Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is a potent angiogenic agent and plays a major role in tumor growth and metastases. We have previously reported the locoregional (i.p.) delivery of adenovirus-mediated antiangiogenic soluble FLT-1 (sFLT-1; a naturally encoded potent VEGF antagonist) gene therapy to inhibit VEGF action in a murine ovarian carcinoma model. This study was predicated on the fact that systemic delivery of sFLT-1 might allow an approach for therapy of disseminated tumor. The purpose of this study is to test the effects of i.v. delivered, adenovirus-mediated sFLT-1 on the survival duration in a murine ovarian tumor model and to evaluate the safety of i.v.-delivered versus i.p.-delivered adenovirus-mediated sFLT-1 in non-tumor-bearing mice.
