Oncolytic Virotherapy: Mechanisms of Action and Cancer Treatment Insights

This figure illustrates the mechanism of oncolytic virotherapy, emphasizing its unique ability to selectively replicate in cancer cells while sparing normal tissues. Key processes include viral replication, targeted cell killing, and subsequent virus release and spread within the tumor microenvironment. The foundational research by Kirn et al. (2001) lays out the biological principles and risk management strategies associated with this innovative cancer treatment. Subsequent clinical trial results by Liu et al. (2007) highlight a decade of advancements in unlocking the potential of oncolytic virotherapy for cancer care.
