NCIt related terms : Angiocept; CT-322; VEGFR-2 inhibitor CT-322;
NCIt definition : A pegylated form of a thermostable and protease resistant peptide targeting human
vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) with potential antiangiogenic
activity. Derived from the 10th type III domain of human fibronectin and one of the
natural ligands, pegdinetanib binds to VEGFR-2 and prevents activation of VEGFR-2
by other activating ligands. This may inhibit the growth of new tumor blood vessels.;
Alternative definition : NCI-GLOSS: A substance being studied in the treatment of cancer. CT-322 may prevent
the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow and may kill cancer cells.
It is a type of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) inhibitor
and a type of antiangiogenesis agent.;
