摘要: Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and metastasis a promising target in the search new anti-neoplastic agents. tightly regulated process dependent on complex interplay between inhibitory stimulatory angiogenic factors. Vascular endothelial factor one of best characterized pro-angiogenic factors, multiple strategies have been developed to inhibit this pathway. Bevacizumab, monoclonal antibody against vascular factor, has shown initial preclinical clinical activity. This review will outline conceptual basis anti-angiogenic therapy, discuss critical role summarize available data use bevacizumab colorectal cancer.
