The present invention provides a chimeric viral vector system having a highly efficient in vivo gene delivery to cells after vascular administration and an integrative capacity of heterologous gene sequences for stable genetic modification of cells after transduction. In this chimeric vector, an adenoviral vector is employed to deliver retroviral functions to a cell for local, in situ production of retroviral particles inside the cell by the construction of replication-defective adenoviral vectors which contain either retroviral "packaging" functions (retroviral genes gag, pol, env) and retroviral "vector" functions (retroviral LTR sequences flanking the "therapeutic" gene).
