Vaccine Detail

Inactivated Vaccinia Virus
Vaccine Information
  • Vaccine Name: Inactivated Vaccinia Virus
  • Target Pathogen: Cancer
  • Target Disease: Cancer
  • Vaccine Ontology ID: VO_0007405
  • Type: DNA vaccine
  • Status: Clinical trial
  • Host Species for Licensed Use: Human
  • Host Species as Laboratory Animal Model: Human
  • Description: A poxvirus made non-infectious by ultraviolet light or other inactivation methods in order to reduce its pathogenicity. In cancer gene therapy, inactivated vaccinia virus may be used as a vector to express a protein that kills tumor cells or elicits specific anti-tumor immunity. In a cancer vaccine application, tumor cells taken from the host may be adsorbed with inactivated vaccinia virus and returned to the host, where the modified tumor cells may stimulate an anti-tumor immune response. (NCI04) (NCIT_C29918).
