FDA Revokes Avastin's Breast Cancer Indication

Postby Janette » Sat Nov 19, 2011 11:29 am

DG Alert: The commissioner for the US Food and Drug Administration announced today she will revoke the breast cancer indication for Avastin (bevacizumab), citing "it is clear that women who take Avastin for metastatic breast cancer risk potentially life-threatening side effects" without proof of a benefit that would justify those risks.
