamine is a vascular disrupting agent, which is a type of drug that is designed to damage the vasculature (blood vessels) of cancer tumors, causing central necrosis. This drug showed activity against anaplastic thyroid cancer that was demonstrated in orthotopic xenograft models as well as in Phase I/II trials with or without carboplatin and paclitaxel combination therapy. In all of these studies, fosbretabulin was well tolerated.
