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

PD-1/PD-L1 checkpoint blockade has achieved unprecedented success in cancer immunotherapy. Nevertheless, many immune-excluded tumors are resistant to therapy. Combination with oncolytic virotherapy may overcome resistance by inducing acute inflammation, immune cell recruitment, and remodeling of the tumor immune environment. Here, we assessed the combination of oncolytic measles vaccine (MV) vectors and PD-1/PD-L1 blockade. In the MC38cea model of measles virus oncolysis, MV combined with anti-PD-1 and MV vectors encoding anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 antibodies achieved modest survival benefits compared with control MV or vectors encoding the antibody constant regions only. Analyses of tumor samples and tumor-draining lymph nodes revealed slight increases in intratumoral T cell effector cytokines as well as a shift toward an effector memory phenotype in the T cell compartment. Importantly, increased IFN-γ recall responses were observed in tumor rechallenge experiments with mice in complete tumor remission after treatment with MV encoding anti-PD-1 or anti-PD-L1 compared with control MV. These results prompted us to generate MV encoding the clinically approved agents pembrolizumab and nivolumab. Previously, we have generated MV encoding atezolizumab. We demonstrated the functionality of the novel vectors
