Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
Interferon gamma (166 aa, ~19 kDa) is encoded by the human IFNG gene. This protein is involved in antiviral activity, macrophage activation, antiproliferative activity and immunopotentiation.

Interferon gamma has been investigated in 4 clinical trials, of which 3 are open and 1 is closed. Of the trials investigating interferon gamma, 1 is early phase 1 (1 open), 2 are phase 1 (1 open), and 1 is phase 1/phase 2 (1 open).

ERBB2 Amplification, HER2 Overexpression, and HER2 Positive are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for interferon gamma clinical trials.

Acute myeloid leukemia, breast carcinoma, and malignant solid tumor are the most common diseases being investigated in interferon gamma clinical trials [2].
