NCIt definition : A recombinant vaccinia virus encoding carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA). CEA is overexpressed in several cancer cell types, including gastrointestinal, breast, and non-small cell lung cancers.

Vaccination with this agent may evoke a cytotoxic immune response to CEA-expressing cells. (NCI04);
