"[Our results are summarized as follows: (i) a recombinant HSV (M012) was constructed in which both copies of the gamma(1)34.5 gene were replaced with the bacterial CD gene, under the control of the cellular promoter Egr-1; (ii) M012-infected cells in vitro efficiently convert 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) to 5-fluorouracil, thereby enhancing cytotoxicity of neighboring, uninfected cells; (iii) both direct and bystander cytotoxicity of murine neuroblastoma and human glioma cell lines after infection with M012 were demonstrated; (iv) direct intracerebral inoculation of A/J mice demonstrated lack of neurotoxicity at doses similar to G207, a gamma(1)34.5-deleted HSV with demonstrated safety in human patient trials and (v) intratumoral injection of M012 into Neuro-2a flank tumors in combination with 5-FC administration significantly reduced tumor growth versus tumors treated with R3659 combined with 5-FC, or treated with M012 alone.].
