Abstract
Purpose: The human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) promoter is used to restrict adenoviral expression of suicide or proapoptotic genes in telomerase-positive cancer cells. Etoposide can enhance intratumoral transgene expression in mice immunized with adenoviral vectors. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether greater therapeutic benefit can be achieved by combination treatment of low-dose etoposide and replication-incompetent adenoviral vectors encoding cytosine deaminase (CD) driven by the hTERT promoter for murine bladder carcinoma.
