MVASI (bevacizumab-awwb)

Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor-directed Antibody Interactions Genetically Validated Trial Activity: Growth 2 active trials
Oncology Approved 2017-09-14

MVASI is a vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor used to treat several types of advanced, metastatic, or recurrent cancers, including colorectal, lung, glioblastoma, renal, cervical, and ovarian malignancies. It is primarily administered in combination with specific chemotherapy regimens or interferon-alfa, though it may be used as a single agent in certain maintenance or recurrent settings. The drug is indicated for various stages of treatment, such as first-line or second-line therapy, but is specifically not indicated for the adjuvant treatment of colon cancer.

How MVASI Works

MVASI works by binding to vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) to prevent it from interacting with its receptors on the surface of endothelial cells. This interaction normally stimulates the proliferation of endothelial cells and the formation of new blood vessels, a process known as angiogenesis. By blocking this pathway, the drug reduces microvascular growth and inhibits the progression of metastatic disease.

MVASI Target & Pathway

Pro

Target

VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor) Growth Factor

A signaling protein that stimulates the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis). Tumors need blood supply to grow, so they secrete VEGF to create new vessels. Blocking VEGF starves tumors of oxygen and nutrients, inhibiting their growth.

Pathway Context

VEGF binds to VEGFR on blood vessel cells to stimulate new vessel formation

VEGFR (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor) receptor

Receptors on blood vessel cells that respond to VEGF signals to form new blood vessels. Cancer cells exploit this pathway to ensure blood supply for tumor growth. Blocking VEGFRs prevents tumor angiogenesis and limits cancer progression.

Biosimilar for Avastin

MVASI is a lower-cost alternative to Avastin with no clinically meaningful differences. Requires prescriber approval to substitute.

How We Calculate These Metrics

Trial Activity Stage

Measures the current development activity pattern based on trial phases, status, and trends. Important: This measures R&D activity, not commercial lifecycle.

Trial statuses: "Active" means recruiting or ongoing. "Completed" means reached planned endpoint. "Terminated" means stopped early—often due to safety, efficacy, or business reasons.

  • Growth: High proportion of early-phase trials (Phase 1/2), active development
  • Expansion: Significant Phase 3 activity, approaching or pursuing approvals
  • Mature: Substantial Phase 4 post-marketing studies
  • Stable: Mixed phase distribution, steady development
  • Declining: Low active trial ratio, reduced R&D investment
