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

backgroundDendritic cell (DC) vaccines for cancer therapy offer the possibility to let the patient's own immune system kill cancer cells. However, DC vaccines have shown less efficacy than expected due to failure to induce cancer cell killing and by activating T regulatory cells.

methodsWe tested if inhibition of signalling via WASp and Arp2/3 using the small molecule CK666 would enhance DC-mediated killing of tumour cells in vitro and in vivo.

resultsUsing CK666 during the ex vivo phase of antigen processing of ovalbumin (OVA), murine and human DCs showed decreased phagosomal acidification, indicating activation of the cross-presentation pathway. When compared to untreated DCs, DCs treated with CK666 during uptake and processing of OVA-induced increased proliferation of OVA-specific CD8

conclusionOur data suggest that the small molecule inhibitor CK666 is a good candidate to enhance DC cross-presentation for cancer therapy.
