Designing adenoviral vectors for tumor-specific targeting.

Abstract excerpt

Adenovirus provides an attractive candidate tool to destroy tumor cells. However, to fulfill the expectations, selective targeting of tumor cells is mandatory. This chapter reviews critical aspects in the design of tumor-targeted adenovirus vectors and oncolytic adenoviruses. The review focuses on genetic modifications of capsid and regulatory genes that can enhance the therapeutic index of these agents after...
