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

Recently, many autologous tumor antigens have been examined for their potential use in cancer immunotherapy. However, the success of cancer vaccines in clinical trials has been limited, partly because of the limitations of using single, short peptides in most attempts. With this in mind, we aimed to develop multivalent synthetic long peptide (SLP) vaccines containing multiple cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) epitopes. However, to confirm whether a multivalent vaccine can induce an individual epitope-specific CTL, the only viable screening strategies currently available are interferon-gamma (IFN-γ enzyme-linked immunospot (ELISPOT) assays using human peripheral blood mononuclear cells, or expensive human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-expressing mice. In this report, we evaluated the use of our developed murine-20S immunoproteasome (i20S) digestion assay, and found that it could predict the results of IFN-γ ELISPOT assays. Importantly, the murine-i20S digestion assay not only predicted CTL induction, but also antitumor activity in an HLA-expressing mouse model. We conclude that the murine-i20S digestion assay is an extremely useful tool for the development of "all functional" multivalent SLP vaccines.
