Popis: Malignant soft tissue tumors, particularly highly malignant leiomyosarcomas, are resistant to chemotherapy and associated with a poor prognosis. T-01, a third-generation genetically modified herpes simplex virus type 1, replicates in tumor cells alone and exerts a cell-killing effect. The current study aimed to investigate the antitumor effect of T-01, which is a novel treatment for leiomyosarcoma. In vitro, six human cell lines and one mouse sarcoma cell line were assessed for T-01 cytotoxicity. In vivo, the efficacy of T-01 was examined in subcutaneously transplanted leiomyosarcoma (SK-LMS-1) cells and subcutaneously or intraperitoneally transplanted mouse sarcoma (CCRF S-180II) cells. Cytokines were assessed using ELISpot assay with splenocytes from the allogeneic models for immunological evaluation. T-01 showed cytotoxicity in all seven cell lines (p
