Definitions |
A non-glycosylated recombinant interferon with antiviral and antineoplastic activities. Alfa interferons bind to specific cell-surface receptors, resulting in the transcription and translation of genes whose protein products mediate antiviral, antiproliferative, anticancer, and immune-modulating effects. Check for "https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/clinical-trials/intervention/C1953" active clinical trials using this agent.
