Research Abstract |
Although pediatric carcinomas have differentclinical and biological features from those of adult carcinomas, gene therapy for pediatric carcinoma has not been well developed. The present study aims to develop m-CRAs (conditionally replicating adenovirus targeting with multiple tumor-specific factors) that specifically treat cancer stem cells, leading to innovative therapy against pediatric carcinoma. First, we have established the methods to enrich and purify cancer stem cells in soft tissue sarcoma, giloblastoma, hepatoblastoma et al. Second, we revealed that our original m-CRAs efficiently treat cancer stem cells in such pediatric carcinoma.
