摘要
The effects of combination anti-angiogenesis therapy (marimastat, captopril and fragmin) on plasma levels of coagulation initiator tissue factor (TF), platelet marker soluble P-selectin and angiogenic vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were tested in 25 patients with advanced cancer. They had higher soluble P-selectin (P < 0.001) and TF (P < 0.001), but not VEGF (P = 0.066) than 25 age and sex-matched controls. VEGF and TF correlated significantly (r = 0.8, P < 0.001) in cancer patients. Soluble P-selectin, TF and VEGF did not change at 4- and 8-weeks whilst on treatment. We provide further evidence linking coagulation and angiogenesis but combination anti-angiogenesis therapy does not influence plasma soluble P-selectin,TF or VEGF.
