Indibulin binds to a site on tubulin that is different from taxane- or Vinca alkaloid-binding
sites, destabilizing tubulin polymerization and inducing tumor cell cycle arrest and
apoptosis. This agent has been shown to be active against multidrug-resistant (MDR)
and taxane- resistant tumor cell lines.;
