Contraindicated Use of Bevacizumab and Toxicity in Elderly Patients With Cancer.
CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates widespread use of bevacizumab among patients who had contraindications. Black patients were less likely to receive the drug, but those who did were more likely to have a contraindication. Efforts to understand toxicity and efficacy in populations excluded from clinical trials are needed. PMID: 24002522 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
