SUMMARY: Antiangiogenic drugs have been shown to have promising activity in recurrent malignant gliomas. Investigation of novel antiangiogenic compounds and future clinical trials will determine whether these drugs have a role in first-line therapy. This article reviews the rationale for targeting angiogenesis in malignant brain tumors and summarizes the results of recent clinical trials. In addition, this review will outline potential toxicities associated with angiogenesis inhibition in an attempt to provide practical guidance to physicians treating patients with malignant gliomas.
