Fruquintinib
This oral medication inhibits VEGF receptors that promote tumor blood vessel formation, cutting off the blood supply that colorectal and lung tumors need to grow. It is used in later lines of treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer that has progressed on prior therapies.
