Overview

Guna-IFN γ is a low-dose pharmaceutical formulation of recombinant human interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) developed by Guna S.p.a. using Sequential Kinetic Activation (SKA) technology. This formulation delivers the cytokine at physiological concentrations (typically in the picogram to femtogram per milliliter range), intended to modulate the immune system rather than provide the high-dose pharmacological effects associated with conventional interferon therapy. The mechanism of action focuses on enhancing Natural Killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity and balancing the Th1/Th2 immune response. It is primarily investigated for its immunomodulatory potential in treating allergic asthma, eczema (atopic dermatitis), and as an adjuvant therapy in colorectal cancer. Additionally, it has been studied in veterinary medicine for managing feline herpesvirus 1 (FHV-1) infections.
