Among the plethora of defense mechanisms which a host elicits after pathogen invasion, type 1 interferons play a central role in regulating the immune system's response. They induce several interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) which play a diverse role once activated. Over the past few decades, there have been several studies exploring the role of ISGs in cancer and ISG15 is among the most studied for its pro and anti-tumorigenic role.

Immune checkpoint proteins (ICP) are currently one of the most novel and promising areas of immune-oncology research. This novel way of targeting tumor cells has shown favorable success over the past few years with some FDA approvals such as Ipilimumab, Nivolumab, Pembrolizumab etc. Currently, more than 3000 clinical trials of immunotherapeutic agents are ongoing with majority being ICPs.

A novel treatment strategy by co-targeting c-Myc and tumor stroma was explored in vemurafenib-resistant melanoma. BRD4 proteolysis targeting chimera (ARV-825) and nintedanib co-loaded PEGylated nanoliposomes (ARNIPL) were developed to incorporate a synergistic cytotoxic ratio. Both the molecules have extremely poor aqueous solubility.
