Antiangiogenic therapy currently represents one of the new exciting prospects in oncology. It is a treatment that is focused on suppression

of the release of proangiogenic factors produced in the cell or directed against the receptors for angiogenic factors on endothelial

cells. This paper explains the principles and current issues of antiangiogenic therapy.

Keywords: angiegenesis, antiangiogenic therapy, vaskular faktor (VEGF), growth faktor
