WHAT ABEVMY IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Abevmy contains the active substance bevacizumab, which is a humanised monoclonal antibody (a type of protein that is normally made by the immune system to help defend the body from infection and cancer). Bevacizumab binds selectively to a protein called human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), which is found on the lining of blood and lymph vessels in the body. The VEGF protein causes blood vessels to grow within tumours, these blood vessels provide the tumour with nutrients and oxygen. Once bevacizumab is bound to VEGF, tumour growth is prevented by blocking the growth of the blood vessels which provide the nutrients and oxygen to the tumour. Abevmy is a medicine used for the treatment of adult patients with advanced cancer in the large bowel, i.e., in the colon or rectum. Abevmy will be administered in combination with chemotherapy treatment containing a fluoropyrimidine medicine. Abevmy is also used for the treatment of adult patients with metastatic breast cancer.
