FDA withdraws approval of drug Avastin to treat breast cancer

FDA withdraws approval of drug Avastin to treat breast cancer - latimes.com:
"Studies showed that women with advanced breast cancer taking Avastin had a higher risk of death from stroke or heart attack, and that the medication raised blood pressure and increased the risk of congestive heart failure. The risk of serious bleeding was five times higher among users of Avastin than it was for those on chemotherapy only."  'via Blog this'
