Global Clinical Landscape & Future Outlook

The race for ISG15 therapeutics is intensifying, with major players shifting focus from traditional intracellular targets to targeting extracellular ISG15 as an immunomodulatory cytokine. As first-generation therapies reach the clinic, the next wave of R&D is targeting the dual nature of ISG15—acting both as a ubiquitin-like modifier (intracellular ISGylation) and as an alarmin/cytokine in the tumor microenvironment (TME).
