The cocktail of 3 antiangiogenesis drugs is found in lab tests to inhibit selectively new capillaries (but not existing ones) even in low doses & without apparent side effects & treats effectively brain tumors (glioblastomas) & retina damage caused by excessive vasculature.
The researchers believe that the synergetic multi prong attack on new vessels prevents tumors from finding an escape to grow.
