Preferred Label : Oncolytic Vesicular Stomatitis Virus;
NCIt synonyms : Oncolytic VSV; Oncolytic Adenovirus YSCH-01;
NCIt definition : A recombinant form of oncolytic vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), with potential immunomodulating
and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration, oncolytic VSV preferentially replicates
in tumor cells. This induces VSV-mediated cytolytic activity towards the tumor cells.
VSV, a single-stranded RNA virus belonging to the genus Vesiculovirus of the family
Rhabdoviridae, is relatively nonpathogenic to healthy humans but is able to rapidly
replicate in and induce apoptosis of tumor cells.;
