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

There are several broadly neutralizing monoclonal antibodies that neutralize influenza viruses with different mechanisms from traditional polyclonal antibodies induced by vaccination. CT149, which is one of the broadly neutralizing antibodies, was also previously reported to neutralize group 2 and some of group 1 influenza viruses (13 out of 13 tested group 2 viruses and 5 out of 11 group 1 viruses). In this study, we developed another antibody with the aim of compensating partial coverage of CT149 against group 1 influenza viruses. CT120 was screened among different antibody candidates and mixed with CT149. Importantly, although the binding sites of CT120 and CT149 are close to each other, the two antibodies do not interfere. The mixture of CT120 and CT149, which we named as CT-P27, showed broad efficacy by neutralizing 37 viruses from 11 different subtypes, of both group 1 and 2 influenza A viruses. Moreover, CT-P27 showed in vivo therapeutic efficacy, long prophylactic potency, and synergistic effect with oseltamivir in influenza virus-challenged mouse models. Our findings provide a novel therapeutic opportunity for more efficient treatment of influenza.
