Characterization of a novel anti-human lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) antibody for cancer immunotherapy.
Article in mAbs. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 64 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Lymphocyte activation gene 3 (LAG-3) is expressed on activated T cells, natural killer cells or B cells, and functions to negatively regulate homeostasis of these cells. Anti-LAG-3 antibodies might be useful for antitumor immunotherapy. In this study, we characterized a novel anti-LAG-3 antibody, LBL-007, which was isolated from a human antibody phage display library. LBL-007 was found to specifically bind to human LAG-3 antigen, but not to human CD4 or mouse LAG-3. LBL-007 bound activated T cells and promoted interleukin-2 secretion. LBL-007 internalization efficacy by endocytosis into different cells was better than that of another anti-LAG-3 antibody, relatlimab analog. Moreover, LBL-007 was able to block LAG-3 binding to MHC class II molecules and liver sinusoidal endothelial cell lectin, and block LAG-3-induced downstream signaling. In mice transplanted with colorectal cancer cells, treatment with either anti-PD-1 antibody or LBL-007 (10 mg/kg per mouse twice a week for three weeks) resulted in a significant delay in tumor growth compared with control IgG treatment, and their combination was even more effective. Serum LBL-007 levels were highly stable in monkeys after a single intravenous injection of LBL-007 at 3, 10, or 30 mg/kg. This study demonstrated that the combination of LBL-007 with an anti-PD-1 antibody is a promising antitumor regimen for immunotherapy of solid tumors in future that deserves further study.
