Description
Avastin binds vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)and prevents the interaction of VEGF to its receptors on the surface of endothelial cells. The interaction of VEGF with its receptors leads to endothelial cell proliferation and new blood vessel formation in in-vitro models of angiogenesis. This medication works by hindering the growth of new blood vessels that are responsible for feeding the tumors. Through this mechanism, Bryxta stops the tumor’s growth. Bryxta (Bevacizumab) is available in the form of injections with strengths of 100mg and 400mg.
