What is Avastin?

Avastin is a cancer medication that’s prescribed to adults to treat a range of cancers, including:

• Metastatic colorectal cancer
• Non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer
• Recurrent glioblastoma
• Metastatic renal cell carcinoma
• Epithelial ovarian cancer
• Fallopian tube cancer
• Primary peritoneal cancer
• Hepatocellular Carcinoma

If you have a form of cancer that can be treated with Avastin, your doctor may have prescribed it to you. Avastin is a cancer medication that stops tumors creating their own blood supply, starving them of blood, oxygen, and nutrients. This makes it difficult for the tumor to continue growing and makes the tumor easier to kill with other cancer treatments, like chemotherapy.

Avastin is often prescribed alongside other cancer treatments, most often chemotherapy. The medication is given to you by intravenous infusion directly into a vein, usually at the same time as chemotherapy medications are administered by intravenous infusion. The amount of Avastin you require, how often you’ll need to take it, and what other treatments you’ll need will be decided upon by the prescribing doctor based on your cancer and your medical history. 

Avastin active ingredients

The active ingredient in Avastin is called bevacizumab. It’s a type of medication called a monoclonal antibody. This is a cancer-fighting protein designed to target and starve cancerous tumors of blood. When Avastin is given to you, the bevacizumab it contains is absorbed into the cancerous cells that make up your tumor(s). It then blocks a protein inside your cancerous cells called vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A).

VEGF-A is used by cancerous cells to create new blood vessels. This helps cancerous tumors create their own blood supply, which they need to receive the blood, and the oxygen and nutrients it contains, for the tumor to survive and grow. However, by blocking VEGF-A, bevacizumab stops your tumors(s) creating their own blood supply, starving them of blood, oxygen, and nutrients. This makes it harder for the tumors to grow and makes them easier to kill with other cancer treatments, like chemotherapy.
