Summary

This study tests whether bevacizumab, a drug that blocks blood vessel growth, can reduce chronic bleeding and iron deficiency anemia in people with hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia (HHT). HHT causes abnormal, fragile blood vessels that bleed easily. The trial enrolled 33 adults with HHT to receive bevacizumab and will measure changes in bleeding and anemia over time.
