Frequently asked questions about Interferon-beta

What is Interferon-beta used for in Glioblastoma Multiforme?

Interferon-beta is being studied as a gene therapy for Glioblastoma Multiforme, a type of brain cancer. It is delivered through gene transfer to potentially treat the tumor. The therapy is in Phase 1 clinical development and remains investigational, meaning it has not been approved for use.

Who makes Interferon-beta?

Interferon-beta is being developed by Biogen Inc., a biopharmaceutical company traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker BIIB. The company is conducting clinical research on this gene therapy for Glioblastoma Multiforme.

What phase is Interferon-beta in?

Interferon-beta is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational gene therapy for Glioblastoma Multiforme and has not been approved by regulatory authorities. The Phase 1 trial has been completed.

What clinical trials is Interferon-beta in?

Interferon-beta has one completed Phase 1 clinical trial, identified as NCT00031083. The study was a dose escalation trial to determine the safety of IFN-Beta gene transfer in the treatment of Grade III and Grade IV gliomas, including Glioblastoma Multiforme. It enrolled 12 participants in the United States.

How does Interferon-beta work?

Interferon-beta works through gene transfer, a method of delivering the interferon-beta gene into cells to produce the therapeutic protein. This approach is being evaluated for its safety in treating Glioblastoma Multiforme and other high-grade gliomas.

Is Interferon-beta the same as IFN-Beta?

Yes, Interferon-beta is also known as IFN-Beta. The clinical trial NCT00031083 refers to the therapy as IFN-Beta gene transfer, and it is the same investigational gene therapy being developed by Biogen Inc. for Glioblastoma Multiforme.
