Abstract:
321 Background: Multimodality therapies are used to manage patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), although advanced HCC is incurable. The third-generation oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) T-01 replicates efficiently and selectively in tumor cells, kills tumor cells without damaging the surrounding normal tissues, and induces host immune responses specific to tumor cells. Here we investigated the antitumor effects of T-01 on HCC. Methods: The cytopathic activities of T-01 were tested at different multiplicities of infection in 14 human and one murine hepatoma cell lines in vitro. In mouse various xenograft models, HuH-7, KYN-2, PLC/PRF/5 and HepG2 human cells and Hepa1-6 murine cells were used to investigate the in vivo efficacy of T-01. Results: T-01 was cytotoxic to 13 cell lines (in vitro), including 10 human HCCs, two human hepatoblastomas, and one murine hepatoma. In mouse xenograft models of subcutaneous, orthotopic, and peritoneal tumor metastasis in athymic mice (BALB/c nu/nu), the growth of tumors formed by the HCC cell lines HuH-7, KYN-2, and PLC/PRF/5 as well as those formed by the hepatoblastoma cell line HepG2 was inhibited by T-01 compared with that of mock-inoculated tumors. In a bilateral Hepa1-6 subcutaneous tumor model in C57BL/6 mice, the growth of tumors inoculated with T-01 was inhibited and, in the contralateral tumors without T-01, T-01 also significantly reduced tumor growth compared with mock-infected tumors. T-01 infection significantly enhanced antitumor efficacy via T cell-mediated immune responses. Conclusions: These results demonstrate that a third-generation oncolytic HSV-1 may serve as a novel treatment for patients with HCC.
