Anti-Angiogenesis Nurse Kit

Anti-angiogenesis is a very complex process and can be challenging to explain to patients. The Anti-Angiogenesis Nurse Kit provides information you can use to help patients understand the process of anti-angiogenesis, how anti-angiogenic agents are intended to work and why they are different from conventional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation. Each therapy has its own benefits and side effects, and the use of new therapies in combination is helping to advance treatment and improve patient outcomes.

Anti-angiogenic agents are currently being studied in clinical trials for their effect on multiple types of cancer, including brain, breast, lung, ovarian, pancreatic and prostate. Anti-angiogenic treatments have already been approved for certain types of colorectal, kidney and stomach cancers.

The Nurse Kit includes the following materials to help you educate patients about anti-angiogenesis:

• Evolving Approaches to Cancer Therapy
• Anti-Angiogenesis Fact Sheet
• Talking to Patients About Anti-Angiogenic Agents
• Talking to Patients About Clinical Trials
• Cancer Resources
• Glossary
• Anti-Angiogenesis Desktop Presentation
