A New Hope.. The first human was injected with a cancer-killing virus

Doctors are pinning their hopes on a new drug that contains a deadly virus by killing deadly cancer cells, and if it passes all tests successfully, patients will have hope for a cure for cancer.

For the first time, American scientists have injected a volunteer with the deadly virus, genetically modified CF33-hNIS (Vaxinia), which is used to selectively destroy cells, without affecting healthy cells. According to kubnews.

This drug, invented by experts from the Cancer Research Center “City of Hope” in Los Angeles, USA, in collaboration with experts from the Australian biotechnology company Imugene, has been tested on animals, and they plan to test it clinically on humans.

It is reported that about 100 volunteers are participating in this study and this drug will be tested on patients with advanced cases of cancer, which have not responded to the standard treatments used, as each patient will be injected with a small dose of the drug intramuscularly or intravenously .

“Our previous studies have shown that oncolytic viruses can stimulate the immune system to fight and destroy cancer,” says Danning Lee, chief oncologist at City of Hope. We believe CF33-hNIS may improve patient outcomes.
