Article Title: | Short report of a phase ii trial of nintedanib in recurrent malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) |
Abstract: | • Novel therapies are needed for the treatment of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). • Agents targeting angiogenesis such as bevacizumab have a role in the treatment of MPM. • Nintedanib had modest activity involving prolonged stable disease in a small group of patients. • Immunotherapy is now important in the treatment of MPM but angiogenesis inhibitors in combination with immunotherapy and/or chemotherapy may still have a role. • It is very important to discover biomarkers that can help with patient selection to individualize treatment. • Participation in clinical trials evaluating novel agents remains very important in advancing treatment strategies. © 2023 |
