Head and neck for Viralytics
Tuesday, 09 December, 2008
Sydney biotech Viralytics has been authorised to start a trial of its Cavatak oncolytic virus technology in head and neck cancers.
The company is running Phase I trials of the technology in late stage melanoma, prostate and breast cancers.
The new trial will involve nine patients with recurrent, inoperable tumours of the head and neck.
Cavatak is a coxsackievirus-based formulation which attaches itself to receptors on the cell surface that are highly expressed in some solid tumours.
