Tumor Necrosis Factor Family Protein

Definitions

A recombinant therapeutic agent which is chemically identical to or similar to one of a number of endogenous tumor necrosis factor (TNF) proteins. TNF family cytokines bind to and activate specific cell-surface receptors, thereby mediating inflammatory processes, cell proliferation, immunity, angiogenesis, and tumor cell cytotoxicity. One primary antitumor effect of TNFs involves stimulation of T cell-mediated antitumor cytotoxicity. Check for "https://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/treatment/clinical-trials/intervention/C1941" active clinical trials using this agent.
