Abstract
An anticancer "magic bullet" should have both efficacy and specificity parts. We have used an effective Apop- tosis I nducer t o t rigger t he apoptosis. A lpha-fetoprotein w as us ed t o de liver A poptosis I nducers s pecifically t o cancer cells. The AFP-AI complex inhibited tumor growth in mice, enlarged mice life survival and has shown a 50% response in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer.
