What are Some Successful Applications of Viral Vectors in Cancer Therapy?
There have been several successful applications of viral vectors in cancer therapy. For example, the FDA-approved drug Talimogene laherparepvec (T-VEC), an oncolytic virus derived from herpes simplex virus, is used to treat melanoma. Another example is the use of lentiviral vectors in CAR-T cell therapy, where T cells are engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors that target cancer cells.
