Research Abstract |
Mycobacteriuma bovis bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) intravesical therapy is a cancer immunotherapy which has been established. However, it is not applicable to metastatic lesion because of side effects caused by live bacteria. We have developed a small-diameter particles of liposome BCG-CWS (cell wall skeleton) with a view to industrialization.
