Abstract
Methods for treating prostate cancer involving the administration of a compound that selectively inhibits pathological production of human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are described.

The compound may be administered as a single-agent therapy or in combination with one or more additional therapies to a human in need of such treatment.
