Abstract
The present invention relates to an oncolytic virus which is, or is derived from, a clinical isolate which has been selected by comparing the abilities of a panel of three or more clinical isolates of the same viral species to kill tumor cells of two or more tumor cell lines in vitro and selecting a clinical isolate which is capable of killing cells of two or more tumor cell lines more rapidly and/or at a lower dose in vitro than one or more of the other clinical isolates in the panel.
Claims (20)
1 . An oncolytic virus which is a modified herpes simplex virus (HSV) 1 strain:
RH018A having the accession number ECACC 16121904;
RH004A having the accession number ECACC 16121902;
RH031A having the accession number ECACC 16121907;
RH040B having the accession number ECACC 16121908;
RH015A having the accession number ECACC 16121903;
RH021A having the accession number ECACC 16121905;
RH023 A having the accession number ECACC 16121906; or
RH047A having the accession number ECACC 16121909,
wherein said virus is modified to delete or alter expression of one or more viral genes and to express one or more heterologous genes.
2 . The oncolytic virus of claim 1 , which is a modified herpes simplex virus (HSV) 1 strain RH018A having the accession number ECACC 16121904, wherein said virus is modified to delete or alter expression of one or more viral genes and to express one or more heterologous genes.
3 . The oncolytic virus of claim 1 , wherein the ICP34.5 encoding-genes are rendered non-functional by the insertion of a heterologous gene and a promoter sequence operably linked thereto into each of the ICP34.5-encoding gene loci, and wherein the ICP47-encoding gene is deleted such that the US11 gene is placed under the control of the ICP47 promoter.
4 . The oncolytic virus of claim 1 , wherein more than one heterologous genes and promoter sequences are inserted into each of the ICP34.5-encoding gene loci.
5 . The oncolytic virus of claim 1 , wherein the heterologous genes comprise at least one fusogenic protein-encoding gene and at least one immune stimulatory protein-encoding gene.
6 . The oncolytic virus of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the fusogenic protein-encoding genes is a gene encoding the glycoprotein from gibbon ape leukemia virus (GALV) and has the R transmembrane peptide mutated or removed (GALV-R-).
7 . The oncolytic virus of claim 5 , wherein at least one of the immune stimulatory protein-encoding genes is GM-CSF, a GITR agonist, a 4-1-BB agonist, an OX40 agonist, an ICOS agonist, a CD40 agonist or a CTLA-4 inhibitor.
8 . The oncolytic virus of claim 5 , wherein:
(a) the sequence of the heterologous gene encoding the fusogenic protein and/or the sequence of the heterologous gene encoding the immune stimulatory protein is codon optimized so as to increase expression levels in target cells; and/or
(b) the fusogenic protein-encoding gene and/or the immune stimulatory protein-encoding gene are inserted into the virus genome in a back to back orientation in relation to each other.
9 . A pharmaceutical composition comprising an oncolytic virus of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.
