Recombinant oncolytic viruses represent a promising alternative option for the treatment of malignant cancers. We have previously reported the safety and efficacy of recombinant vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) vectors in a rat model of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the full potential of VSV therapy is limited by a sudden decline in intratumoral virus replication observed early after viral administration, a phenomenon which coincides with an accumulation of inflammatory cells within infected lesions. To overcome the anti-viral function of these cells, we present a recombinant virus, rVSV-UL141, which expresses a protein from human cytomegalovirus known to downregulate the NK cell-activating ligand CD155. The modified vector resulted in an inhibition of NK cell recruitment in vitro, as well as decreased intra-tumoral accumulations of NK and NKT cells in vivo. Administration of rVSV-UL141 via hepatic artery infusion in immune-competent Buffalo rats harboring orthotopic, multifocal HCC lesions, resulted in a one-log elevation of intratumoral virus replication over a control rVSV vector, which translated to enhanced tumor necrosis and substantial prolongation of survival. Moreover, these results were achieved in the absence of apparent toxicities. The present study suggests the applicability of this strategy for the development of effective and safe oncolytic agents to treat multi-focal HCC, and potentially a multitude of other cancers, in the future.
