Abstract

Methods for detecting replication in or colonization of a host by a biological therapeutic, such as an oncolytic virus, cells administered for cell therapy and gene therapy vectors, are provided. In the methods, a product produced by the biological therapeutic is detected in a sample of tissue or body fluid distinct from the administered therapy or locus thereof, thereby permitting assessment of the therapy and/or monitoring its progress.
