Clinical Trials

Numerous clinical trials evaluate vinorelbine ditartrate across Phase 1 through Phase 3 studies for oncological indications including advanced breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, rhabdomyosarcoma, and malignant mesothelioma. Sponsored by academic medical centers and biopharmaceutical entities such as Seagen Inc., Taiwan Liposome Company, and City of Hope Medical Center, these investigations examine novel combination regimens and liposomal formulations. Current trial statuses range from actively recruiting and completed to terminated or withdrawn.

Check the Vinorelbine Ditartrate (KW-2307) product page for in-depth specifications, including solubility, stock solutions, MOA, and working concentrations.

Compliance for Clinical Use

Mechanism and Biochemical Profile

Vinorelbine ditartrate selectively binds to tubulin, disrupting dynamic microtubule assembly and preventing proper mitotic spindle formation during cell division. This inhibition arrests the cell cycle at the G2/M phase and induces apoptosis, thereby suppressing tumor proliferation in clinical trial conditions such as metastatic breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer.

Appendix RUO and cGMP Quality Standards

Quality Dimension RUO (Research Use Only) cGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice)
Clinical Applicability Prohibited in human clinical trials or medical diagnostics. Mandatory for human clinical trials (Phase I–III) and therapies.
