A member asked:
I'm just wondering, if you can slow down the movement of mitosis in a cancer patient, will that cure cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many drugs: Mechanistically work this way: the vinca alkaloids, vincristine, vinblastine, and taxanes each interrupt the mitotic spindle. These may work in some cancers, but alone do not cause all cells to arrest in mitoses, or cure cancer.
