Paclitaxel-carboplatin alone or with bevacizumab for non-small-cell lung cancer
Alan B. Sandler,Robert Gray,Michael C. Perry,Julie R. Brahmer,Joan H. Schiller,Afshin Dowlati,Rogerio Lilenbaum,David H. Johnson +7 more
TL;DR: The addition of bevacizumab to paclitaxel plus carboplatin in the treatment of selected patients with non-small-cell lung cancer has a significant survival benefit with the risk of increased treatment-related deaths.

Kathy D. Miller,Molin Wang,Julie Gralow,Maura N. Dickler,Melody A. Cobleigh,Edith A. Perez,Tamara Shenkier,David Cella,David Cella,Nancy E. Davidson +9 more
TL;DR: Initial therapy of metastatic breast cancer with paclitaxel plus bevacizumab prolongs progression-free survival, but not overall survival, as compared with pac litaxel alone.

Journal ArticleDOI
Drug penetration in solid tumours
TL;DR: The evidence that indicates that the distribution of many anticancer drugs in tumours is incomplete is summarized, and strategies that might be used either to improve drug penetration through tumour tissue or to select compounds based on their abilities to penetrate tissue are suggested, thereby increasing the therapeutic index.

Angiogenesis as a therapeutic target
TL;DR: Therapeutic angiogenesis (promoting new vessel growth to treat ischaemic disorders) is an exciting frontier of cardiovascular medicine, but further understanding of the mechanisms of vascular morphogenesis is needed first.
