O QUE É VEGZELMA E PARA QUE É UTILIZADO
VEGZELMA contém a substância ativa bevacizumab, que é um anticorpo
monoclonal humanizado
(um tipo de proteína que é normalmente produzido pelo sistema
imunitário para ajudar a defender o
organismo de infeção e cancro). O bevacizumab liga-se seletivamente
a uma proteína designada por
fator de crescimento do endotélio vascular humano (VEGF), que se
encontra no revestimento dos
vasos sanguíneos e linfáticos do organismo. A proteína VEGF causa o
crescimento dos vasos
sanguíneos nos tumores; estes vasos sanguíneos abastecem o tumor de
nutrientes e oxigénio. Quando o
bevacizumab se liga ao VEGF, impede o crescimento do tumor através do
bloqueio do crescimento
dos vasos sanguíneos que fornecem nutrientes e oxigénio ao tumor.
VEGZELMA é um medicamento utilizado para o tratamento de doentes
adultos com can
