Optimizing Antibody-Antigen Binding Affinities with the ADAPT Platform.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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 ADAPT (Assisted Design of Antibody and Protein Therapeutics) platform guides the selection of mutants that improve/modulate the affinity of antibodies and other biologics. Predicted affinities are based on a consensus z-score from three scoring functions. Computational predictions are interleaved with experimental validation, significantly enhancing the robustness of the design and selection of mutants. A key step is an initial exhaustive virtual single-mutant scan that identifies hot spots and the mutations predicted to improve affinity. A small number of proposed single mutants are then produced and assayed. Only the validated single mutants (i.e., having improved affinity) are used to design double and higher-order mutants in subsequent rounds of design, avoiding the combinatorial explosion that arises from random mutagenesis. Typically, with a total of about 30-50 designed single, double, and triple mutants, affinity improvements of 10- to 100-fold are obtained.
