Core Tip |
Brain metastases are the most common intracranial tumor, the average survival time of patients after symptomatic treatment with chemotherapy, radiotherapy and hormonal drugs is less than 1 year. We report two patients with multiple micrometastases in the brain after failure of second-line treatment, and both had extracerebral metastases. By taking apatinib, the intracerebral lesions disappeared and the extracerebral lesions were partially alleviated. Both patients received progression-free survival for more than 12 mo and are still stable. Apatinib, a small-molecule oral inhibitor with anti-angiogenic function, may be an option for brain metastases. |
