Summary

It is demonstrated that blockade of VEGFR1 activity neither prevents nor changes the rate of spontaneous metastasis formation after primary tumor removal, and prevention of metastasis will require further identification and exploration of cellular and molecular pathways that mediate the priming of the metastatic soil.
