Overview

NCI Definition [1]:
A recombinant form of the endogenous heterodimeric cytokine interleukin-12 with potential antineoplastic activity. Recombinant interleukin-12 binds to and activates its cell-surface receptor, stimulating the production of interferon-gamma (IFN) which, in turn, induces IFN-gamma-inducible protein-10 (IP-10) and so inhibits tumor angiogenesis. (NCI04)

Recombinant interleukin-12 has been investigated in 2 clinical trials, of which 2 are open and 0 are closed. Of the trials investigating recombinant interleukin-12, 1 is phase 1 (1 open) and 1 is phase 2 (1 open).

ER Negative, ER No Expression, and HER2 Deficient Expression are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for recombinant interleukin-12 clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma and malignant solid tumor are the most common diseases being investigated in recombinant interleukin-12 clinical trials [2].
