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

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) can be a curative therapy for patients suffering from hematological malignancies. The therapeutic efficacy is based on donor-derived CD8(+) T cells that recognize minor histocompatibility antigens (MiHAs) expressed by patient's tumor cells. However, these responses are not always sufficient, and persistence and recurrence of the malignant disease are often observed. Therefore, application of additive therapy targeting hematopoietic-restricted MiHAs is essential. Adoptive transfer of MiHA-specific CD8(+) T cells in combination with dendritic cell (DC) vaccination could be a promising strategy. Though effects of DC vaccination in anti-cancer therapy have been demonstrated, improvement in DC vaccination therapy is needed, as clinical responses are limited. In this study, we investigated the potency of program death ligand (PD-L) 1 and 2 silenced DC vaccines for ex vivo priming and in vivo boosting of MiHA-specific CD8(+) T cell responses. Co-culturing CD8(+) T cells with MiHA-loaded DCs resulted in priming and expansion of functional MiHA-specific CD8(+) T cells from the naive repertoire, which was augmented upon silencing of PD-L1 and PD-L2. Furthermore, DC vaccination supported and expanded adoptively transferred antigen-specific CD8(+) T cells in vivo. Importantly, the use of PD-L silenced DCs improved boosting and further expansion of ex vivo primed MiHA-specific CD8(+) T cells in immunodeficient mice. In conclusion, adoptive transfer of ex vivo primed MiHA-specific CD8(+) T cells in combination with PD-L silenced DC vaccination, targeting MiHAs restricted to the hematopoietic system, is an interesting approach to boost GVT immunity in allo-SCT patients and thereby prevent relapse.
