摘要: For more than 50 years, a major goal of research in cancer therapeutics has been to develop universally effective agents that render cells sensitive cytotoxic chemotherapy without substantially increasing toxicity normal cells. The results recent clinical trials indicate certain antiangiogenic drugs may produce this long-sought effect. Here, I describe three distinct mechanisms help explain the chemosensitizing activity these drugs: normalizing tumor vasculature, preventing rapid cell repopulation, and augmenting antivascular effects chemotherapy. then discuss how potential might be exploited maximize therapeutic efficacy.
