Bevacizumab is a substance that helps your body fight cancer. It prevents the growth of specific types of blood vessels into cancer cells. This helps to decrease the growth of cancer cells by starving the cells of nutrients that are required to grow.

The medicine is to be administered only by or under the direct supervision of your doctor.
