    AbstractBoth capecitabine and bevacizumab are established agents in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer, but until recently clinical data supporting their use in combination were limited. We review available data on the capecitabine-bevacizumab combination in breast cancer, particularly results from the RIBBON-1 trial in the first-line setting, and we discuss these findings in light of previous studies. We also examine ongoing trials investigating capecitabine-bevacizumab combination therapy.Copyright © 2012. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
