Abstract: The use of recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) virions for delivery of DNA molecules to muscle cells and tissue in the treatment of anemia is disclosed. The invention allows for the direct, in vivo injection of recombinant AAV virions into muscle tissue, e.g., by intramuscular injection, as well as for the in vitro transduction of muscle cells which can subsequently be introduced into a subject for treatment. The invention provides for sustained, high-level expression of a delivered nucleotide sequence encoding erythropoietin, and for in vivo secretion thereof from transduced muscle cells such that systemic delivery is achieved.

Abstract: The use of recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) virions for the treatment of solid tumors is disclosed. The invention provides for the use of recombinant AAV virions to deliver an AAV vector containing a drug-susceptibility gene and a second gene capable of providing an ancillary effect to solid tumor cells. The second gene can be used to enhance the immunogenicity of the transduced tumor cell. Alternatively, the second gene can be used to provide a tumorstatic effect. The invention also provides for the use of recombinant AAV virions to deliver an interferon gene, or a tumor suppressor gene to provide a therapeutic effect in a transduced tumor cell.
