摘要:
The present invention is directed to a method of extracting virus, particularly reovirus, from a culture of cells. Infectious virus can be extracted from the culture with a detergent at a convenient temperature such as 25° C. or 37° C. to produce high virus titers. Both ionic and non-ionic detergents can be used in the present invention.
摘要:
A simple and efficient method of producing mammalian reovirus is developed using HEK 293 cells. The method provides for fast production of reovirus in high yield. Furthermore, this method provides for a simpler purification procedure of the produced reovirus.
摘要:
Provided herein are methods for treating a proliferative disorder in a subject comprising administering to the subject one or more reoviruses and one or more agents that modulate expression or activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines. For example, the agents may inhibit expression or activity of pro-inflammatory cytokines.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method of increasing the sensitivity of neoplastic cells to chemotherapeutic agents by using a virus, a method of treating proliferative disorders with a virus and chemotherapeutic agents, and a method for preventing a neoplasm from developing drug resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. The virus is preferably a reovirus.
摘要:
Provided herein is a mutant reovirus (e.g., a genetically-engineered ISVP). Compositions including mutant reoviruses and methods of using such mutant reoviruses are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention pertains to methods for preventing reovirus recognition in the treatment of cellular proliferative disorders, and particularly ras-mediated cellular proliferative disorders, in mammals. The method comprises suppressing or otherwise inhibiting the immune system of the mammal and, concurrently or subsequently, administering to the proliferating cells an effective amount of one or more reoviruses under conditions which result in substantial lysis of the proliferating cells. The methods may include the selective removal of immune constituents that may interfere with the systemic delivery of the virus; preventing reovirus recognition by the host immune system; and removal of the virus from an immune suppressed or immune incompetent host following treatment with reovirus. Alternatively, reovirus may be administered to a mammal with a diminished immune response system under conditions which result in substantial lysis of the proliferating cells.

摘要:
Methods for treating cell proliferative disorders by administering virus to proliferating cells having an activated Ras-pathway are disclosed. The virus is administered so that it ultimately directly contacts proliferating cells having an activated Ras-pathway. Proliferative disorders include but are not limited to neoplasms. The virus is selected from modified adenovirus, modified HSV, modified vaccinia virus and modified parapoxvirus orf virus. Also disclosed are methods for treating cell proliferative disorders by further administering a immunosuppressive agent.

摘要:
Provided herein are methods for treating or ameliorating a proliferative disorder in a subject. The method contains the steps of administering to the subject one dose of an immunosuppressive agent followed by administering to the subject one to five doses of a reovirus. The immunosuppressive agent is administered to the subject at least about 72 hours prior to administration of the reovirus. Also provided herein are methods for treating or ameliorating a proliferative disorder in a subject including the steps of administering to the subject an oncolytic virus and a B-cell modulating agent. Also provided are kits and pharmaceutical compositions containing an oncolytic virus and at least one B-cell modulating agent.
