Deletion of immunomodulatory genes as a novel approach to oncolytic vaccinia virus development

Vaccinia virus (VV) has emerged as a promising platform for oncolytic virotherapy. Many clinical VV candidates, such as the double-deleted VV, vvDD, are engineered with deletions that enhance viral tumor selectivity based on cellular proliferation rates. An alternative approach is to exploit the dam...
