Deletion of F4L (ribonucleotide reductase) in Vaccinia Virus Produces a Selective Oncolytic Virus and Promotes Anti-tumor Immunity with Superior Safety in Bladder Cancer
DownloadFall 2017
Overall recurrence of non-muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) can be as high as 80% within 5 years of initial treatment. High-grade NMIBC has the greatest risk of recurrence and treatment for these patients includes surgery followed by intravesical therapy with the immunotherapeutic agent...
