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

Immunotherapy is an important therapeutic modality for urological cancers and several immunological agents for their treatment, such as sipuleucel-T and immune checkpoint inhibitors, have been approved by the FDA. Personalized peptide vaccines (PPVs) are an immunotherapy that uses multiple cancer peptides that are selected to complement pre-existing host immunity. Vaccination with an appropriate, individualized selection of peptides, chosen from a list of candidates, induces stronger and more rapid antitumour immunity in comparison with inoculation of conventional peptide vaccines. Phase I and phase II trials have shown that PPVs are safe and effective in urological cancers. Randomized trials in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer showed that PPVs can significantly improve progression-free survival and overall survival. However, further studies are needed to evaluate the utility of PPVs in other urological cancers, to identify those patients who will derive the greatest benefit from this approach and to optimize the protocols for combination therapies involving PPVs.
