106POncolysis dominated therapeutic effect of LCMV-GP – pseudotyped vesicular stomatitis virus in a syngeneic lung cancer model

Background: The therapeutic effect of oncolytic virotherapy is mediated largely by two mechanisms; direct oncolysis due to tumor-selective viral replication and the simultaneous activation of innate and adaptive immune responses with the potential of long-lasting tumor remissions. The chimeric vesicular stomatitis virus pseudotyped with LCMV glycoprotein (VSV-GP) has been previously reported to have both a rapid lytic cycle and a broad tumor tropism. In this study, we demonstrate its therapeutic potential in the syngeneic lung cancer model LLC1.
