This review describes the mechanism of action - inhibition of microtubules - and the most important mechanisms of resistance for vinca alkaloids, taxanes and epothilones. Resistance is a major problem in vinca and taxane chemotherapy and arises in most cases from overexpression of efflux pumps that transport the drugs out of the cancer cells and from modifications of the target, the microtubules, by overexpression of tubulin isotypes or by attachment of proteins to the ends of the microtubules so that the target is no longer recognized by the drugs. In some cases, however, this process can have the opposite effect, leading to sensitization, e.g., for vinca alkaloids in cases where taxanes are not or no longer effective. The link between resistance due to efflux pumps and the pharmacokinetics and metabolism of the drugs is also covered. Other types of resistance that are addressed include detoxification of drugs within the cancer cell and blockade of apoptosis, post-translational modifications of microtubules and other protein pathways, micro-RNAs, induction of oncogenes, and cancer stem cells, which, taken together, offer particularly multifold possibilities for preventing drug activity. The use of biomarkers for the prediction of clinical outcome and for the direction of future therapy is also addressed.
