NV1066, a replication-competent oncolytic herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) attenuated by a deletion in the gene gamma(1)34.5, preferentially replicates in and kills malignant cells. gamma(1)34.5 encodes ICP34.5, a viral protein essential for productive replication, which has homology with mammalian stress response induced GADD34 (growth arrest and DNA damage-inducible protein). We hypothesized that cisplatin upregulates GADD34 expression, which enhances NV1066 replication and oncolysis.
