That's right. It's called Abraxane, made by American BioScience inc.. It's combined with albumin. Apparently, you don't get the solvent-related side effects like allergic reactions so no pre meds are needed ( no steroids). According to the advertisement, it thus allows for stronger taxol doses.

I think it's good
