Treatment methods using adenovirus

Abstract

The invention provides methods of reducing or decreasing a size of a tumor or eliminating a tumor or inhibiting, decreasing, or reducing neo-vascularization or angiogenesis in a tumor in a patient by administering an adenovirus comprising a nucleic acid construct comprising a FAS-chimera gene operably linked to an endothelial cell-specific promoter. Also provided is a homogeneous population of an adenovirus comprising a FAS-chimera gene operably linked to an endothelial cell-specific promoter and its uses thereof.
