Erythropoietin-producing hepatocyte B6 variant-derived peptides with the ability to induce glioma-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes in human leukocyte antigen-A2+ glioma patients.
Article in Cancer science, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
We recently cloned a variant form of erythropoietin-producing hepatocyte (Eph)B6, a member of the Eph receptor tyrosine kinase family. In the present study, we examined the expression of the EphB6 variant (EphB6v) in a panel of brain tumor cell lines and glioblastoma tissues and we found that EphB6v was preferentially expressed in malignant brain tumors, such as glioblastomas and anaplastic astrocytomas. The EphB6v has a unique 54 amino acid sequence at the C-terminal that is not found in normal EphB6. Therefore, we attempted to identify antigenic peptides unique to EphB6v for immunotherapy. The two EphB6v-derived peptides exhibited the ability to bind to human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A0201 molecules, and each of them was able to induce cytotoxic T lymphocytes in vitro in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of HLA-A2(+) glioma patients. The cytotoxicity was mediated by peptide-specific CD8(+) T cells in an HLA-A2-restricted manner. The expression of EphB6v was also observed in different types of cancer (e.g. lung, colon, stomach, liver and pancreatic) cells. Taken together, the two peptides derived from EphB6v might be appropriate targets for peptide-based specific immunotherapy for HLA-A2(+) patients with various cancers.
