Gene therapy for cancer.
This review looks at various gene therapy strategies that are currently being investigated either in experimental studies or in clinical trials. These approaches attempt to either enhance the antitumor immune response of the host, express conditional toxins specifically in tumor cells, reverse the transformed phenotype of tumor cells, or protect normal tissues against the toxicities of conventional treatments.
