Abstract
Tumors are prothrombotic, while venous thromboembolic events are a leading cause of mortality in cancer patients. Venous thrombi resolve through a process of organization, including the formation of neovascular channels in the thrombus. Use of antiangiogenic therapy is associated with increased incidence and severity of venous thromboembolism. The aim was to investigate whether axitinib, a clinically used, selective vascular endothelial growth factor receptor inhibitor, affects resolution of venous thrombi.
