“…However, VEGF plays multiple roles in physiologic processes, and thus its inhibition could have potentially serious systemic consequences. Although previous researches have shown that anti-VEGFR agents significantly increases the risk of developing anti-VEGF adverse events, including hypertension, [39–41] hemorrhage, [42,43] proteinuria, [44,45] gastrointestinal perforation, [46] congestive heart failure, [47–49] and thromboembolic events. [50–53] , the risk of these adverse events in advanced NSCLC remains unknown.…”
