Avastin is made by Genentech.
Avastin is used to treat various types of cancer, including colorectal, lung, kidney, and brain cancers. It works by blocking the growth of blood vessels that supply nutrients to the tumors, slowing down their growth and, in some cases, shrinking the tumors. Avastin is typically administered intravenously by a healthcare provider.
Avastin is indicated for treatment of colorectal cancer, kidney cancer, and glioblastoma multiforme. It is no longer indicated for metastatic breast cancer, as it was shown to be ineffective for that application. Avastin, or Bevacizumab as it is also called, is also used to treat some angiogenesis-related degenerative diseases of the eye including age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic macular edema.
Avastin is the latest chemotherapy medicine by Hoffman La Roche as of 2010 after Alimta. It is very expensive medicine for cancer treatment. It can be used with Cisplatin and Gemzar. But still it has very less success rate in 3rd stage of cancer (espacially lungs cancer). I must say that pharmaceutical company should not play with the lives. I mean to say that price should be low so that maximum people can afford it.
The trade name for Bevacizumab is Avastin. This is used to slow the growth of new blood vessels. It is licensed to treat various cancers including, lung and breast.
According to the Kidney Cancer Association, recommended drugs for treating kidney cancer include Nexavar, Sutent, Torisel, Afinitor, Votrient, Inlyta, Avastin, and Proleukin. Another form of treatment that can be used is radiation therapy.
Bevacizumab - it's a monoclonal antibody used in combination with chemotherapy in the treatment of colorectal and lung cancers. And since it's a monoclonal antibody it's very, expensive. To give you an idea it costs roughly $435 per stone of weight (i.e 12 stone person costs $5240) per fortnight (that's about $136,000 a year for a 12 stone person.)
