Therapeutic Effect on Bladder Cancer with a Conditionally Replicating Oncolytic Virus Derived from Type II Herpes Simplex Virus.
Article in Bladder cancer (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeDespite recent improvements, resistance to traditional immunotherapy or chemotherapy is still common in patients with bladder cancer. We constructed an oncolytic virus from herpes simplex virus type II (HSV-2), which selectively targets tumor cells with an activated Ras signaling pathway. We evaluated the antitumor effect of this oncolytic HSV-2 (FusOn-H2) against bladder cancer, and compared with that of a first generation oncolytic virus derived from HSV-1 (Baco-1). MATERIALS AND
methodsWe established bladder tumor at the orthotopic site in C3H/He mice using the MBT-2 cells. Baco-1 or FusOn-H2 was instilled into the bladder through the urethra respectively. Tumor volume and weight were recorded by the end of the experiment. Animal spleens were also collected to determine if any anti-tumor immunity was elicited during virotherapy in this syngeneic bladder cancer model.
resultsTwo instillations of the oncolytic HSVs into bladder of tumor-bearing mice almost completely eradicated the tumor in majority of tumor bearing mice. The results of tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity assay showed that tumor destruction by oncolytic viruses in vivo, especially by the FusOn-H2, induced potent anti-tumor immune responses.
conclusionOncolytic virus derived from HSV-2 has potent anti-tumor activity against bladder cancer. Oncolytic effect of this virus in vivo induces tumor specific cellular immunity that further enhances the overall anti-tumor activity. Translating this novel virotherapy into the clinic could present an alternative intravesical therapy strategy for patients with bladder cancer.
