Research Abstract |
The resistance against anti-VEGF therapy was investigated using orthotopic implantation mouse model of human malignant pleural mesothelioma cells. Although tumor angiogenesis was inhibited in the early phase ofanti-VEGF therapy, microvessel density was turned to increase in the late phase ofthe therapy, suggesting that the tumor acquired the resistance against anti-VEGF therapy. We found that the host FGF2 was up-regulated in the resistant tumor, and anti-FGFR therapy in combination with anti-VEGF therapy was more effective compared to anti-VEGF therapy alone. Angiogenic switch into different factors such as FGF2 seemed to play important role in the resistance against anti-VEGF therapy.
