INTRODUCTION: Plasma vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels are increased after surgery and may stimulate tumor growth after cancer resection. Angiopoietin 1 (Ang 1) and Ang 2 are proteins that impact VEGF-related angiogenesis (VRA). Ang 1 stabilizes mature vessels and inhibits VRA, whereas Ang 2 destabilizes…

BACKGROUND: In studies of drug effects on electrocardiographic parameters, the level of precision in measuring QTc interval changes will influence a study's ability to detect small effects. METHODS: Variability data from investigational, placebo and moxifloxacin treatments from seven thorough QT studies performed by t…
