Abstract
Background: A limitation of approved oncolytic viruses is their requirement for intratumoral (i.t.) injection. TILT-123 (igrelimogene litadenorepvec, Ad5/3-E2F-D24-hTNFα-IRES-hIL-2) is a chimeric oncolytic adenovirus suitable for intravenous (i.v.) delivery due to its capsid modification and dual selectivity devices. It is armed with tumor necrosis alpha and interleukin-2 for promoting T-cell activation and lymphocyte trafficking to tumors, thereby enhancing the antitumor immune response. Here, we present the findings after a single i.v. administration of TILT-123 in three phase I dose escalation clinical trials.
Methods: Patients with advanced solid tumors initially received a single i.v. dose of TILT-123 ranging from 3 × 109 to 4 × 1012 viral particles (VP). Blood was collected at baseline, 1, 16, and 192 h (7 days) post-treatment for bioavailability and serum analysis. Tumor biopsies were collected prior to treatment and 7 days post-treatment for analysis of viral presence and immunological effects. Patients did not receive any other cancer therapies during this period.
Results: Across all three trials (TUNIMO, TUNINTIL, and PROTA), 52 total patients were treated with i.v. TILT-123. Overall, TILT-123 was found to be well-tolerated, with no dose-limiting toxicities observed. Post-treatment tumor biopsies showed expression of viral genes, presence of TILT-123 adenovirus proteins or DNA, and changes in immune cell infiltration from baseline. Increased virus dose did not lead to increased virus detection in tumors. Median overall survival was longer in patients with confirmed presence of TILT-123 in post-treatment biopsies (280 versus 190 days, p = 0.0405).
Conclusion: TILT-123 demonstrated safety and significant intratumoral immunomodulation following a single i.v. administration, warranting further investigation.

期刊介绍：
The Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research is an esteemed peer-reviewed publication that focuses on cancer research, encompassing everything from fundamental discoveries to practical applications.
We welcome submissions that showcase groundbreaking advancements in the field of cancer research, especially those that bridge the gap between laboratory findings and clinical implementation. Our goal is to foster a deeper understanding of cancer, improve prevention and detection strategies, facilitate accurate diagnosis, and enhance treatment options.
We are particularly interested in manuscripts that shed light on the mechanisms behind the development and progression of cancer, including metastasis. Additionally, we encourage submissions that explore molecular alterations or biomarkers that can help predict the efficacy of different treatments or identify drug resistance. Translational research related to targeted therapies, personalized medicine, tumor immunotherapy, and innovative approaches applicable to clinical investigations are also of great interest to us.
We provide a platform for the dissemination of large-scale molecular characterizations of human tumors and encourage researchers to share their insights, discoveries, and methodologies with the wider scientific community.
By publishing high-quality research articles, reviews, and commentaries, the Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research strives to contribute to the continuous improvement of cancer care and make a meaningful impact on patients' lives.
