Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated the efficacy of combination therapy using oncolytic adenovirus; OBP-401 which could replicate only within the tumor cells selectively and express green fluorescent protein (GFP) and chemotherapeutic agent, paclitaxel (PTX). OBP-401 synergistically suppressed the viability of two kinds of human SGC cells in combination with PTX in vitro. And PTX enhanced the efficacy of OBP-401 replication, resulted in synergistic effect. Peritoneal metastatic cells were visualized as GFP-positive cells selectively by the intra-peritoneal (i.p.) administration of OBP-401 in the orthotopic mouse model. The combination therapy with i.p. administration of OBP-401 and PTX could also significantly inhibited the tumor growth in vivo.
