lüll Vascular tumor targeting Ahlskog J; Paganelli G; Neri DQ J Nucl Med Mol Imaging 2006[Dec]; 50 (4): 296-309The growth of solid tumors is dependent on their capacity to acquire blood supply. Therefore, much effort has been directed towards the development of anti-angiogenic agents which inhibit the process of neovascularization. More recently, it has become apparent that the targeted destruction of the established tumor vasculature represents a complementary avenue for growing therapeutic opportunities. This review provides evidence that vascular tumor targeting is an effective anti-tumor strategy in animal models. It further describes strategies for the identification of putative tumor vascular targets and discusses future prospects for vascular targeting applications in the clinical setting.|Drug Delivery Systems/*methods[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Neoplasms/*blood supply/*radiotherapy[MESH]|Neovascularization, Pathologic/*radiotherapy[MESH]|Radioisotopes/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Radiopharmaceuticals/*therapeutic use[MESH] |
