This is not to say that antiangiogenic therapy might not be a useful tool for the treatment of glioblastoma, but at this point, evidence for the ability of these agents to augment survival is lacking.
We propose that antiangiogenic therapy can similarly stabilize vulnerable 'rupture-prone' plaques by pruning and normalizing immature intraplaque vessels, preventing further intraplaque hemorrhage.
Antiangiogenic therapy is based on the theory that blocking new blood vessel formation in tumors will stop or slow their growth. Currently, four molecular-targeted drugs are approved by the FDA ...
Obesity—which is already known to reduce survival in several types of cancer—may explain the ineffectiveness of angiogenesis inhibitors in the treatment of breast cancer. A research team led ...
