Anti-VEGF– and anti-VEGF receptor–induced vascular alteration in mouse healthy tissues [PDF]
Systemic therapy with anti-VEGF drugs such as bevacizumab is widely used for treatment of human patients with various solid tumors. However, systemic impacts of such drugs in host healthy vasculatures remain poorly understood. Here, we show that, in mice, systemic delivery of an anti-VEGF or an anti–VEGF receptor (VEGFR)-2 neutralizing antibody caused ...
