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

Currently, individuals with pre-existing neutralizing antibodies (NABs) against adeno-associated virus (AAV) above titer of 5 are excluded from systemic AAV-based clinical trials. In this study we explored the impact of pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs on the efficacy of AAV5-based gene therapy. AMT-060 (AAV5-human FIX) was evaluated in 10 adults with hemophilia B who tested negative for pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs using a GFP-based assay. In this study, using a more sensitive luciferase-based assay, we show that 3 of those 10 patients tested positive for anti-AAV5 NABs. However, no relationship was observed between the presence of pre-treatment anti-AAV5 NABs and the therapeutic efficacy of AMT-060. Further studies in non-human primates (NHPs) showed that AAV5 transduction efficacy was similar following AMT-060 treatment, irrespective of the pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs titers. We show that therapeutic efficacy of AAV5-mediated gene therapy was achieved in humans with pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs titers up to 340. Whereas in NHPs circulating human factor IX (hFIX) protein was achieved, at a level therapeutic in humans, with pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs up to 1030. Based on those results, no patients were excluded from the AMT-061 (AAV5-hFIX-Padua) phase IIb clinical trial (n = 3). All three subjects presented pre-existing anti-AAV5 NABs, yet had therapeutic hFIX activity after AMT-061 administration.
