Problems solved by technology

Decreased vasculature and restricted tumor growth in early-stage tumors with anti-VEGF therapy, such as an anti-VEGF antibody (bevacizumab)
However, continued antiangiogenic therapy with bevacizumab in metastatic tumors produced no benefit in a retrospective analysis

Embodiment Construction

[0143] The term "angiogenesis-associated disease" promotes a large number of diseases or disorders that result directly from deregulated angiogenesis or are biased in the indirect effects of deregulated angiogenesis. These numerous diseases include oncological disorders, cardiovascular diseases, inflammation, autoimmune diseases, degenerative disorders, eye disorders. Dysregulated angiogenesis can be induced by a variety of pathological stimuli.

[0144] The term "anti-angiogenic effect" means blocking or at least inhibiting angiogenesis. In the context of the present invention, anti-angiogenic drugs or substances are preferably used to combat angiogenesis-associated diseases by limiting the pathological formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis), and the disease symptoms mediated by angiogenesis are due to the administration of anti-angiogenic relieved by drugs.

[0145] The term "biomarker" refers to a substance used as an indicator of a biological state. It is a chara...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for assessing the effect of integrin inhibitors and small molecule ATP site directed multi kinase inhibitors on angiogenesis by the use of certain identified biomarkers. This method is notably beneficial for the determination of the efficacy of integrin inhibitors and small molecule ATP site directed multi-kinase inhibitors mainly used for the treatment of angiogenesis associated diseases such as cancer. Especially, the invention relates to biomarkers linked to angiogenesis that are preferably accessible in body fluids and therefore allow analysis of target modulation in a non-invasive way. The use of said biomarkers for the screening of compounds with integrin-inhibitory activity is also disclosed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to methods for assessing the effects of integrin inhibitors and small molecule ATP site-directed multikinase inhibitors on angiogenesis by using certain identified biomarkers. This method is particularly useful for determining the efficacy of integrin inhibitors and small molecule ATP site-directed multikinase inhibitors that are primarily used in the treatment of angiogenesis-related diseases such as cancer. In particular, the present invention relates to biomarkers associated with angiogenesis, which are preferably accessible in body fluids and thus allow analysis of target regulation in a non-invasive manner. Also disclosed is the use of the biomarker for screening compounds having integrin inhibitory activity. Background technique [0002] Angiogenesis is broadly applicable to the formation of new blood vessels from pre-existing vasculature. Proliferation of endothelial cells undergoing DNA synthesis is a common hall...
