CLA is found in grass fed ruminant products. It is also available in supplement. Here are some interesting links with abstracts. The middle one is very informative.
As usual check it out for yourself etc.

ROSWELL PARK FACULTY MEMBER PRESENTS AT NATIONAL BREAST CANCER RESEARCH MEETING
BUFFALO, NY – Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) decreases blood vessel formation –slowing tumor growth - according to the results of a Roswell Park Cancer Institute (RPCI) study presented at the third Era of Hope meeting for the Department of Defense Breast Cancer Research Program, September 25-28, in Orlando, FL.

Strong Evidence of Anti-Cancer Effects
Over the past 18 years, numerous medical and nutritional scientists have published research that validates and expands on the Wisconsin team’s groundbreaking work. Thanks to their efforts, we now know that CLA isomers, when added to the diets of laboratory animals, protect the animals against experimentally induced breast cancer, colon tumors, and skin cancer. These effects occurred regardless of whether the CLA was given during or after tumor initiation.3,5,24,25
Mounting evidence suggests that CLA’s anti-tumor activity comes primarily from the c9t11 isomer. The evidence for CLA’s ability to decrease the incidence, progression, tumor burden, and number of metastases in models of breast, prostate, skin, and colon cancer had grown so convincing by the mid-1990s that the National Academy of Sciences published a statement in 1996 declaring, “[CLA] is the only fatty acid shown unequivocally to inhibit carcinogenesis in experimental animals.”26.....
