Nice article

These quotes are confirming:

“They have 20 agents that they can excrete to stimulate the buildup of new blood vessels. For this reason, trying to block one or two of these factors will not be potent enough. We took another approach — when the tumor tries to build these new vessels, we activate a deadly gene, targeting only the angiogenic blood vessels.”

“We are actually also exposing the tumor to the immune system — because the immune system recognizes the tumor with the virus and sets out to fight both the virus and the tumor. With our drug, we are killing the blood vessels, but we are also bringing the immune system to the tumor itself.”

Thanks for the article. Really confirms all the things we've been discussing.
