- Preparation: A recombinant canarypox virus is used to intratumorally deliver the immune costimulatory molecule B7.1 (Triozzi et al., 2005)
- Description: A vaccine comprise of a canarypox viral vector that carries the gene for human B7.1 (CD80 antigen) with potential use as an autologous therapeutic cancer vaccine. Tumor cells harvested from a patient are infected with ALVAC-hB7 1, thereby producing an autologous cell line that exhibits increased expression of HLA class I and class II, CD54 (ICAM), and CD80. Increased expression of these proteins by this autologous cell line may activate an antitumor T-cell response when the modified cells are administered to the patient. (NCI04) (NCIT_C2485).
This vaccine has been used in melanoma patients. NCT00003556
