Abstract

Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare cancer type mainly caused by asbestos exposure.MPM has limited treatment options and a poor outcome. New therapeutic approaches are urgentlyneeded. Promising anticancer therapeutics are Oncolytic viruses (OVs) that selectively replicate in andkill cancer cells, leading to the tumor lysis.
