Bevacizumab | Avastin | VEGF Antibody 12 VEGFR Inhibitor (Pan) 36 | Avastin (bevacizumab) is a monoclonal antibody that binds VEGF and inhibits binding to VEGFR, potentially resulting in decreased tumor growth (PMID: 15136787). Avastin (bevacizumab) is FDA approved for use in colorectal cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, glioblastoma, renal cell carcinoma, cervical carcinoma, and ovarian cancer, and in combination with carboplatin and paclitaxel in epithelial ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer (FDA.gov). | |
Fosbretabulin | Fosbretabulin is metabolized to combretastatin A4, which binds to tubulin dimers, preventing microtubule polymerization. This causes mitotic arrest and apoptosis in endothelial cells, leading to collapse of tumor blood cells, disrupting blood flow to the tumor and possibly causing tumor necrosis (PMID: 31932108). |
