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

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) immunotherapy has recently shown promise in clinical trials for B-cell malignancies; however, designing CARs for T-cell based diseases remain a challenge since most target antigens are shared between normal and malignant cells, leading to CAR-T cell fratricide. CD7 is highly expressed in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), but it is not expressed in one small group of normal T lymphocytes. Here, we constructed monovalent CD7-CAR-NK-92MI and bivalent dCD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells using the CD7 nanobody VHH6 sequences from our laboratory. Both CD7-CAR-NK-92MI and dCD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells consistently showed specific and potent anti-tumor activity against T-cell leukemia cell lines and primary tumor cells. We observed robust cytotoxicity of the bivalent mdCD7-CAR-NK-92MI monoclonal cells against primary T-ALL samples. In agreement with the enhanced cytotoxicity of mdCD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells, significant elevations in the secretion of Granzyme B and interferon γ (IFN-γ) were also found in mdCD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells in response to CD7-positive primary T-ALL cells compared with NK-92MI-mock cells. Furthermore, we also demonstrated that mdCD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells significantly inhibited disease progression in xenograft mouse models of T-ALL primary tumor cells. Our data suggest that CD7-CAR-NK-92MI cells can be used as a new method or a complementary therapy for treating T-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia.
