Adenoviral Vectors Expressing Lymphotactin and Interleukin 2 or Lymphotactin and Interleukin 12 Synergize to Facilitate Tumor Regression in Murine Breast Cancer Models

We have previously demonstrated that intratumoral injection with Ad vectors expressing IL-2 or IL-12 can induce regression in a murine breast cancer model. These IL-2- or IL-12-induced antitumor responses were mainly mediated by Ag-specific T cells. Lymphotactin is a novel lymphocyte chemokine that can cause local accumulation of CD4+, CD8+, and NK cells. We hypothesized that addition of lymphotactin may enhance the antitumor immune responses …
