Malignant gliomas remain amongst the most difficult cancer to treat. Viral-based gene therapies have been employed for the last decade in preclinical and clinical modes as a novel treatment modality. In this review, such therapies are summarized. The overwhelming majority of clinical studies point one to conclude that methodologies that will increase tumor infection/transduction will lead to enhanced therapeutic results.
恶性胶质瘤仍然是最难治疗的癌症之一。在过去十年中,基于病毒的基因疗法已被用于临床前和临床模式,作为一种新型治疗方式。在这篇综述中,总结了此类疗法。绝大多数临床研究都指向一个结论,即能够增加肿瘤感染/转导的方法将带来更好的治疗效果。
