These exciting new therapeutic agents have great potential for the treatment of disease, as platforms for gene therapy and gene editing, as well as for oncology approaches, making them class leading agents in the gene-advanced therapies arena.
The fully updated and expanded third edition covers the basic biology of adenoviruses and highlights the potential use of adenoviral vectors for the treatment of disease, including their construction, propagation, and purification, cutting-edge vectorology, and the use of adenoviral vectors in preclinical animal models. The book also considers the regulatory issues surrounding human clinical gene therapy trials. New chapters include adenoviral vaccines for veterinary applications, adenoviruses for gene editing, nonhuman primate adenoviruses, COVID-19 vaccines, vaccine applications, and oncolytic adenoviruses for antitumor immunization. This broad scope of information provides a solid overview of the field, allowing the reader to gain a complete understanding of the development and use of adenoviral vectors.
