Therapy with tumor-selective viruses is emerging as a treatment option for this devastating disease. In this study we characterize the anti-glioma effect of VCN-01, an improved hyaluronidase-armed pRB-pathway-selective oncolytic adenovirus that has proven safe and effective in the treatment of several solid tumors. VCN-01 displayed a significant cytotoxic effect on glioma cells in vitro. In vivo, in two different orthotopic glioma models, a single intra-tumoral administration of VCN-01 increased overall survival significantly and led to long-term survivors free of disease.10 p.application/pdfengcc by (c) Vera et al., 2016http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/GliomaAdenovirusGliomasAdenovirusesCharacterization of the Antiglioma Effect of the Oncolytic Adenovirus VCN-01info:eu-repo/semantics/article2018-07-25info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess26808201
