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 use of allogeneic, pluripotent stem-cell-derived immune cells for cancer immunotherapy has been the subject of recent clinical trials. In Japan, investigator-initiated clinical trials will soon begin for ovarian cancer treatment using human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-homozygous-induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived anti-glypican-3 (GPC3) chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing natural killer/innate lymphoid cells (NK/ILC). Using pluripotent stem cells as the source for allogeneic immune cells facilitates stringent quality control of the final product, in terms of efficacy, safety and producibility. In this paper, we describe our methods for the stable, feeder-free production of CAR-expressing NK/ILC cells from CAR-transduced iPSC with clinically relevant scale and materials. The average number of cells that could be differentiated from 1.8-3.6 × 10
