For tumours to survive they need to produce a network of blood vessels, angiogenesis inhibitors interfere with the development of blood vessels. This means that the cancer is unable to receive the oxygen and nutrients it needs to survive.
We have specific information about the angiogenesis inhibitors lenalidomide and thalidomide.
