Albinterferon Alfa-2b

Preferred Label : Albinterferon Alfa-2b;

NCIt synonyms : Human Serum Albumin (585 Residues) Fusion Protein with Human Interferon Alpha-2 (165 Residues); 1-585-Serum Albumin (Human) Fusion Protein with Interferon Alpha-2b (Human);

NCIt definition : A long-acting, recombinant fusion polypeptide consisting of interferon alpha-2b (IFNa-2b) linked to human albumin (alb-IFN), with antiviral and immunomodulatory activity. Albinterferon alpha-2b binds to specific cell-surface receptors, resulting in the expression of genes whose protein products mediate antiviral, antiproliferative, and immune-modulating effects. Conjugation of interferon to human albumin prolongs the half-life of IFNa-2b and thereby allows for a reduction in the frequency of dosing.;
