Scientific researches done on transfer factor molecules so far indicate strong immunotherapeutical effect of the molecules in case of cancer disease, immune disorders (allergies, autoimmune diseases, HIV) and infections (viral, bacterial, fungal).

The leading immunologists from all around the world founded THE INTERNATIONAL TRANSFER FACTOR SOCIETY (ITFS). The purpose of the society is to promote, stimulate and coordinate the exchange of ideas related to studies of transfer factors and other immunoregulators present in human or animal leukocyte dialysates. ITFS is a scholarly organization. The Society claims it does not endorse any commercial product purported to have Transfer Factor and/or other immunological activities, nor does it endorse any commercial organization representing that it is producing such products. See the official ITFS website: http://www.med.unibo.it/itfs/
