abstract: Interferons, which have been studied for many years as antiviral agents, are now receiving considerable attention as antitumor and immunomodulatory agents. The data to date are sufficiently interesting to warrant further studies on several fronts. Clearly, the results that have been obtained so far tend to pose more questions than they answer.
