摘要:
The invention relates to a combination therapy for the treatment of tumors andtumor metastases comprising administration of receptor tyrosine kinaseantagonists/inhibitors, especially ErbB receptor antagonists, more preferablyEGF receptor (Her 1) antagonists and anti-angiogenic agents, preferablyintegrin antagonists, optionally together with agents or therapy forms thathave additive or synergistic efficacy when administered together with saidcombination of antagonists/inhibitors, such as chemotherapeutic agents and orradiation therapy.
