Zusammenfassung: | The disclosure relates to pharmaceutical compositions and methods of using pharmaceutical compositions comprising effective dosages of an adenoviral-based biological delivery and expression system for use in the treatment or prevention of osteoarthritis in human or mammalian joints by long-term inducible gene expression of human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) in synovial cells, comprising a helper-dependent adenoviral vector containing a nucleic acid sequence encoding for human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra), left and right inverted terminal repeats (L ITR and R ITR), the adenoviral packaging signal and non-viral, non-coding stuffer nucleic acid sequences, wherein the expression of the human or mammalian interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) gene within synovial cells is regulated by an inflammation-sensitive promoter. |
