Re: Avastin's "Black Box" warnings:

A little-discussed aspect of the Avastin program is that the Avastin dose generally used in lung, breast, pancreatic, and renal cancers is twice the dose used in colorectal cancer: 10mg/kg every other week rather than 5mg/kg.

I shudder to think of the warnings that may be needed at the higher, 10mg/kg dose.
