• Nexavar 200 mg acts on different kinases, which are enzymes that promote tumor growth and proliferation.
  
• This Nexavar tablet inhibits RAF kinases, which prevent cell replication, and VEGF receptors, which prevent the formation of blood vessels.
  
• In turn, by depriving the tumor of its nutrient supply, it helps reduce the nourishment of cancer cells.
  
• Furthermore, this medication disrupts the signals that regulate tumor development through inhibition of PDGFR and KIT.
  
• In general, Nexavar is a treatment approach that targets the cancer cells as well as their vessels.
