Jazz, I can see this regrowth of blood vessels as a problem when using Avastin. Soon after you stop the therapy blood vessels reestablish themselves.

And here is a major advantage of using bavituximab; first it cuts off blood vessels and blood supply to the tumors, and then, importantly, it sets up an adaptive immune recognition of PS exposing endothelial cells.

I am really looking forward to more analysis of the adaptive immune response with bavituximab.
