Bevacizumab is used in the treatment of cancer where it inhibits tumor growth by blocking the formation of new blood vessels (blocking angiogenesis). The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the short-term safety and effectiveness of Avastin injected into the eyeball in cases with intraocular tumors following-up the subjective and objective postoperative results.

In the tumour microenvironment, IL-1α promotes neoangiogenesis, matrix remodelling, tumour proliferation, chemoresistance, and metastases. Highly expressed in human colorectal cancers, IL-1α is associated with poor prognosis. XB2001, a fully human monoclonal antibody neutralizing IL-1α, was evaluated for safety and preliminary efficacy with trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) and bevacizumab in metastatic colorectal cancer patients previously treated with oxaliplatin- and irinotecan-based chemotherapies.

Background: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlotinib versus PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevacizumab as second-line treatments for advanced NSCLC patients.
Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on data from advanced NSCLC patients who received either PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with anlotinib or PD-1/L1 inhibitors combined with bevacizumab as second-line therapy. Clinical outcomes, including Overall Survival (OS), Progression-Free Survival (PFS), Objective Response Rate (ORR), Disease Control Rate (DCR), and Adverse Events (AEs), were compared between the two treatment groups.

Background: The efficacy of trifluridine/tipiracil (FTD/TPI) + bevacizumab compared to FTD/TPI for treatment of refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) was demonstrated in the SUNLIGHT trial. This analysis of SUNLIGHT investigated the impact of treatment with FTD/TPI + bevacizumab on patient quality of life (QoL) and Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS).
Methods: Questionnaires (EORTC QLQ-C30 and EQ-5D-5L) and ECOG PS assessments were conducted at baseline and on Day 1 of each treatment cycle.

Congenital intracranial hemangiomas are rare benign vascular tumors that develop before birth. Although various treatments, including surgery, steroids, interferon-α, thalidomide, bevacizumab, or propranolol, have been reported, no standard therapy has been established. We report the case of a neonate with congenital intracranial hemangioma and central nervous system symptoms requiring therapeutic intervention.
