Angiogenesis

Sprouting angiogenesis involves multiple linked and sequential steps that include endothelial cell proliferation, migration, invasion, survival, and capillary tube formation; mediated by multiple angiogenic factors, the most important of which is VEGF.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Sprouting angiogenesis involves multiple linked and sequential steps that include endothelial cell proliferation, migration, invasion, survival, and capillary tube formation; mediated by multiple angiogenic factors, the most important of which is VEGF. Ellis. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):4-10. Angiogenesis

  2. VEGF family members bind to specific VEGF membrane-bound tyrosine kinase receptors, eliciting the functions described in this slide. Ellis. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):4-10. VEGF Family and Receptors

  3. Anti–VEGFR-2 Antibody Reduces Tumor Interstitial Pressure Treatment with anti–VEGFR-2 antibody led to a rapid reduction in murine lung and glioma tumor interstitial pressures. From Tong et al. Cancer Res. 2004;64:3731-3736, with permission.Ellis. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):4-10.

  4. PTK787/ZK 222584 Reduces Liver Metastasis Ki PTK787/ZK 222584 reduced perfusion parameters (Ki) in nonprogressing patients with colorectal cancer liver metastasis. From Morgan et al. J Clin Oncol. 2003;21:3955-3964,with permission. Ellis. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):4-10.

  5. Modulating VEGF/VEGFR Signaling Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor (VEGFR) signaling modulation approaches include targeting VEGF/VEGFR with antibodies, reducing VEGF expression with fusion proteins, using ribozymes to decrease receptor expression and activation, and reducing receptor activation and downstream signaling. TKI = tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Steward. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):11-21.

  6. PTK787/ZK 222584 (PTK/ZK) significantly inhibited human DU-145 prostate cancer xenografts in nude mice. Tumor growth resumed on cessation of treatment, demonstrating the cytostatic rather than cytotoxic effects of PTK/ZK. From Bold et al. Prous Sci Drugs Future. 2002;27:43-55, with permission. Steward. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):11-21. PTK787/ZK 222584 in Prostate Cancer Xenografts

  7. PTK787/ZK 222584 Reduces Liver Metastasis Perfusion Baseline (top) and day 2 (bottom; ~30h postdose) images show reduction in perfusion and permeability of liver metastasis (arrow) after bolus PTK787/ZK 222584. From Morgan et al.J Clin Oncol. 2003;21:3955–3964, with permission. Steward. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):11-21.

  8. PTK787/ZK 222584 Reduces Liver Metastasis Volume MRI images from a colorectal cancer patient show a reduction in liver metastasis(highlighted by shaded areas in lower panels) after PTK787/ZK 222584. Steward. Horizons in Cancer Therapeutics. 2004;5(2):11-21.
