Tasonermin, is a copy of the human protein tumour necrosis factor alfa-1a (TNF-alfa). The exact way that TNF-alfa works against certain types of cancer is not fully understood, but it is thought that it can kill tumour cells directly, as well as destroy the blood vessels supplying tumours and stimulate the immune system to attack them. This leads to the tumour dying back and getting smaller, particularly when the medicine is combined with other cytotoxic (cell-killing) medicines and raised temperature.
