Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor for proliferative diabetic retinopathy [PDF]
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is a complication of diabetic retinopathy that can cause blindness. Although panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) is the treatment of choice for PDR, it has secondary effects that can affect vision. An alternative treatment such as anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF), which produces an inhibition of

Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor for diabetic macular oedema [PDF]
Diabetic macular oedema (DMO) is a common complication of diabetic retinopathy. Although grid or focal laser photocoagulation has been shown to reduce the risk of visual loss in DMO, or clinically significant macular oedema (CSMO), vision is rarely improved.

Influence of hypoxia and neoangiogenesis on the growth of pancreatic cancer [PDF]
As with other solid tumors, the growth and metastasis of pancreatic cancer is critically dependent on tumor angiogenesis. A major stimulus for a tumor's recruitment of additional blood vessels is cellular hypoxia, a condition which is especially ...

ANTI–VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL GROWTH FACTOR BIOSIMILARS IN OPHTHALMOLOGY
Background/Purpose: Anti–vascular endothelial growth factor therapies have proven effective in treating retinal diseases but come with a high financial burden to the patient and health care system. Biosimilar drugs present an opportunity to decrease the cost of these important ophthalmic medications, and several ophthalmic ...

In silico design and biological evaluation of a dual specificity kinase inhibitor targeting cell cycle progression and angiogenesis [PDF]
Methodology: We have utilized a rational in silico-based approach to demonstrate the design and study of a novel compound that acts as a dual inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2) and cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (CDK1).

Anti-vascular endothelial growth factor for proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) is an advanced complication of diabetic retinopathy that can cause blindness. It consists of the presence of new vessels in the retina and vitreous haemorrhage. Although panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) is the treatment of choice for PDR, it has secondary effects that can affect vision.

Lessons From Anti–Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor and Anti–Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor Trials in Patients With Glioblastoma [PDF]
Treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary malignant brain tumor in adults, remains a significant unmet need in oncology. Historically, cytotoxic treatments provided little durable benefit, and tumors recurred within several months.
