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

backgroundT cell receptor-engineered T cells (TCR-Ts) therapy is a promising cancer treatment strategy. Nowadays, most studies focused on identification of high-avidity T cell receptors (TCRs) directed against neoantigens derived from somatic mutations. However, few neoantigens per patient could induce immune response in epithelial cancer and additionally many tumor-specific antigens could be derived from noncoding region. Autologous tumor cells (ATCs) could be unbiased stimulators in activating and enriching tumor-reactive T cells. However, it's unknown if T cells engineered to express TCRs isolated from tumor-reactive T cells enriched by ATCs have strong antitumor response.

methodsIn this study, multiple TIL fragments obtained from a patient with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) were screened for specific recognition of ATCs. Tumor-reactive TILs were enriched by in vitro repeated stimulation of ATCs and isolated based on CD137 upregulation. Subsequently, tumor-reactive TCR was obtained by single-cell RT-PCR analysis and was introduced into peripheral blood lymphocytes to generate TCR-Ts.

resultsWe found that phenotype and effect function of TIL fragments derived from different tumor sites were spatially heterogeneous. Of four TIL fragments, only TIL-F1 could specifically identify ATCs. Subsequently, we isolated CD8

conclusionThis strategy provides the means to generate tumor-reactive TCR-Ts for ESCC, which is especially important for patients without prior knowledge of specific epitopes and might be applied for other cancers.
