A knowlegeable and anonymous comment on MZ's anti-angiogenesis discussion:

"I am not aware of any angiogenesis side effect with MGI-114.

What I think the author is really saying is that he is having more and more problems with the concept of using anti-angiogenesis as a target for cancer therapy.

This approach, of developing anti-angiogenic agents, is being pursued by several large drug companies, without success due to side effects.

If you read his comments carefully, I think that is what he is really trying to say but is having difficulty due to his limited English."

MGI 114 has caused three biological reactions in the human trials at dose rates well below those that generated a 50% response rate in animals. At 14 mg/M^2 to 20 mg/m^2 we should expect to see increasingly frequent activity in the patients being tested.

Go MGI !
