Abstract:
The identification and characterization of several important regulators of angiogenesis, which led to Food and Drug Administration approval of the first antiangiogenic drugs, has opened a new era in cancer therapy. This article focuses on the clinical progress in targeting one of the major regulators of angiogenesis, vascular endothelial growth factor-A and also discusses some recent advances in the elucidation of potential cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying refractoriness or resistance to antiangiogenic therapies.

Cancer Therapies
However, cancer treatments can pose several challenges, as therapies used to kill cancer cells are generally also toxic to normal cells. Moreover, cancer cells mutate rapidly and can develop resistance to chemical agents or radiation therapy. Besides, all types of cancer cells may not respond to the same therapy. Some cancer cells respond to one...
