More about RIGVIR for Melanoma

Rigvir Virotherapy treatment has been used on a wide variety of cancers including melanoma, stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, kidney cancer, uterine cancer, bladder cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, and several types of sarcoma. Rigvir significantly prolongs survival in early-stage melanoma patients without any side effects. Virotherapy is theorized to be an effective cancer treatment that uses oncotropic and oncolytic virus with the ability of a virus to find and destroy malignant cells in the body. Rigvir contains a live nonpathogenic ECHO-7 virus that has not been genetically modified. It finds and selectively infects tumor cells. Then replicates in tumor cells and destroys them. Both of these processes — oncotropism and oncolysis — are selective for tumor cells and normal healthy cells are minimally affected, if at all.

ECHO-7 Virus

The ECHO-7 virus can be found naturally in the intestines of healthy young children. This virus co-exists with other micro-organisms in the intestines without causing any side effects. This means that patients can make use of Rigvir Virotherapy during long periods of time without adverse side effects. In fact, doctors have noted that Rigvir seems to actually strengthen the immune system and help the body naturally prevent the growth of cancerous cells.

Oncotropic Virus

ECHO-7 is one of a number of viruses that are oncotropic, which means that they migrate selectively to cancer cells. The virus enters and then multiplies within these cancer cells through a process called oncolysis, which destroys them. At the same time, the virus makes the cancer cells visible to the body’s immune system. Many tumors develop the ability to mask themselves from the immune system, which is why the body is unable to fight off cancer cells. This problem is overcome through the direct ability of Rigvir to target and kill cancer cells, combined with its indirect ability to revive the body’s immune response to cancer.
