Avastin was a new class of anticancer drug when XVIVO was asked to create this interactive MOA. The game’s intro animation and video defines the mechanism of disease and sets up the story. Game play was defined by the MOA of Avastin where players use Avastin bullets to take aim at VEGF molecules given off by the tumor to prevent them from stimulating capillary growth into the tumor.
