AI-Driven Structural Biology for Next-Generation Therapeutics Targeting Cancer-Associated Thrombosis and Metastasis

Cancer-associated thrombosis (CAT) is a major complication in oncology, contributing to poor outcomes and increased mortality. Elevated levels of von Willebrand factor (VWF) and activation of the contact system drive both thrombus formation and metastatic progression in aggressive cancers such as pancreatic and ovarian.
