Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The viral therapy is a new treatment of enhanced tumor-selective viral replication and cell killing. G47Δ is a third-generation oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) that has triple mutations created in the HSV-1 genome. G47Δ can actually induce systemic antitumor immunity by activating natural killer cells and Th1 cells. We believe G47Δ will become a standard treatment for malignant tumors.
