Product Introduction:
Versavo 100mg Injection is an anti-cancer therapy that helps slow tumor growth by blocking the formation of new blood vessels. It is administered intravenously (IV) under medical supervision and is often combined with chemotherapy for better efficacy.
Uses of Versavo 100mg
Versavo 100mg is prescribed for treating:
  1. Metastatic Colorectal Cancer (mCRC) – With chemotherapy.
  2. Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) – Advanced/metastatic cases.

  5. Glioblastoma (Brain Cancer) – Recurrent tumors.
  6. Other Solid Tumors (Off-label Use) – As per oncologist’s recommendation.
How Versavo 100mg Works (Mechanism of Action):
  1. Bevacizumab binds to VEGF, preventing it from activating VEGF receptors on blood vessel cells.
  2. VEGF is essential for angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels) that tumors need to grow.
  3. By blocking VEGF, Versavo restricts the tumor's blood supply, starving it of oxygen and nutrients.
