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

The field of cell and gene therapy (GT) is expanding rapidly and there is undoubtedly a wave of enthusiasm and anticipation for what these treatments could achieve next. Here we assessed the worldwide landscape of GT assets currently in early clinical development (clinical trial phase 1/2 or about to enter clinical trial). We included all gene therapies, i.e., strategies that modify an individual's protein make-up by introducing exogenous nucleic acid or nucleic acid modifiers, regardless of delivery. Unmodified cell therapies, oncology therapies (reviewed elsewhere), and vaccine programs (distinct therapeutic strategy) were not included. Using a December 31, 2018 cutoff date, we identified 336 gene therapies being developed for 138 different indications covering 165 genetic targets. In all, we found that the early clinical GT landscape comprises a very disparate group of drug candidates in terms of indications, organizations, and delivery methods. We also highlight interesting trends, revealing the evolution of the field toward in vivo therapies and adeno-associated virus vector-based delivery systems. It will be interesting to witness what proportion of this current list effectively translates into new medicines.
