Biotherapeutic Approaches to Cancer Treatment Ø Based on utilizing the patient’s immune system Ø Monoclonal antibodies Ø Biotherapeutics (cytokines, receptor agonists) Ø Cancer Vaccines (tumor cell vaccine, DNA vaccine) Ø Oncolytic viruses An innovative therapeutic strategy to harness the replicative properties of viruses to specifically target and destroy tumor cells, while leaving normal tissues largely unaffected
Oncolytic Viruses in Cancer Treatment • Cancer cells have a dampened innate immune response • They are more susceptible to pathogens • Use viruses to infect and kill cancer cells
Oncolytic Viruses in Cancer Treatment • Cancer cells have a dampened innate immune response • They are more susceptible to pathogens • Use viruses to infect and kill cancer cells • FDA approved TVEC virus to treat malignant melanoma
VSV as an onolytic virus • Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) is a negative sense RNA virus • Non-pathogenic in humans • Has been used to treat different types of cancer • In phase II clinical trials • Problem: A lot of cancer cells have a residual innate anti-viral response making them resistant to infection
Overcoming the barrier Tumor sensitivity to VSV can be increased by combining the virus with small molecules • Extracted from cruciferous vegetables: well tolerated, cheap. • In Phase II clinical trials as a chemotherapeutic drug
SFN activates autophagy and Nrf 2 • Nrf 2: – Anti-oxidant transcription factor – Mediates reactive oxygen species scavenging during cell stress Autophagy: • Clears protein aggregates • Removes damaged organelles • Helps decrease cell stress Dampen the innate antiviral response to enhance VSV-mediated oncolysis in resistant cancer cells

Conclusions • Stimulation of Nrf 2 using SFN increases VSV-induced oncolysis in various cancer cells • Nrf 2 transcription factor supports VSV replication • SFN potentiation of VSV-induced oncolysis relies on Nrf 2 -dependent autophagy • Activation of Nrf 2 suppresses VSV-induced immune responses (through induction of autophagy ? ? ) • SFN bolstered VSV oncolytic activity in different syngeneic and xenograft mouse models
