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

The majority of peptide-based cancer vaccines under development are for human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A2- or -A24-positive patients. To overcome this limitation, we conducted a phase I clinical study of peptide vaccines designed for cancer patients with six different HLA-A types. Eligible patients were required to have failed prior standard cancer therapies and to be positive for the HLA-A2, -A24 or -A3 (A3, A11, A31 and A33) supertype. Three sets of 8 candidate peptides (24 peptides in total) were provided for vaccination to HLA-A2(+), HLA-A24(+) and HLA-A3(+) patients, respectively. Personalization of the vaccination peptides from the candidate pool was made by considering the patients' HLA types and pre-existing levels of IgGs to the candidate peptides. Seventeen patients were enrolled in this study. The peptide vaccinations were well tolerated in all patients with no vaccine-related severe adverse events. Augmentation of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) or IgG responses specific to the vaccinated peptides was observed in 11 or 10 out of 13 cases tested, respectively. This new type of vaccine is recommended for phase II clinical trial because of its tolerability and the immune responses to the vaccinated peptides.
