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

backgroundIn order to develop improved vaccines for patients with recurrent prostate cancer (PCa), we tested the feasibility of using type-1 polarized dendritic cells (αDC1s) to cross-present antigens from allogeneic PCa cells and to induce functional CD8(+) T cell responses against PCa cells and against defined MHC class I-restricted PCa-relevant epitopes.

methodsMonocyte-derived DCs from PCa patients were matured using the "standard" cytokine cocktail (IL-1β/TNFα/IL-6/PGE₂) or using the αDC1-polarizing cocktail (IL-1β/TNFα/IFNα/IFNγ/poly-I:C), loaded with UV-irradiated LNCaP cells, and used to sensitize autologous CD8(+) T cells.

resultsαDC1s from PCa patients secreted 10-30 times higher levels of IL-12p70 than sDCs. Importantly this elevated capacity for IL-12p70 secretion was not inhibited by loading with apoptotic tumor cells. Compared to standard DCs, αDC1s induced higher numbers of CD8(+) T cells capable of recognizing both the original PCa cells as well as another PCa cell line, DU145, in MHC class I-restricted fashion. Furthermore, αDC1s induced higher numbers of CD8(+) T cells recognizing defined PCa-specific class I-restricted peptide epitopes of prostate-specific antigen and prostatic acid phosphatase: PAP(135-143) (average 49-fold higher), PAP(112-120) (average 24-fold), PSA(141-150) (average 5.5-fold), and PSA(146-154) (average 11-fold).

conclusionType-1 polarization of GM-CSF/IL-4-generated DCs enhances their ability to present allogeneic tumor cells and to induce CD8(+) T cells recognizing different PCa cells and multiple defined PCa-specific epitopes. These observations help to develop improved immunotherapies of PCa for patients with different HLA types and lacking autologous tumor material.
