Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common primary malignant tumor in the brain, accounting for 51.4% of all primary brain tumors. GBM has a highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) and, as such, responses to immunotherapeutic strategies are poor. Vaccinia virus (VV) is an oncolytic virus that has shown tremendous therapeutic effect in various tumor types. In addition to its directly lytic effect on tumor cells, it has an ability to enhance immune cell infiltration into the TME allowing for improved immune control over the tumor. Here, we used a new generation of VV expressing the therapeutic payload interleukin-21 to treat murine GL261 glioma models. After both intratumoral and intravenous delivery, virus treatment induced remodeling of the TME to promote a robust anti-tumor immune response that resulted in control over tumor growth and long-term survival in both subcutaneous and orthotopic mouse models. Treatment efficacy was significantly improved in combination with systemic α-PD1 therapy, which is ineffective as a standalone treatment but synergizes with oncolytic VV to enhance therapeutic outcomes. Importantly, this study also revealed the upregulation of stem cell memory T cell populations after the virus treatment that exert strong and durable anti-tumor activity. |
