摘要:
Described herein are novel soluble chimeric fusion proteins comprising amino acid sequences derived from the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors flt-1 and KDR, including domain 4 of KDR. The claimed chimeric fusion proteins antagonize the endothelial cell proliferative and angiogenic activity of VEGF and are useful in the treatment of neovascularization-related disease.
摘要:
Agents and methods for enhancing recombinant virus transduction in the bladder epithelium are described. A first method involves contacting the luminal surface of the bladder with a composition comprising a transduction enhancing agent and an oncolytic virus. Alternatively, the luminal surface of the bladder can be contacted first with a pretreatment composition comprising a transduction enhancing agent and, subsequently, with a composition comprising an oncolytic virus. Bladder treatment compositions comprising a transduction enhancing agent and an oncolytic virus are also described.
摘要:
Adenovirus packaging cell lines for growth of an E1A/E1B deficient adenovirus that is substantially free of replication competent adenovirus (RCA) are provided. Methods for producing adenovirus substantially free of RCA are also provided, wherein the adenovirus is grown in a cell line containing coding sequences for adenovirus E1A and E1B, which are operably linked to promoters that lack polynucleotide sequences sharing substantial sequence identity with the native adenovirus E1A and E1B promoters.
摘要:
The present invention is directed to DNA sequence encoding angionenesis-inhibiting recombinant chimeric protein, the chimeric protein per se, the pharmaceutical use of the chimeric protein, and to the pharmaceutical composition containing the recombinant protein and the formulation thereof.

摘要:
Replication-competent adenoviral vectors which selectively replicate in cancer cells are provided. The replication-competent viral vectors comprise an E2F responsive promoter and/or a telomerase promoter operatively linked to an adenoviral coding region. The replication-competent adenoviral vectors effectively replicate in a variety of types of cancer cells and find broad utility in the treatment of cancer.
