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

Heat shock protein 105 (HSP105) is overexpressed in many cancers, including colorectal cancer (CRC) and esophageal cancer (EC). We carried out a phase I clinical trial of HLA-A24- and HLA-A2-restricted HSP105 peptide vaccines in patients with CRC or EC. In this additional study of the trial, we examined the immunological efficacy of the novel vaccine. Thirty patients with advanced CRC or EC underwent HSP105 peptide vaccination. Immunological responses were evaluated by ex vivo and in vitro γ-interferon enzyme-linked immunospot assays and their correlation with patients' prognosis was analyzed. The HSP105 peptide vaccines induced peptide-specific CTLs in 15 of 30 patients. Among HLA-A24 patients (n = 15), 7 showed induction of CTLs only ex vivo, whereas among HLA-A2 patients (n = 15), 4 showed the induction ex vivo and 6 in vitro. Heat shock protein 105-specific CTL induction correlated with suppression of cancer progression and was revealed as a potential predictive biomarker for progression-free survival (P = .008; hazard ratio = 3.03; 95% confidence interval, 1.34-6.85) and overall survival (P = .025; hazard ratio = 2.72; 95% confidence interval, 1.13-6.52). Production of cytokines by HSP105 peptide-specific CTLs was observed at the injection sites (skin) and tumor tissues, suggesting that HSP105-specific CTLs not only accumulated at vaccination sites but also infiltrated tumors. Furthermore, we established 2 HSP105 peptide-specific CTL clones, which showed HSP105-specific cytokine secretion and cytotoxicity. Our results suggest that the HSP105 peptide vaccine could induce immunological effects in cancer patients and improve their prognosis.
