Infected Cell Carriers: A New Strategy for Systemic Delivery of Oncolytic Measles Viruses in Cancer Virotherapy
13 Dec 2006
Abstract excerpt
Attenuated measles viruses (MVs) propagate selectively in human tumor cells, and phase I clinical trials are currently underway to test their oncolytic activity. A major theoretical impediment to systemic MV application is the presence of pre-existing antiviral immunity. We hypothesized that autologous MV-infected cells might be a more reliable vehicle than cell-free virions to deliver the infection to tumor...
