Abstract
The present invention provides methods of treating glioblastoma by administering an adenoviral vector that conditionally expresses IL-12 via gene switch under control of an oral activator ligand.
Claims44
A method of treating unifocal glioblastoma in a subject in need thereof comprising
- a. intratumorally injecting into the subject an adenoviral vector, wherein the vector comprises:
- i. a first polynucleotide encoding an IL-12 p40 polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence at least 85% identical to wild-type human IL-12 p40 polypeptide;
- ii. a second polynucleotide encoding an IL-12 p35 polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence at least 85% identical to wild-type human IL-12 p35 polypeptide;
- iii. a third polynucleotide encoding a VP-16 transactivation domain-retinoic acid-X-receptor fusion protein (VP-16-RXR);
- and
- iv. a fourth polynucleotide encoding a Gal4 DNA binding domain and an ecdysone receptor (EcR) binding domain fusion protein (Gal4-EcR), wherein the VP-16-RXR fusion protein and the Gal4-EcR fusion protein form a ligand dependent transcription factor complex;
- and
- b. orally administering to the subject a diacylhydrazine ligand that activates the ligand-dependent transcription factor complex,
- thereby treating the unifocal glioblastoma in the subject.
