Reading the two articles in the Scientist is a must. Apparently while tumors do not shrink enough to meet endpoints of trials the patients lived longer because the starved tumors were unable to replicate. So perhaps with trials designed with other endpoints would better capture the real potential of anti-angiogensis drugs.

So tumor size does not matter but movement, staying alive does.

Read the articles and draw your own conclusions.

Anti-angiogenic drugs used for diabetic retinolpathy appear to offer promise.
