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-T (CAR-T) cell immunotherapy has produced dramatic responses in hematologic malignancies. One of the challenges in the field is the lack of a simple assay for the detection of CARs on the surface of immune effector cells. In this study, we describe a novel luciferase-based assay, termed Topanga Assay, for the detection of CAR expression. The assay utilizes a recombinant fusion protein, called Topanga reagent, generated by joining the extra-cellular domain of a CAR-target in frame with one of the marine luciferases or their engineered derivatives. The assay involves incubation of CAR expressing cells with the Topanga reagent, a few washes and measurement of luminescence. The assay can detect CARs comprising either immunoglobulin- or non-immunoglobulin-based antigen binding domains. We further demonstrate that addition of epitope tags to the Topanga reagent not only allows its convenient one step purification but also extends its use for detection of CAR cells using flow cytometry. However, crude supernatant containing the secreted Topanga reagent can be directly used in both luminescence and flow-cytometry based assays without prior protein purification. Our results demonstrate that the Topanga assay is a highly sensitive, specific, convenient, economical and versatile assay for the detection of CARs.
