A Randomized Phase II Study Adding Axitinib to Pemetrexed-Cisplatin in Patients with Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma: A Single-Center Trial Combining Clinical and Translational Outcomes Wieneke A.

Figure 2 (A) Microvessel density (MVD) before (yellow) and after (green) treatment. In the chemotherapy-only group (no axitinib) there is an increase in MVD (p < ). MVD was measured in number per mm3. (B) Blood vessel maturity before (yellow) and after (green) treatment. In the chemotherapy-only group (no axitinib) there is an increase in immature blood vessels (p = ). Immature blood vessels are depicted as number of blood vessels without associated smooth muscle actin-positive pericytes per mm3. bline, baseline values; post, posttreatment values.

Figure 3 (A) Increased mRNA expression of fibroblast growth factor receptor 1, platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta, and fms-related tyrosine kinase 1 and their ligands fibroblast growth factor 2, platelet-derived growth factor beta, and placental growth factor after treatment with axitinib. (B) Changes in mRNA levels (after versus before treatment) of platelet-derived growth factor receptor beta, fms-related tyrosine kinase 1, and fms-related tyrosine kinase 4 correlate with the clinical response.
