Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Described is a parvovirus, in particular a H-IPV, that can be genetically retargeted through modification of its capsid, which is useful in cancer therapy.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An H-1 rat parvovirus (H-1PV) comprising a mutation in the polypeptide sequence of the VP proteins, wherein the mutation is at one of or both positions corresponding to I367 and H373 of H-1PV VP2 protein. 2. The H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 1 , wherein the mutation is an I367S mutation. 3. The H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 1 , wherein the mutation is an H373R mutation. 4. The H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 1 , wherein the parvovirus further comprises a foreign peptide or protein with high-affinity for a receptor expressed in a tumor cell. 5. The H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 4 , wherein the foreign peptide or protein comprises the amino acid sequence RGD. 6. The H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 4 , wherein the foreign peptide or protein is inserted at position A 441 of the VP2 protein (corresponding to A583 of the VP1 protein) of the parvovirus. 7. A pharmaceutical composition containing the H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 1 . 8. A method for treating cancer in a human, comprising the step of administering to a human the H-1 rat parvovirus according to claim 1 . 9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the cancer is a melanoma, a brain tumor, mammary carcinoma or cervical carcinoma. 10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the cancer is a glioblastoma.
