Bladder cancer therapy using a conformationally fluid tumoricidal peptide complex

Bladder cancer therapy using a conformationally fluid tumoricidal peptide complex

Partially unfolded alpha-lactalbumin forms an oleic acid complex with antitumorigenic properties. Here, the authors define a structurally flexible, peptide-based oleate complex and report a phase I/II clinical trial where this complex is used to treat patients with bladder cancer.
