DOI: 10.1002/cncr.33990
Abstract: BACKGROUND Angiogenesis has an important role in thymic epithelial tumors (TETs). Regorafenib inhibits vascular endothelial growth factor receptors (VEGFRs), platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFR-β), and fibroblast growth factor receptors (FGFRs). This study explored the… read more here.
