Key Companies Developing Therapies in the Oncolytic Viruses Treatment Landscape
What is Oncolytic Virus Therapy?
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) are a class of anti-cancer agent that aids in the regression of tumors by reproducing preferentially in tumor cells, causing immunogenic cell death, and enhancing host defenses against tumors. It uses both natural and modified viruses to find and kill malignant cells.
Oncolytic viruses are cancer therapies that involve a naturally occurring or reprogrammed virus that can find and kill cancerous cells. They belong to a brand-new family of cancer medicines that promote host antitumor immunity, cause immunogenic cell death, and cause tumor cells to replicate preferentially. Oncolytic viruses are experimental cancer treatments that make advantage of the inherent characteristics of viruses to combat cancer. These non-human viruses disregard healthy cells and thrive only in cancerous ones.
Vectors Used in Oncolytic Virotherapy
Many DNA and RNA viruses have the potential to act as oncolytic agents, with DNA viruses predominating in clinical studies. The most common viruses included adenovirus, HSV-1, reovirus, and poxviruses.
Due to its ability to stimulate the immune system, adenovirus is one of the most often used oncolytic viruses. Nevertheless, HSV is now more frequently used than adenovirus because it has a wider range of viral genetic information-carrying capacity and is simpler to manipulate.
Routes for Delivering Oncolytic Virus Therapies
Given that the viral channel directly influences the outcome of the therapy due to virus availability on-site and the natural barrier of the organism to fight against antigens, the route of administration of oncolytic viruses is naturally linked to the type of tumor to be treated. In relation to the treatment of distant metastases, the distribution can be intraperitoneal, intrathecal, subcutaneous, intratumoral, and intravenous. To target tumor cells, lessen pathogenicity to normal cells, lessen the antiviral immune response (to avoid viral clearance), and increase the antitumor immune response, viruses are chosen or modified.
Potential Oncolytic Viruses in Cancer Therapy Under Clinical Development
A possible patient pool of 1 billion people is being considered for the current 12-type tumor targeting programme. The need of the patients is being met by the evaluation of novel oncolytic virus cancer therapies by more than 15 top biotech and pharmaceutical companies in the seven major markets, including Targovax, Replimune, Genelux Corporation, Candel Therapeutics, DNAtrix, SillaJen, Treovir, Lokon Pharma AB, Istari Oncology, CG Oncology, Amgen, Daiichi Sankyo, and others.
With more than 30 assets in Phase II and above of development, the pipeline for oncolytic viruses for cancer therapy is strong. Oncos-102, RP1 (Vusolimogene Oderparepvec), GL-ONC1, CAN-2409, DNX-2401 (Tasadenoturev), PEXA-VEC (Pexastimogene Devacirepvec; JX-594), G207, LOAd703, Lerapolturev (Formerly Known as PVSRIPO), CG0070, and others are among the promising oncolytic.
Future Perspectives of Oncolytic Viruses in Cancer Therapy
The market for oncolytic cancer medicines is expected to alter as more drugs that target different types of cancer get approved in the coming years.
Additionally, oncolytic viruses have a number of advantages over traditional tumor immunotherapies, including high killing efficiency, precise targeting, less side effects or drug resistance, and low cost. These advantages are fueling the market's expansion for oncolytic virus therapies. Additionally, some oncolytic viruses, including Adeno oncolytic viruses, have the ability to fight tumors in the past. This means that they could be used as a cancer vaccine.
Blockbuster medications like Keytruda/Opdivo and other IOs have the chance to target a sizable patient population of checkpoint-resistant patients (50–60% of their current patient pool becomes refractory).
Furthermore, there is a strong case for institutional endorsement of oncolytic virus cancer therapies based on knowledge and experience currently available with immunotherapy. About 30 different cancer types are currently treated with immunotherapy, which will create a sizable patient base for novel developing medicines in the years to come.
