Photothermal immunotherapy of melanoma using TLR-7 agonist laden tobacco mosaic virus with polydopamine coat.
Article in Nanomedicine : nanotechnology, biology, and medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 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
Photothermal therapy (PTT) is a promising cancer treatment that debulks tumors locally while priming immune responses. However, PTT as a standalone treatment approach often has limited systemic efficacy, motivating the development of synergistic combination approaches. Toward this goal, herein, the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was loaded with a small molecule immunomodulator, toll-like receptor 7 agonist (1V209), and its surface was coated with photothermal biopolymer polydopamine (PDA). The resulting 1V209-laden and PDA-coated TMV was used to treat B16F10 dermal melanoma in C57BL/6 mice. 1V209-TMV-PDA was intratumorally injected and irradiated using an 808-nm near infrared laser. 60 % of the mice receiving PTT with intratumoral 1V209-TMV-PDA + laser remained alive at the end point - in contrast to only 20 % survivors were observed in the control group. Immunological analysis indicates systemic anti-tumor immunity being induced by the combination therapy with a greater number of tumor-specific T cells (as determined by a splenocyte assay). This study highlights the potential of TMV versatility as a multifunctional nano-platform for combined PTT-immunotherapy.
