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

backgroundPhosphorylcholine (PC) is an important pro-inflammatory damage-associated molecular pattern. Previous data have shown that natural IgM anti-PC protects against cardiovascular disease. We aimed to develop a monoclonal PC IgG antibody with anti-inflammatory and anti-atherosclerotic properties.

methodsUsing various techniques PC antibodies were validated and optimized. In vivo testing was performed in a femoral artery cuff model in ApoE3*Leiden mice. Safety studies are performed in rats and cynomolgus monkeys.

resultsA chimeric anti-PC (PC-mAb(T15), consisting of a human IgG1 Fc and a mouse T15/E06 Fab) was produced, and this was shown to bind specifically to epitopes in human atherosclerotic tissues. The cuff model results in rapid induction of inflammatory genes and altered expression of genes associated with ER stress and choline metabolism in the lesions. Treatment with PC-mAb(T15) reduced accelerated atherosclerosis via reduced expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress markers and CCL2 production. Recombinant anti-PC Fab fragments were identified by phage display and cloned into fully human IgG1 backbones creating a human monoclonal IgG1 anti-PC (PC-mAbs) that specifically bind PC, apoptotic cells and oxLDL. Based on preventing macrophage oxLDL uptake and CCL2 production, four monoclonal PC-mAbs were selected, which to various extent reduced vascular inflammation and lesion development. Additional optimization and validation of two PC-mAb antibodies resulted in selection of PC-mAb X19-A05, which inhibited accelerated atherosclerosis. Clinical grade production of this antibody (ATH3G10) significantly attenuated vascular inflammation and accelerated atherosclerosis and was tolerated in safety studies in rats and cynomolgus monkeys.

conclusionsChimeric anti-PCs can prevent accelerated atherosclerosis by inhibiting vascular inflammation directly and through reduced macrophage oxLDL uptake resulting in decreased lesions. PC-mAb represents a novel strategy for cardiovascular disease prevention.
