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

Vaccination therapy using dendritic cells (DC) as antigen presenting cells (APC) has shown significant promise in laboratory and animal studies as a potential treatment for malignant diseases. Pulsing of autologous DCs with tumor-associated antigens (TAA) is a method often used for antigen delivery and choice of suitable antigens plays an important role in designing an effective vaccine. We identified two HLA-A2 binding novel 9-mer peptides of the TAA MUC1, which is overexpressed on various hematological and epithelial malignancies. Cytotoxic T cells generated after pulsing DC with these peptides were able to induce lysis of tumor cells expressing MUC1 in an antigen-specific and HLA-restricted fashion. Within two clinical studies, we demonstrated that vaccination of patients with advanced cancer using DCs pulsed with MUC1 derived peptides is well tolerated without serious side effects and can induce immunological responses. Of 20 patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma, 6 patients showed regression of metastases with 3 objective responses (1 CR, 2 PR). Furthermore, we found that in patients responding to treatment T cell responses for antigens not used for treatment occurred suggesting that antigen spreading in vivo might be a possible mechanism of mediating antitumor effects. These results demonstrate that immunotherapy in patients with advanced malignancies using autologous DCs pulsed with MUC1 derived peptides can induce immunological and clinical responses. However, further clinical studies are needed to identify the most potent treatment regimen that can consistently mediate an antitumor immune response in vivo.
