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

purposeEfforts are required to improve the potency and durability of CD38- and BCMA-based immunotherapies in human multiple myeloma. We here delineated the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying novel immunomodulatory effects triggered by BCMA pyrrolobenzodiazepine (PBD) antibody drug conjugate (ADC) MEDI2228 which can augment efficacy of these immunotherapies. EXPERIMENTAL

designMEDI2228-induced transcriptional and protein changes were investigated to define significantly impacted genes and signaling cascades in multiple myeloma cells. Mechanisms whereby MEDI2228 combination therapies can enhance cytotoxicity or overcome drug resistance in multiple myeloma cell lines and patient multiple myeloma cells were defined using in vitro models of tumor in the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment, as well as in human natural killer (NK)-reconstituted NOD/SCID gamma (NSG) mice bearing MM1S tumors.

resultsMEDI2228 enriched IFN I signaling and enhanced expression of IFN-stimulated genes in multiple myeloma cell lines following the induction of DNA damage-ATM/ATR-CHK1/2 pathways. It activated cGAS-STING-TBK1-IRF3 and STAT1-IRF1-signaling cascades and increased CD38 expression in multiple myeloma cells but did not increase CD38 expression in BCMA-negative NK effector cells. It overcame CD38 downregulation on multiple myeloma cells triggered by IL6 and patient BM stromal cell-culture supernatant via activation of STAT1-IRF1, even in immunomodulatory drug (IMiD)- and bortezomib-resistant multiple myeloma cells. In vitro and in vivo upregulation of NKG2D ligands and CD38 in MEDI2228-treated multiple myeloma cells was further associated with synergistic daratumumab (Dara) CD38 MoAb-triggered NK-mediated cytotoxicity of both cell lines and autologous drug-resistant patient multiple myeloma cells.

conclusionsThese results provide the basis for clinical evaluation of combination MEDI2228 with Dara to further improve patient outcome in multiple myeloma.
