| Metronomic chemotherapy refers to the therapeutic strategy of administering chemotherapeutic drugs at relatively low, minimally toxic doses on a frequent or continuous schedule without extended rest periods. This dosing regimen contrasts with traditional maximum tolerated dose (MTD) chemotherapy, which involves high doses given intermittently with breaks to allow patient recovery. -The drugs are given in lower doses and more frequently (often daily or multiple times a week) -Aims to consistently impair tumor growth mechanisms and potentially minimize the chance for cancer cells to recover -Aims to consistently impair tumor growth mechanisms and potentially minimize the chance for cancer cells to recover -With a lower dose intensity, patients often experience fewer and less severe side effects |

| (TSP-1) is the first reported endogenous anti-angiogenic factor that can inhibit angiogenesis and tumorigenesis. Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1) is a glycoprotein that plays a significant role in various biological processes, including cell adhesion, migration, and angiogenesis. It is part of the thrombospondin family of proteins and is known for its ability to regulate the formation of new blood vessels (angiogenesis) and modulate the immune response. TSP-1 is often considered a tumor suppressor because it can inhibit angiogenesis by binding to and activating certain receptors on endothelial cells, leading to reduced blood vessel formation. This can limit the supply of nutrients and oxygen to tumors, potentially inhibiting their growth. |
