Generating MHC Class II+/Ii- phenotype after adenoviral delivery of both an expressible gene for MHC Class II inducer and an antisense Ii-RNA construct in tumor cells.
Article in Gene therapy, 2003. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Tumor cells engineered by gene transduction to be MHC Class II+/Ii- are novel APCs capable of presenting endogenous tumor antigen epitopes to activate T helper cells. The MHC Class II+/Ii- tumor cell phenotype is created by transfecting genes for either CIITA or IFN-gamma, and inhibiting induced Ii mRNA by an Ii reverse gene construct (Ii-RGC). Adenoviral vectors are preferred for the delivery of such genes because of high infection efficiency and ubiquity of the adenoviral receptor on many cell types and tumors. Here we show that at 5 MOI (multiplicity of infection), recombinant adenoviruses with CIITA or IFN-gamma genes converted virtually all MC-38 colon adenocarcinoma cells and Renca renal carcinoma cells in culture to MHC Class II+/Ii+ cells. A single recombinant adenovirus with both genes for IFN-gamma and Ii-RGC (rAV/IFN-gamma/Ii-RGC) efficiently induced the MHC Class II+/Ii- phenotype. Injection of tumor nodules with rAV/Ii-RGC and rAV/CIITA/IFN-gamma combined with a suboptimal dose of rAV/IL-2 induced a potent antitumor immune response. The methods are adaptable for producing enhanced genetic vaccines, attenuated virus vaccines (eg, vaccinia), and ex vivo cell-based vaccines (dendritic and tumor cells).
