We studied the immunotherapeutic potential of CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 oncolytic virus (OV) against gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis (GCPM). We collected fresh malignant ascites (MA) or peritoneal washings (PW) during routine paracenteses and diagnostic laparoscopies from GC patients (n = 27). Cells were analyzed for cancer cell markers and T cells, or treated with PBS, CF33-GFP, or CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 (MOI = 3). We analyzed infectivity, replication, cytotoxicity, CD107α upregulation of CD8 and CD4 T cells, CD274 (PD-L1) blockade of cancer cells by virus-encoded anti-PD-L1 scFv, and the release of growth factors and cytokines. We observed higher CD45/large-size cells and lower CD8 T cell percentages in MA than PW. CD45/large-size cells were morphologically malignant and expressed CD274 (PD-L1), CD252 (OX40L), and EGFR. CD4 and CD8 T cells did not express cell surface exhaustion markers. Virus infection and replication increased cancer cell death at 15 h and 48 h. CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 treatment produced functional anti-PD-L1 scFv, which blocked surface PD-L1 binding of live cancer cells and increased CD8CD107α and CD4CD107α T cell percentages while decreasing EGF, PDGF, soluble anti-PD-L1, and IL-10. CF33-OVs infect, replicate in, express functional proteins, and kill ex vivo GCPM cells with immune-activating effects. CF33-hNIS-antiPDL1 displays real potential for intraperitoneal GCPM therapy.
