Angiogenesis plays a major role in the development and progression of solid tumors, including lung cancer. Although some anti-angiogenic agents have demonstrated a statistically significant advantage in terms of primary outcome in clinical trials, the reliable clinical benefit obtained with these drugs is still questionable and often quantitatively limited. To better clarify this complex scenario and definitively establish the concrete benefits of anti-angiogenic strategies in lung cancer, several clinical trials have been conducted with others currently ongoing.

Abstract
Angiogenesis plays a major role in the development and progression of solid tumors, including lung cancer. Although some anti-angiogenic agents have demonstrated a statistically significant advantage in terms of primary outcome in clinical trials, the reliable clinical benefit obtained with these drugs is still questionable and often quantitatively limited. To better clarify this complex scenario and definitively establish the concrete benefits of anti-angiogenic strategies in lung cancer, several clinical trials have been conducted with others currently ongoing.File in questo prodotto:
