Orthotopic mouse model of human bladder cancer: anti-tumor activity after intravesical rAd-IFN/Syn3
“Intravesical administration of rAd-IFN with the excipient Syn3 was evaluated in an orthotopic mouse model of human bladder cancer . Anti-tumor activity was observed following intravesical administration of rAd-IFN/Syn3 at 1x1010 viral particles/mouse (rAd-IFN concentration of 1x1011 vp/ml in 1 mg/mL Syn3).”

Why that model
Immunodeficient mice required to host human bladder cancer cell xenografts
“The mice were immunocompromised which does not represent the clinical situation reliably, however this is inherent to the use of human bladder cancers cells for the xenograft.”
EMA: in vivo data provide proof-of-concept against bladder cancer xenografts and support dose and Syn3 concentration
“The in vivo pharmacodynamic data provide proof-of-concept for treatment of bladder cancer xenografts by intravesical rAd-IFN/Syn3NODA. Furthermore, the in vivo studies support the choice for the dose of 1x1011 as well as the choice for use of 1 mg/mL Syn3NODA.”
