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

Antibody-cytokine fusion proteins can have the potential to increase the density and activity of subsets of leukocytes within the tumor mass. Here, we describe the design, production, and characterization of four novel antibody-cytokine fusion proteins directed against human carbonic anhydrase IX, a highly validated marker of hypoxia that is overexpressed in clear cell renal cell carcinoma and other malignancies. As immunomodulatory payloads we used TNF, IL2, IFNα2 (corresponding to products that are in clinical use), and IL12 (as this cytokine potently activates T cells and NK cells). Therapy experiments were performed in BALB/c mice, bearing CT26 tumors transfected with human carbonic anhydrase IX, in order to assess the performance of the fusion proteins in an immunocompetent setting. The biopharmaceuticals featuring TNF, IL2, or IL12 as payloads cured all mice in their therapy groups, whereas only a subset of mice was cured by the antibody-based delivery of IFNα2. Although the antibody fusion with TNF mediated a rapid hemorrhagic necrosis of the tumor mass, a slower regression of the neoplastic lesions (which continued after the last injection) was observed with the other fusion proteins, and treated mice acquired protective anticancer immunity. A high proportion of tumor-infiltrating CD8
