Abstract

Replication-competent adenoviral vectors which selectively replicate in cancer cells are provided. The replication-competent viral vectors comprise an E2F responsive promoter and/or a telomerase promoter operatively linked to an adenoviral coding region. The replication-competent adenoviral vectors effectively replicate in a variety of types of cancer cells and find broad utility in the treatment of cancer.

Claims (6)

1. A recombinant viral vector comprising an adenoviral nucleic acid sequence, wherein said nucleic acid sequence comprises in sequential order: a left inverted terminal repeat (ITR), an adenoviral packaging signal, an E2F responsive promoter operatively linked to an E1a coding sequence, a telomerase (TERT) promoter operatively linked to an E1b coding sequence and a right ITR, wherein said recombinant viral vector comprises SEQ ID NO:5.

2. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the adenoviral vector of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

3. A method of selective cytolysis of a cancer cell, comprising contacting a cell population with an effective amount of an adenoviral vector comprising an adenoviral nucleic acid sequence presented as SEQ ID NO: 5, wherein said nucleic acid sequence comprises in sequential order: a left inverted terminal repeat (ITR), an adenoviral packaging signal, an E2F responsive promoter operatively linked to an E1a coding sequence, a telomerase (TERT) promoter operatively linked to an E1b coding sequence and a right ITR, under conditions where the adenoviral vector infects the cells of the cell population resulting in selectively cytolysis of cancer cells within said cell population.

4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising a mutation or deletion in an E3 coding sequence.

5. The method of claim 3 , wherein at least one E3 coding sequence has been deleted from the adenoviral nucleic acid sequence.

6. The method of claim 3 , wherein an E3 coding sequence in the nucleic acid sequence codes for at least one native E3 protein.
