DRUG

Bevacizumab

Metastatic colorectal cancer (FDA 2004) and other malignancies

23 hypotheses across 8 therapeutic domains

CROSS-DOMAIN PATTERN

Same drug, multiple disease domains

Bevacizumab appears in hypotheses across 8 disease domains: ALS, Alzheimer, Depression, Epilepsy, Inflammatory bowel disease, Multiple sclerosis, Rheumatoid arthritis, Type 2 diabetes. Shared mediators that recur across at least two of those domains: VEGF.

Aggregated from the catalog. Biological interpretation of any multi-indication mechanism would require independent validation — this is a structural observation only.
