Bispecific Antibodies Progression in Malignant Melanoma.
Review in Frontiers in pharmacology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
The discovery of oncogenes and immune checkpoints has revolutionized the treatment of melanoma in the past 10 years. However, the current PD-L1 checkpoints lack specificity for tumors and target normal cells expressing PD-L1, thus reducing the efficacy on malignant melanoma and increasing the side effects. In addition, the treatment options for primary or secondary drug-resistant melanoma are limited. Bispecific antibodies bind tumor cells and immune cells by simultaneously targeting two antigens, enhancing the anti-tumor targeting effect and cytotoxicity and reducing drug-resistance in malignant melanoma, thus representing an emerging strategy to improve the clinical efficacy. This review focused on the treatment of malignant melanoma by bispecific antibodies and summarized the effective results of the experiments that have been conducted, also discussing the different aspects of these therapies. The role of the melanoma epitopes, immune cell activation, cell death and cytotoxicity induced by bispecific antibodies were evaluated in the clinical or preclinical stage, as these therapies appear to be the most suitable in the treatment of malignant melanoma.
