Immune-activating recombinant oncolytic virus and use thereof
By inserting HBsAg, IL-15, and IL-15Ra sequences into recombinant oncolytic viruses, the immune response of HBV-positive tumor cells is activated, solving the problems of drug resistance and high recurrence rate in HBV-positive liver cancer patients, and achieving a treatment effect with high cure rate and low recurrence rate.

AI Technical Summary
HBV-positive liver cancer patients have drug resistance issues during immunotherapy, and the recurrence rate of liver cancer is high. Existing oncolytic virus therapy is difficult to effectively activate the host's anti-tumor immune response and prevent tumor recurrence.
Nucleotide sequences encoding HBsAg, IL-15, and IL-15Ra are inserted into the genome of an immune-activated recombinant oncolytic virus. By infecting HBV-positive tumor cells, this activates the anti-tumor immune response, expresses HBV surface antigens and cytokines, enhances the function of T cells and NK cells, and prevents tumor recurrence.
It improved the tumor cure rate, reduced the tumor recurrence rate, significantly inhibited tumor growth, prolonged the survival of tumor-bearing mice, and prevented tumor recurrence by activating specific T cell responses and enhancing immune memory.
