Advances in Bevacizumab Therapy for Non-small Cell Lung Cancer 
with Brain Metastases

Brain metastases are frequently encountered in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Antiangiogenesis therapy plays a major role in the management of brain metastases in lung cancer. Bevacizumab have become the novel method for the t...
