Advamab is a monoclonal antibody used in the treatment of various cancers. It works by inhibiting angiogenesis, the process by which tumors develop new blood vessels to sustain their growth. Advamab specifically binds to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a protein that promotes the formation of new blood vessels. By neutralizing VEGF, Advamab starves tumors of their blood supply, inhibiting growth and progression.
Indications:
Advamab is a cornerstone in targeted cancer therapy due to its innovative approach to halting tumor growth. However, its use requires careful consideration of patient-specific factors and potential side effects.
