Mechanism of action
Modified FOLFOX6 is a chemotherapy regimen containing fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin that damages DNA and prevents cancer cell replication. Bevacizumab is a monoclonal antibody targeting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) that inhibits angiogenesis, reducing blood supply to tumors. Together, they provide dual mechanisms of cytotoxic chemotherapy and anti-angiogenic therapy.
