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

Engineering CD8⁺ T cells to deliver interleukin 12 (IL-12) to the tumor site can lead to striking improvements in the ability of adoptively transferred T cells to induce the regression of established murine cancers. We have recently shown that IL-12 triggers an acute inflammatory environment that reverses dysfunctional antigen presentation by myeloid-derived cells within tumors and leads to an increase in the infiltration of adoptively transferred antigen-specific CD8⁺ T cells. Here, we find that local delivery of IL-12 increased the expression of Fas within tumor-infiltrating macrophages, dendritic cells, and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC), and that these changes were abrogated in mice deficient in IL-12-receptor signaling. Importantly, upregulation of Fas in host mice played a critical role in the proliferation and antitumor activity of adoptively transferred IL-12-modified CD8⁺ T cells. We also observed higher percentages of myeloid-derived cell populations within tumors in Fas-deficient mice, indicating that tumor stromal destruction was dependent on the Fas death receptor. Taken together, these results describe the likely requirement for costimulatory reverse signaling through Fasl on T cells that successfully infiltrate tumors, a mechanism triggered by the induction of Fas expression on myeloid-derived cells by IL-12 and the subsequent collapse of the tumor stroma.
