1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

We previously showed that genetic immunization of C57BL/6 mice with recombinant adenovirus encoding human TRP2 (Ad-hTRP2) was able to circumvent tolerance and induce cellular and humoral immune responses to murine TRP2 associated with protection against metastatic growth of B16 melanoma. In the present study we compared delivery of Ad-hTRP2 with cultured dendritic cells (DC) and direct injections of Ad-hTRP2. We show that application of Ad-hTRP2 with cultured DC enhanced protective immunity to B16 melanoma cells. Most importantly, delivery of recombinant adenovirus with DC alters the character of the immune response resulting in preferential stimulation of strong cellular immunity in the absence of significant humoral immunity to the encoded antigen. Adoptive transfer of lymphocytes from mice immunized with Ad-hTRP2-transduced DC confirmed that cellular components of the immune response were responsible for rejection of B16 melanoma. The protective efficacy of Ad-hTRP2-transduced DC clearly depended on the presence of CD4(+) T helper cells. Furthermore, AD-hTRP2-transduced DC, but not direct injection of Ad-hTRP2, were effective in the presence of neutralizing anti-adenoviral antibodies. These preclinical studies demonstrate the superiority of melanoma vaccines consisting of cultured DC transduced with recombinant adenoviruses encoding melanoma antigens.
