Description: Eribulin (E-7389; Halaven;B1939; ER-086526; Eisai), a synthetic analogue of the marine-originated natural product halichondrin B, is an antitubulin/microtubule targeting agent (MTA)/mitotic/tubulin inhibitor approved for use in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer. Eribulin (E7389) inhibits the proliferation of cancer cells by binding microtubule proteins and microtubules.
