Avastin: The first drug in a new class designed to treat cancer by compromising its blood supply. Avastin (bevacizumab) prevents angiogenesis , the formation of new blood vessels that supply the tumor with blood, oxygen and other nutrients and allow the tumor to grow and metastasize to other sites in the body.
Avastin is a monoclonal antibody , a type of genetically engineered protein , that binds to another protein called vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) which spurs the growth of blood vessels. Blocking VEGF is thought to be the mechanism by which Avastin cuts off the supply of vessels that spring up to feed a tumor.
Avastin was approved by the FDA in 2004 specifically for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Given along with traditional chemotherapy , Avastin extends life expectancy by an average of about five months.
