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

Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) technology has been highlighted in recent years as a new therapeutic approach for cancer treatment. Although the impressive efficacy of CAR-based T cell adoptive immunotherapy has been observed in hematologic cancers, limited effect has been reported on solid tumors. Approximately 20% of gastric cancer (GC) patients exhibit a high expression of c-Met. We have generated an anti c-Met CAR construct that is composed of a single-chain variable fragment (scFv) of c-Met antibody and signaling domains consisting of CD28 and CD3ζ. To test the CAR construct, we used two cell lines: the Jurkat and KHYG-1 cell lines. These are convenient cell lines, compared to primary T cells, to culture and to test CAR constructs. We transduced CAR constructs into Jurkat cells by electroporation. c-Met CAR Jurkat cells secreted interleukin-2 (IL-2) only when incubated with c-Met positive GC cells. To confirm the lytic function of CAR, the CAR construct was transduced into KHYG-1, a NK/T cell line, using lentiviral particles. c-Met CAR KHYG-1 showed cytotoxic effect on c-Met positive GC cells, while c-Met negative GC cell lines were not eradicated by c-Met CAR KHYG-1. Based on these data, we created c-Met CAR T cells from primary T cells, which showed high IL-2 and IFN-γ secretion when incubated with the c-Met positive cancer cell line. In an in vivo xenograft assay with NSG bearing MKN-45, a c-Met positive GC cell line, c-Met CAR T cells effectively inhibited the tumor growth of MKN-45. Our results show that the c-Met CAR T cell therapy can be effective on GC.
