摘要: Over the last 60 years an eclectic collection of microbes has been tested in a variety pre-clinical models as anti-cancer agents. At forefront this research are number virus-based platforms that have shown exciting activity and collectively referred to oncolytic viruses. Our true understanding potential limitations therapeutic modality substantially advanced through clinical studies carried out over 25 years. Perhaps not surprising, with all other cancer therapeutics, it become clear current virus therapeutics on their own unlikely be effective majority patients. The greatest gains will therefore made through thoughtful combination strategies built upon biology.
