Journal: Tumoral melanosis mimicking residual melanoma in the setting of talimogene laherparepvec treatment. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 4, 2022 Pathological evaluation demonstrated non-viable or absent tumor tissue with tumorous melanosis in all cases. To accurately assess response to therapy and potentially decrease unnecessary additional T-VEC treatments, serial biopsy of 'stable' lesions should be considered to assess the presence or absence of viable tumor.

Targeting CD73 in GBM sensitizes tumors to oncolytic virus therapy (West/Central Hall) - Sep 28, 2022 - Abstract #SNO2022SNO_694; With the approval of oHSV Imlygic by FDA for metastatic melanoma and more recently, conditional approval of G47Δ, marketed by Daiichi Sankyo for GBM treatment in Japan, oncolytic viral therapy has emerged as a promising biological approach to treat solid tumors...Using mice with CD73 knocked out globally (CD73KO), we show that combination of CD73 inhibition with HSV-P10 imparts significant survival benefit compared to WT mice treated with HSV-P10. Our findings will further the understanding of oHSV therapy and the role of the ATP/adenosine in the tumor microenvironment.

ECT is effective in terms of tumor response and tolerated in patients with skin metastases from MM, albeit with a wide variability of reported results. Therefore, prospective trials in this setting are warranted.

Review, Journal: Local anesthetics and immunotherapy: a novel combination to fight cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Sep 1, 2022 Intratumoral injection of oncolytic agents such as modified herpes simplex virus T-VEC or local administration of non-viral oncolytic therapies (such as radiofrequency, chemoembolization, cryoablation, or radiotherapy) can activate an anticancer immune response and hence trigger abscopal effects reducing secondary lesions...This may be explained by direct cytotoxic activity of local anesthetics and additional immune-related abscopal effects. We also summarize the molecular and cellular mechanisms by which the combination of local anesthetics and immunotherapy improves tumor control by the immune system.

(Pubmed Central) - Jul 23, 2022 In summary, treatment with combination BRAFi + anti-PD1 + OncoVEX is more effective than any single treatment in controlling tumor growth, and groups receiving OncoVEX had more tumoral infiltration of CTLs and less intratumoral Tregs in the TIME. This study provides rational basis to combine targeted agents, oncolytic viral therapy, and checkpoint inhibitors in the treatment of melanoma.
