Interleukin-17 (IL-17) released in the tumor microenvironment in response to drugs blocking vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) triggers stromal-derived inflammatory and VEGF-independent angiogenic programs that induce the drug refractoriness found in cancers resistant to anti-angiogenic therapy (pages 1114–1123).
