Paclitaxel (PTX), sold under the brand name Taxol among others, is a chemotherapy medication used to treat a number of types of cancer.[4] This includes ovarian cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, Kaposi sarcoma, cervical cancer, and pancreatic cancer.[4] It is given by injection into a vein.[4] There is also an albumin-bound formulation.[4]

Common side effects include hair loss, bone marrow suppression, numbness, allergic reactions, muscle pains, and diarrhea.[4] Other serious side effects include heart problems, increased risk of infection, and lung inflammation.[4] There are concerns that use during pregnancy may cause birth defects.[5][4] Paclitaxel is in the taxane family of medications.[6] It works by interference with the normal function of microtubules during cell division.[4]

Paclitaxel was first isolated in 1971 from the Pacific yew and approved for medical use in 1993.[7][8] It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines.[9] The wholesale cost in the developing world is about US$7.06–13.48 per 100 mg vial.[10] This amount in the United Kingdom costs the NHS about 66.85 GBP.[11] It has been made from precursors, and more recently through cell culture.[8]
