Methods of regressing or inhibiting a tumor in a subject by administering an agent capable of blocking, inhibiting, or ameliorating vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-mediated activity to a subject in need thereof such that the tumor is regressed or inhibited. The method of the invention results in a reduction of tumor size and inhibition of tumor metastases. This method is particularly useful for patients suffering from bulky, metastatic cancers. |
