| The brand name is Abraxane, the NDA name was ABI-007, but I'm having a hard
time getting the generic....
It sounds like she's saying nabpaclitaxel which I get ONE hit on at Google
but I can't find it anywhere else and just wanted a second or third opinion;
she's saying nab or mab or something along those lines. Thanks.

It's just paclitaxel, according to Abraxane.com. It's in that tiny skinny
print under Abraxane in the upper left hand corner. If you squint just
right, you can read it.

| Well, this just got approved apparently, and I do get a hit for the
nabpaclitaxel, but just one. That's the one problem I have with the type
work I do...I get drug names that either aren't approved yet or are so new
that no one's heard of them yet. And I know Abraxane is paclitaxel too, but
apparently this ABI-007 is a combo but still using Abraxane. Oh well,
flagged it is. Thanks, Sandi.
