Drug Discov. 3, 391–400 (2004). | Article | PubMed | ISI | ChemPort | In February 2004, bevacizumab (Avastin; Genentech), an antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor, was approved by the US FDA for the first-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer, a leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide.
