Microtubule stabilizing agents (MSAs) are some of the most widely used and effective therapies availablefor the treatment of solid tumors. However, their utility is compromised by innate and acquired drugresistance. The taccalonolides (taccas) are a mechanistically unique class of MSAs that circumventmultiple clinically relevant forms of drug resistance. Multiple potent taccas identified by our laboratorieshave effective antitumor activity in drug sensitive and resistant in vivo models but suffer from a narrowtherapeutic window.
