Abstract: The invention provides methods of reducing or decreasing a size of a tumor or eliminating a tumor or inhibiting, decreasing, or reducing neo-vascularization or angiogenesis in a tumor in a patient by administering an adenovirus comprising a nucleic acid construct comprising a FAS-chimera gene operably linked to an endothelial cell-specific promoter. Also provided is a homogeneous population of an adenovirus comprising a FAS-chimera gene operably linked to an endothelial cell-specific promoter and its uses thereof.

Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of treating a tumor in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject the combination of an effective dose of a vector comprising a Fas-chimera gene operably linked to an endothelial cell-specific promoter and an effective dose of an immune checkpoint inhibitor. In some aspects of the disclosure, the immune checkpoint inhibitor is a PD-1 antagonist or PD-L1 antagonist.
