Bevicra 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. Bevicra specifically binds to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a protein that promotes the formation of new blood vessels. By neutralizing VEGF, Bevicra starves tumors of their blood supply, inhibiting growth and progression.
