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

Ovarian cancer is especially deadly, challenging to treat, and has proven refractory to known immunotherapies. Cytokine therapy is an attractive strategy to drive a proinflammatory immune response in immunologically cold tumors such as many high grade ovarian cancers; however, this strategy has been limited in the past due to severe toxicity. We previously demonstrated the use of a layer-by-layer (LbL) nanoparticle (NP) delivery vehicle in subcutaneous flank tumors to reduce the toxicity of interleukin-12 (IL-12) therapy upon intratumoral injection. However, ovarian cancer cannot be treated by local injection as it presents as dispersed metastases. Herein, we demonstrate the use of systemically delivered LbL NPs using a cancer cell membrane-binding outer layer to effectively target and engage the adaptive immune system as a treatment in multiple orthotopic ovarian tumor models, including immunologically cold tumors. IL-12 therapy from systemically delivered LbL NPs shows reduced severe toxicity and maintained anti-tumor efficacy compared to carrier-free IL-12 or layer-free liposomal NPs leading to a 30% complete survival rate.
