Title:
HOST REGULATION FACTOR FOR ENHANCING PROLIFERATION AND PROPAGATION OF VACCINIA VIRUS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/014296
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The objective of the present invention is to provide a use for a UCA1 gene, which is a host regulation factor that enhances proliferation and propagation of the vaccinia virus, so that cancer virotherapy using the vaccinia virus can be effectively carried out. The present invention is: a method for making a predictive evaluation of the efficacy of a cancer treatment using the vaccinia virus, by measuring the expression of the UCA1 gene in cancer cells of a cancer patient, and if the UCA1 gene is expressed, predicting that a cancer treatment using the vaccinia virus will be effective in the patient; and a vaccinia virus introduced in a manner enabling UCA1 gene expression.
