  • Publication number: 20110177027
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combination therapy for the treatment of tumors metastases comprising administration of anti-angiogenic agents and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFa) optionally together with other cytotoxic agents, such as interferon gamma (IFNy) or chemotherapeutic agents such as anti-EGFR antibodies. The method and the pharmaceutical compositions comprising said agents can result in a synergistic potentiation of the tumor cell proliferation inhibition effect of each individual therapeutic agent, yielding more effective treatment than found by administering an individual component alone.

  • Publication number: 20110165150
    Abstract: The invention relates to a combination therapy for the treatment of tumors and tumor metastases comprising administration of integrin ligands, preferably integrin antagonists, together with co-therapeutic agents or therapy forms that have synergistic efficacy when administered together with said ligands, such as chemotherapeutic agents and/or radiation therapy, in isolated organ perfusion.
