Enhanced antitumor activity of a novel, oral, helper epitope-containing WT1 protein vaccine in a model of murine leukemia.
Article in BMC cancer, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundA Wilms' tumor 1 (WT1) oral vaccine, Bifidobacterium longum (B. longum) 420, in which the bacterium is used as a vector for WT1 protein, triggers immune responses through cellular immunity consisting of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and other immunocompetent cells (e.g., helper T cells). We developed a novel, oral, helper epitope-containing WT1 protein vaccine (B. longum 2656) to examine whether or not B. longum 420/2656 combination further accelerates the CD4
methodsC1498-murine WT1-a genetically-engineered, murine leukemia cell line to express murine WT1-was used as tumor cell. Female C57BL/6 J mice were allocated to the B. longum 420, 2656, and 420/2656 combination groups. The day of subcutaneous inoculation of tumor cells was considered as day 0, and successful engraftment was verified on day 7. The oral administration of the vaccine by gavage was initiated on day 8. Tumor volume, the frequency and phenotypes of WT1-specific CTLs in CD8
resultsTumor volume was significantly smaller (p < 0.01) in the B. longum 420/2656 combination group than in the B. longum 420 group on day 24. WT1-specific CTL frequency in CD8
conclusionsB. longum 420/2656 combination further accelerated antitumor activity that relies on WT1-specific CTLs in the tumor compared with B. longum 420.
