TREATMENT OF ADVANCED BREAST CANCER<br />

inhibition <strong>of</strong> VEGF-A rapidly leads to compensatory activation<br />

<strong>of</strong> alternative pathways. 59,60 Other compounds targeting<br />

the tumor microenvironment can be found in Table 3.<br />

Conclusion<br />

MBC represents a continuing challenge to physicians and<br />

patients. An improved understanding <strong>of</strong> breast cancer biology<br />

has improved prognosis, and progress based on biologic<br />
