Study of Nintedanib Plus Bevacizumab in Advanced Solid Tumors
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Angiogenesis, the development of new blood vessels, plays an important role in the disease development and tumor growth in many solid organ malignancies. Bevacizumab was the first anti-angiogenic drug to be approved in solid tumors and has shown advantageous activity with multiple tumor types. However, the responses from Bevacizumab are often transient due to the tumor’s manipulative abilities to circumvent the usual pathways to find salvage pathways instead.
Nintedanib has demonstrated anti-tumor activity in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, ovarian cancer, and renal cell cancer. The combination of Bevacizumab and Nintedanib are being proposed to target the tumor’s manipulation processes to generate alternate pathways for angiogenesis thus creating a potential benefit to delay tumor growth.
