  • Publication number: 20100196370
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an LK8-Fc fusion protein, which has increased angiogenesis inhibitory activity and in vivo stability. More specifically, relates to an LK8-Fc fusion protein in which an LK8 protein having angiogenesis inhibitory activity is fused with the Fc region of human immunoglobulin IgG1, as well as a composition for treating cancer, which contains the fusion protein. The LK8-Fc fusion protein has not only angiogenesis inhibitory activity leading to anticancer and metastasis inhibitory activities, but also a very long in vivo half-life, and thus can be used as a more efficient and economic cancer therapeutic agent or cancer inhibitor.
