ABSTRACT
Gene therapy with adenoviral vectors can eliminate neoplasic
cells through selective replication and/or through pro-apoptotic,
immunogenic or suicide gene expression. However, an adenoviral
vector may provide anti-cancerous effects even in the
absence of replication or therapeutic gene expression. The present
study evaluates the therapeutic effects caused by the administration
of an adenoviral vector, alone, in HPV- dependent
neoplasias (HPV-N).
In vivo trials were carried out in two
HPV-N mouse models. One model was immunocompetent and
the other was immunodeficient. In both models, the effect of
intratumoral administration of saline solution (PBS) was
compared with administration of an adenoviral vector that
had no replicative capacity or therapeutic gene (Ad-BGal). In
the immunocompetent mice, Ad-BGal adenoviral vector administration
significantly reduced tumor growth, compared with
PBS. No differences were observed in the immunodeficient
mice. In conclusion, the present study lends support to the use
of adenoviral vectors in HPV-N treatment since they are capable
of generating an antitumoral effect in immunocompetent
individuals, even in the absence of a therapeutic gene or viral
vector replication.
