GomikaUdugamasooriya

Conventional methods used to treat cancer, from non-specific chemotherapy to modern molecularly targeted drugs have generated limited results due to the complexity of the disease as well as lack of molecular classes that can be developed into treatments rapidly, easily and economically. Peptoids are class of peptidomimetics that are easy to synthesize and optimize and has been studied in different oncology applications as great biologically amenable compounds and can be considered as a promising alternative molecular class for anticancer drug developments.
