Tumor angiogenesis in gastric cancer.
Growth of solid tumors, including gastric cancer, and the formation of metastasis depend on the induction of new blood vessels; in tumors, angiogenesis is uncontrolled and immature. This is a complex process, depending on a great variety of angiogenic factors, one of the most important being the vascular endothelial growth factor. In order to suppress the tumor development and the occurrence of...
متن کاملRamucirumab: successfully targeting angiogenesis in gastric cancer.
Gastric cancer is the fourth most common cancer globally and represents the second most common cause of cancer-related mortality. Early detection, aggressive surgical resection, and postoperative adjuvant therapy have led to survival improvement for early-stage gastric cancer, particularly in Asian countries. Unfortunately, advanced gastric cancer continues to pose a formidable challenge with f...
متن کاملRole of angiogenesis inhibitors in cancer treatment.
Angiogenesis is essential for the growth of both primary and metastatic tumors. This process, more complex than was previously thought, requires the coordinated activities of multiple factors and cell types. For tumors to develop a neovascular blood supply, tumor and host cells must secrete pro-angiogenic factors that offset the activities of inhibitory angiogenic factors. In addition, the newl...
متن کاملEfficacy and safety of angiogenesis inhibitors in advanced gastric cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Monoclonal antibodies and small molecule tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) directed against the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or its receptors have been investigated in several studies for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer (GC). In the present study, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of angiogenesis inhibitors in advanced GC. We searched published randomized contro...
متن کاملMarine-Derived Angiogenesis Inhibitors for Cancer Therapy
Angiogenesis inhibitors have been successfully used for cancer therapy in the clinic. Many marine-derived natural products and their analogues have been reported to show antiangiogenic activities. Compared with the drugs in the clinic, these agents display interesting characteristics, including diverse sources, unique chemical structures, special modes of action, and distinct activity and toxic...
