NCIt definition : A humanized monoclonal antibody directed against interferon-gamma (IFN-g) with immunomodulatory
activity. Fontolizumab binds to and prevents the activity of IFN-g. This leads to
a suppression of IFN-g-mediated signaling and thus a suppression of IFN-g immune related
responses. IFN-g is a cytokine often overexpressed in various auto-immune diseases.;
