Development of an immunotherapeutic adenovirus targeting hormone-independent prostate cancer

· 0 citations · 25 references

TL;DR

A replication-competent adenovirus was successfully designed to replicate conditionally in PSA-positive and PSMA-positive prostate cancer cells, and this construct would be expected to have potent antitumor effects and deserves more extensive investigation.

Targeting pancreatic cancer with adenoviral vectors equipped with transgenes.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most lethal cancers, and current therapeutics provide limited benefits to patients. Desmoplasia and the highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) play a huge role in PDAC being elusive to current therapeutics. Here, we strategically selected four transge...

An oncolytic virus armed with fowl adenovirus fiber-modified recombinant TRAIL enhances tumor targeting and immunotherapy activity.

Oncolytic viruses have emerged as a promising strategy in cancer immunotherapy and have been applied to the treatment of various tumors. We previously demonstrated that oncolytic adenoviruses engineered expressing tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) could induce apoptosis in tumor cells and...

Dendritic-cell-targeting adeno-associated virus as potent cancer vaccine carriers

The clinical efficacy of therapeutic cancer vaccines is critically limited by the inefficient in vivo delivery of tumor antigens to dendritic cells (DCs), the key regulators of T-cell immunity. To address this issue, we developed a dendritic-cell-targeting adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector through ra...

Intratumor delivery of a novel plasmid combination induces high levels of metastatic melanoma regression.

Direct intratumoral administration of immune-stimulating agents can generate systemic immunity following a tumor-localized immune response. Interleukin 12 (IL-12) activates T cells and reverses immunosuppression, generating a localized patient-antigen-specific immune response. Changes in the tumor microenvironment in r...

A Transgenic mouse tolerant to syngeneic cancer cells expressing truncated human epidermal growth factor receptor

C57BL/6 mice in which a truncated variant of human EGFR (hEGFRt), lacking the ligand binding domain and cytoplasmic domain, is expressed from the CAG regulatory elements comprised of the CMV enhancer, β-actin promoter, and β-globin poly-adenylation signals are developed.

Next-generation Oncolytic Virotherapy: Genetic Engineering, Immune Modulation, Advanced Delivery Platforms and Clinical Progress

Oncolytic Virotherapy (OVT) is an emerging area of cancer immunotherapy that has shown promise as a therapeutic agent, leveraging genetically engineered replication- competent viruses that kill cancer cells without harming normal cells. HSV-1 (T-VEC), vaccinia, and adenoviruses. Immuno-Oncology Oncol Ther 2017; Mon...
