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

In this study, we have explored the use of Fab-toxin proteins (immunotoxin) to target antigen-specific MHC-peptide complexes of in vitro and in vivo cancer cells. A human phage display library was used to screen for T-cell receptor (TCR)-like antibodies that are highly specific for the peptide melanoma-associated antigen MART-1(26-35) presented by HLA-A201. We also used previously selected TCR-like antibodies specific for the peptide melanoma-associated antigen gp100(280-288) presented by HLA-A201. The recombinant immunotoxin constructs were generated by fusing the targeting Fab fragment to a truncated form of Pseudomonas exotoxin, PE38KDEL. These immunotoxins bound with high affinity to the EBV-transformed JY cell line pulsed with the aforementioned peptides and internalized within 30 min. A significant inhibition of protein synthesis, which resulted in cell death, was detected at 24 h. MART-1-specific and gp100-specific immunotoxins bound and killed HLA-A201 melanoma MART-1(+) and gp100(+) cell lines that were presented at natural levels but do not bind to HLA-A201(-) or to HLA-A201(+) MART-1(-) and gp100(-) cell lines. In severe combined immunodeficient mice, MART-1 and gp100 immunotoxins significantly and discriminately inhibited human melanoma growth. These results show that MHC class I/peptide complexes can serve as a specific target for passive immunotherapy of cancer.
