VEGF(121)/rGel, a fusion protein composed of the growth factor VEGF(121) and the recombinant toxin gelonin (rGel), targets the tumor neovasculature and exerts impressive cytotoxic effects by inhibiting protein synthesis. We evaluated the effect of VEGF(121)/rGel on the growth of metastatic MDA-MB-231 tumor cells in SCID mice. VEGF(121)/rGel treatment reduced surface lung tumor foci by 58% compared to controls (means were 22.4 and 53.3, respectively; P
