Anti-tumor angiogenesis is a new targeted therapy strategy that can maximize the control and killing of tumors.
Although anti-cell proliferation drugs can kill tumor cells, due to the support of surrounding blood vessels, the remaining tumor cells can still obtain blood supply and continue to grow. At the same time, abnormal tumor blood vessels reduce the delivery of drugs into the tumor tissue, ultimately leading to limited efficacy of anti-cell proliferation therapy. This makes people rethink new tumor drug treatment strategies, which is to take a holistic view, not only for tumor cells, but also for the tumor microenvironment, especially tumor angiogenesis, to combat tumors in all directions! This is a new anti-angiogenesis combined anti-proliferative treatment strategy, referred to as "A + strategy" for short.
Unlike chemotherapeutics that only affect tumor cell proliferation, it specifically binds VEGF, prevents it from interacting with receptors, and exerts multiple effects on tumor blood vessels: degenerate existing tumor blood vessels, thereby cutting off tumor cell growth Need oxygen and other nutrients; normalize surviving tumor blood vessels, reduce tumor tissue pressure, improve the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs to tumor tissues, improve the effect of chemotherapy; inhibit tumor neovascularization, and thus continue to inhibit tumor cell growth and metastasis .
