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

Purpose: Epithelial ovarian carcinoma (EOC) is the most lethal of all human gynecologic malignancies. We previously reported that vaccination of female mice with the extracellular domain of anti-Müllerian hormone receptor II (AMHR2-ED) in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) generates AMHR2-ED specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) that provides prevention and therapy against murine EOCs. Although CFA is the "gold standard" adjuvant in animal studies, it is not approved for human use because it often induces painful granulomas and abscesses. Thus, the objective of this study is to identify an alternative adjuvant to CFA for use in our ovarian cancer vaccine clinical trials. Materials and Methods: Because it has been used successfully without serious adverse effects in numerous human clinical trials, we selected the IgG-inducing squalene-based adjuvant, AddaVax™, for evaluation of its ability to facilitate vaccine-induced prevention and treatment of EOC in mice. To this end, we immunized female C57BL/6 mice with recombinant mouse AMHR2-ED emulsified with either AddaVax or CFA as adjuvant and compared the results. Results: We found that formulation of the AMHR2-ED vaccine with AddaVax adjuvant induced high serum titers of IgG and significant inhibition of EOC growth with significantly enhanced overall survival of mice using both prevention and therapeutic protocols. These results were compared favorably with results obtained using CFA as an adjuvant in the AMHR2-ED vaccine. Conclusion: Our data indicate that the AMHR2-ED vaccine formulated with AddaVax may be used in human clinical trials and thereby serve as a novel and effective way to control human EOC.
