So, Tivozanib is this drug that blocks a specific protein, called VEGFR, which helps to treat advanced kidney cancer. It works by stopping something called angiogenesis, which cuts off the blood flow to tumors and stops them from growing. You can get this drug in two doses: one with 890 micrograms and another with 1.34 milligrams.
You’re supposed to take 1.34 milligrams every day for 21 days, then take a break for 7 days in every 28-day stretch. You can take it with or without eating, and it comes in bottles with 21 pills. Tivozanib mainly works by blocking VEGFR, which is really important in how kidney cancer grows.
The way they have it set up with the active days and the rest days is to make the treatment as effective as possible without causing too many side effects. And these capsules are easy to take because you can work them around your meals, pretty flexible.
