Oncolytic adenoviruses
The therapeutic efficacy of oncolytic viruses including adenovirus has been thought to depend mostly on direct viral destruction of tumor cells. However, this view has changed with the discovery that oncolysis can also induce innate and antigen-specific adaptive immunity against the tumor. Here we summarize our findings from cancer patients.
متن کاملOncolytic Adenoviruses in Gastrointestinal Cancers
Gastrointestinal malignancies are challenging cancers with considerable economic and societal impacts on health care systems worldwide. While advances in surgical approaches have provided benefits to a proportion of patients, only modest improvements have been attained in the treatment of patients with advanced disease, resulting in limited improvement in survival rates in these patients. Oncol...
متن کاملOncolytic Adenoviruses in Cancer Treatment
The therapeutic use of viruses against cancer has been revived during the last two decades. Oncolytic viruses replicate and spread inside tumors, amplifying their cytotoxicity and simultaneously reversing the tumor immune suppression. Among different viruses, recombinant adenoviruses designed to replicate selectively in tumor cells have been clinically tested by intratumoral or systemic adminis...
متن کاملCancer gene therapy with oncolytic adenoviruses.
Metastatic cancer remains difficult to treat effectively and treatments are in most cases not curative despite significant side effects. Novel, targeted approaches such as gene therapy hold promise for the treatment of various tumor types. Among the most promising cancer gene therapy approaches are oncolytic adenoviruses, which are able to infect, replicate in and lyse tumor cells. Recent data ...
