In vitro assays for effector T cell functions and activity of immunomodulatory antibodies.
Article in Methods in enzymology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
The recent clinical success of cancer immunotherapy with checkpoint blockade has led to renewed interest into the development of immune modulatory agents with the capacity to activate anti-tumor T cell responses. Standardization of optimized in vitro assays for efficient assessment of immune function of such new drugs is thus needed to facilitate clinical development of the optimal drug candidates. Here, we describe an optimized version of T cell suppression assay designed to test the effect of immunomodulatory agents on T cell function and activation. We apply this assay to investigate the agonist activity of the T cell co-stimulatory molecule glucocorticoid-induced TNFR-related protein (GITR). We detail a protocol for concurrent assessment of multiple levels of T cell functional modulation upon GITR engagement, including T cell priming, activation and effector function, in a single assay. As human GITR agonist antibodies are currently under development, availability of standardized cell-based functional assays of GITR agonism is instrumental to translate anti-GITR therapy into the clinical setting.
