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

purposeNHS-IL12 is an immunocytokine targeting necrotic tumour areas. IL12 shows anti-tumour activity. As local irradiation might induce additional necrosis in solid tumours, we aimed to evaluate the increase in intratumoural accumulation of NHS-IL12 after irradiation and correlate the findings with diffusion-weighted MRI studies in two xenograft models.

methodsHuman rhabdomyosarcoma (A204) and prostate cancer (PC3) cells were studied in vitro and as subcutaneous xenografts. Radiation sensitivity of the cell lines was assessed in vitro by colony formation assays. In vivo tumour necrosis was assessed based on apparent diffusion coefficients (ADC). Biodistribution of NHS-IL12 was evaluated with and without tumour irradiation using in vivo small-animal PET and ex vivo biodistribution.

resultsA204 and PC3 differed in their intrinsic radiation sensitivity. Accordingly, radiation-induced tumour necrosis was found only in A204 xenografts. In comparison with control, ADC was significantly increased after irradiation of A204 tumours with 1 × 8.0 Gy and 5 × 2.0 Gy, whereas no change in ADC was observed in PC3 xenografts in all irradiation regimes. ADC correlated with histology. An enhanced uptake of radiolabelled NHS-IL12 in A204 tumours was detected by PET and ex vivo biodistribution after tumour irradiation. In PC3 tumours, no increase in NHS-IL12 uptake was observed.

conclusionsIn dependence of the tumour model, tumour irradiation enhanced tumour necrosis measured in MRI and histology. In vivo PET and ex vivo biodistribution showed enhanced binding of NHS-IL12 in rhabdomyosarcoma xenografts. Thus, enhanced binding of necrosis-targeting immunocytokines might be a novel mechanism of additive effects in combination with irradiation.
