  • the present invention relates to treatment of human head and neck cancer using attenuated herpesvirus.
  • Head and neck cancer may involve all of the cicada-camilla nerves, easily impair survival functions such as breathing, swallowing, and vocalization, and may involve deformation of the exposed parts of the face and neck There is a feature. Therefore, in the treatment method selection, while organ preservation and function preservation are emphasized, local control is also the biggest issue. Head and neck cancer is difficult to achieve with chemotherapy alone. In addition, dysfunction and deformation have become problems in the treatment of head and neck cancer by surgery, and radiation therapy has problems such as the limitation of irradiation dose and impaired salivation after swallowing, and dysphagia. There are many examples where the effects are limited or the effects are not fully obtained. In addition, clinical trials for the treatment of head and neck cancer using adenovirus mutants have been carried out, but the results are not satisfactory. Therefore, it is desired to develop a new treatment method for treating head and neck cancer.
