Interferon A type of biological response modifier (a substance that can improve the body s natural response to disease). [Pg.19]

Biological response modifiers are drugs that enhance the patients natural response to cancer. They are used only in specific types of cancer, usually if more conventional chemotherapy has failed. [Pg.187]

Several natural dietary supplements are commonly accepted to benefit the immune system, i.e., act as biological response modifiers that stimulate nonspecific immunity. Among these are various synthetic and biological agents, each with completely different chemical stractures. Herbs such as... [Pg.612]

Interferon A biological response modifier (a substance that can improve the body s natural response to disease). Interferons interfere with the division of cancer cells and can slow tumor growth. There are several types of interferons, including interferon-alpha, -beta, and -gamma. These substances are normally produced by the body. They are also made in the laboratory for use in treating cancer and other diseases. [NIH]... [Pg.134]

When given i.v. to mice, poly(ICLC) augmented natural killer cell activity in peritoneal cells, lungs and spleen. Figure 5 shows some typical results. There are many biological response modifiers that can augment NK cell activity, after one or two treatments, but then they lose their effectiveness. Mice do not develop this refractoriness after treat-... [Pg.210]

Biopharmaceuticals are mainly protein-based molecules, which are copies of natural biological compounds. The aim of these biopharmaceuticals is to modify or alter the undesirable biological responses in our body in the disease states. Biopharmaceuticals have molecular weights of tens of thousands of daltons, unlike the small molecule drugs of mostly less than 500 Da. [Pg.131]
