“…Preclinical tests have been carried out to characterize the gene delivery properties of vectors based on foami virus [95][96][97], lentiviruses (such as HIV-1 [98][99][100][101][102][103][104] and feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) [105][106][107]), human cytomegalovirus (CMV) [108], Epstein-Barr virus [109], negative-strand RNA viruses (influenza virus) [110], alphaviruses [111], herpesvirus saimiri [112], hybrid adenoviral/retroviral vector systems [113,114], and hybrid alphavirus/retroviral vector [115]. Other preclinical studies are also assessing the level of vector design improvement that has been reported for a variety of gene transfer models.…”
