Taiho Pharma to roll out Abraxane

Taiho Pharmaceutical is set to introduce Abraxane IV Infusion 100mg, an antineoplastic for injectable suspension (paclitaxel albumin-bound particles for injectable suspension) on 24 September 2010.

Taiho Pharma said that Abraxane features improved efficacy and safety as well as easier administration compared to solvent-based paclitaxel.

Originally, Abraxane was developed by Abraxis BioScience as a novel paclitaxel formulation for breast cancer treatment.

The US Food and Drug Administration has granted approval for the drug in January 2005.
