Cabazitaxel (previously XRP-6258, tradename Jevtana) is a semi-synthetic derivative of a natural taxoid. It was developed by Sanofi-Aventis and was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of hormone-refractory prostate cancer on June 17, 2010. It is a microtubule inhibitor.
Cabazitaxel in combination with prednisone is a treatment option for hormone-refractory prostate cancer following or during docetaxel-based treatment.
Clinical trials
In a phase III trial with 755 men for the treatment of hormone-refractory prostate cancer, median survival was 15.1 months for patients receiving cabazitaxel versus 12.7 months for patients receiving mitoxantrone. Cabazitaxel was associated with more grade 3-4 neutropenia (81.7%) than mitoxantrone (58%).
