Oncolytic measles viruses as a multiplexed immune-modulating platform for cancer therapy. Cancer remains a medical and social burden worldwide despite several technological advances in the past decades. Conventional cancer treatments such as surgery, chemo-, or radiotherapy are restricted to local therapy or by dose-limiting toxicities and may induce drug resistance during treatment. In recent years, the field of immunotherapy has launched a paradigm shift in cancer therapy and for the first time could demonstrate a potential for long-term survival of patients suffering from advanced solid tumors. However, because of varying response rates, only a small minority of patients have hitherto benefitted from these immunotherapies.
