5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the taxane antitumor agent is paclitaxel, docetaxel, cabazitaxel, albumin-binding paclitaxel, albumin-binding docetaxel, docosahexaenoic acid binding paclitaxel, polyglutamated paclitaxel or peptide-binding paclitaxel.
6. A method for treating a tumor, comprising
administering a piperidine compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof once or more per day for 4 days or more in combination with a microtubule-targeting drug administered-once per 7 days or more as one cycle, wherein the microtubule-targeting drug is a taxane antitumor agent and the piperidine compound or a salt thereof is administered once or more per day for 4 days or more:
and wherein R 1 represents a carboxyl group, —C(═O)NR 5 R 6 , or an oxadiazolyl group which is optionally substituted with a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group or a trifluoromethyl group;
R 2 represents a halogen atom or a C 1 -C 6 alkoxy group;
R 3 represents a phenyl group which is optionally substituted with 1 to 3 groups, which are the same or different, selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group, a C 1 -C 6 alkoxy group and a trifluoromethyl group, as a substituent;
R 4 represents a hydrogen atom or a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group; and
R 5 and R 6 , which are the same or different, each independently represent a hydrogen atom, a C 1 -C 6 alkyl group or a C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl group; or R 5 and R 6 , together with a nitrogen atom to which they are attached, optionally form a 3 to 6-membered saturated heterocyclic group comprising nitrogen.
7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein
the microtubule-targeting drug is administered on day 1 in 7 days as one cycle, and
administration of the piperidine compound or a salt thereof is initiated on day 1 or day 2, wherein a period of consecutive daily administration is performed for 4 or 5 days.
