Cancer treatment has evolved from broad-spectrum chemotherapy to targeted, molecularly-guided therapies, and peptides are increasingly playing a central role in this transformation. Therapeutic peptides can target tumors with high precision, disrupt cancer cell functions, or modulate the immune response—all with lower toxicity compared to small-molecule drugs.

At GenCefe Biotech, we support the development of anticancer peptide therapeutics through advanced synthesis, modification, and quality control technologies. Our custom services help researchers explore and validate peptide candidates for preclinical and translational studies.

Roles of Peptides in Cancer Therapy:

1. Tumor-Targeting Peptides
These peptides bind specifically to tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) or receptors overexpressed on cancer cells, enabling targeted drug delivery and imaging.

2. Pro-Apoptotic Peptides
Peptides can be designed to induce apoptosis in cancer cells by disrupting mitochondrial integrity or activating caspase pathways.

3. Peptide-Drug Conjugates (PDCs)
Combining cytotoxic agents with targeting peptides enhances the selectivity and therapeutic index of cancer treatments.

4. Immune-Modulating Peptides
Certain peptides can activate cytotoxic T-cells, act as checkpoint inhibitors, or reverse immune suppression in the tumor microenvironment.

Clinical Advantages:

● Lower systemic toxicity

● High selectivity and receptor binding affinity

● Ease of synthesis and modification

● Compatible with combination therapy strategies

GenCefe’s Cancer Peptide Services:
