REVIEW Vandetanib is an orally available receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitor, which blocks both the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) RTK and the Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) RTK. Blockade of the VEGF receptors limits the growth of new blood vessels, which are vital to supporting the growth of tumors. Without sufficient blood supply, tumor cells become starved for nutrients, slowing or halting growth. Vandetanib is specifically indicated for the treatment of symptomatic or progressive medullary thyroid cancer in patients with unresectable locally advanced or metastatic disease.
