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

A generally applicable, easy-to-use method of focusing a patient's immune system to eradicate or prevent cancer has been elusive. We are attempting to develop a targeted virus to accomplish these aims. We previously created a recombinant replicating vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) that preferentially infected Her2/neu expressing breast cancer cells and showed therapeutic efficacy in an implanted Balb/c mouse tumor model. The current work shows that this therapy generated therapeutic anti-tumor CD4 T cells against multiple tumor antigens. CD4 T cells transferred directly from cured donor mice could eradicate established tumors in host mice. T cells were transferred directly from donor mice and were not stimulated ex vivo. Both tumors that expressed Her2/neu and those that did not were cured by transferred T cells. Analysis of cytokines secreted by anti-tumor memory CD4 T cells displayed a multifunctional pattern with high levels of interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-17. Anti-tumor memory CD4 T cells traveled to the mesenteric lymph nodes and were activated there. Treatment with targeted recombinant replicating VSV is a potent immune adjuvant that generates therapeutic, multifunctional anti-tumor memory CD4 T cells that recognize multiple tumor antigens. Immunity elicited by viral therapy is independent of host major histocompatibility complex or knowledge of tumor antigens. Virus-induced tumor immunity could have great benefit in the prevention and treatment of tumor metastases.
