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)-mediated targeting of T lineage antigens for the therapy of blood malignancies is frequently complicated by self-targeting of CAR T cells or their excessive differentiation driven by constant CAR signaling. Expression of CARs targeting CD7, a pan-T cell antigen highly expressed in T cell malignancies and some myeloid leukemias, produces robust fratricide and often requires additional mitigation strategies, such as CD7 gene editing. In this study, we show fratricide of CD7 CAR T cells can be fully prevented using ibrutinib and dasatinib, the pharmacologic inhibitors of key CAR/CD3ζ signaling kinases. Supplementation with ibrutinib and dasatinib rescued the ex vivo expansion of unedited CD7 CAR T cells and allowed regaining full CAR-mediated cytotoxicity in vitro and in vivo on withdrawal of the inhibitors. The unedited CD7 CAR T cells persisted long term and mediated sustained anti-leukemic activity in two mouse xenograft models of human T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) by self-selecting for CD7
