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 this study, we asked whether anti-CD3-activated T cells (ATCs) from cord blood (CB) could be expanded and targeted to solid tumors or hematologic malignancies for infusions after unrelated CB stem cell transplant and whether cord blood ATCs (CBATCs) could reduce alloresponsiveness. STUDY DESIGN AND

methodsCB mononuclear cells (MNCs) were activated with anti-CD3 (20 ng/mL) and expanded for 14 days in interleukin-2 (100 IU/mL). CBATCs were armed with anti-CD3 × anti-CD20 (CD20Bi) or anti-CD3 × anti-Her2 (Her2Bi) bispecific antibodies (CBaATCs) and tested for specific cytotoxicity, cytokine secretion, and alloresponsiveness.

resultsOur results show the mean expansion of CBATCs to be 37-fold after 14 days of culture from either frozen (n=4) or fresh (n=4) CB units. Cytotoxicity was optimal when CBATCs were armed with 50 ng of CD20Bi/10(6) cells. Cytotoxicity peaked between Day 8 and Day 10 for both bispecific antibodies. At an effector-to-target ratio of 25:1, the mean cytotoxicities of CBATCs armed with Her2Bi or CD20Bi were 40% (n=4) and 30% (n=4), respectively. CBaATCs exhibited peak specific interferon-γ enzyme-linked immunosorbent spots on Day 10. CBATCs and CBaATCs suppressed responsiveness to alloantigens by 20% to 50% when compared with normal allogeneic peripheral blood MNC response.

conclusionWe showed that armed CBATCs mediate specific cytotoxicity, secrete low levels of cytokines and chemokines, and demonstrate attenuated response to alloantigens.
