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

Neuroblastoma (NB), as a metastatic form of solid tumor, has a high fatality rate found in early childhood. The two anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) neoepitopes nonamer and decamer used in cancer immunotherapy against NB cancer can selectively bind to the human leukocyte antigen (HLA-B*15:01) groove with high affinities, whereas the native self-peptide is unable to interact with the HLA-B*15:01. Here, we performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and subsequent molecular mechanics-generalized born surface area (MM-GBSA) binding free energy calculations to explore the selective binding mechanisms of nonamer and decamer to the HLA-B*15:01 against the self-peptide. MD simulations revealed the significant conformational dynamics of the self-peptide in the HLA-B*15:01 groove against the nonamer and decamer. Binding free energy calculations showed that the binding affinities of HLA-B*15:01-neoepitope complexes were followed in the order decamer > nonamer > self-peptide. Detailed analysis of HLA-B*15:01-neoepitope structural complexes showed that compared to the nonamer, the self-peptide tended to move outward to the solvent, whereas the decamer moved deep to the HLA-B*15:01 groove. These different dynamic observations of the ALK neoepitopes can explain the distinct binding affinities of self-peptide, nonamer, and decamer to the HLA-B*15:01. The results may be useful for the design of more selective ALK neoepitopes.
