Gene; T-VEC;
NCIt definition : An ICP34.5, ICP47-deleted, oncolytic herpes simplex type-1 virus (HSV-1) based on
the JS1 strain, and encoding the immunostimulating factor human cytokine granulocyte-macrophage
colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) with potential immunostimulating and antineoplastic
activities. Upon intratumoral injection, talimogene laherparepvec selectively infects
and replicates in tumor cells, thereby inducing tumor cell lysis. In addition, GM-CSF
attracts dendritic cells (DCs) and may stimulate a cytotoxic T cell response against
tumor cells, which results in immune-mediated tumor cell death. Deletion of the gene
encoding for ICP34.5 provides tumor selectivity and prevents replication in healthy
cells. As ICP47 blocks antigen presentation in HSV-infected cells, deletion of this
gene may induce a more potent antitumor immune response in the tumor cells. Additionally,
deletion of ICP47 causes increased expression of the HSV US11 gene and allows US11
to be expressed as an immediate early and not a late gene. This further enhances the
degree of viral replication and oncolysis of tumor cells.;
