Mechanistic modelling of tyrosine recombination reveals key parameters determining the performance of a CAR T cell switching circuit.

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
Inducible genetic switches based on tyrosine recombinase-based DNA excision are a promising platform for the regulation and control of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell activity in cancer immunotherapy. These switches exploit the increased stability of DNA excision in tyrosine recombinases through an inversion-excision circuit design. Here, the authors develop the first mechanistic mathematical model of switching dynamics in tyrosine recombinases and validate it against experimental data through both global optimisation and statistical approximation approaches. Analysis of this model provides guidelines regarding which system parameters are best suited to experimental tuning in order to establish optimal switch performance in vivo. In particular, they find that the switching response can be made significantly faster by increasing the concentration of the inducer drug 4-OHT and/or by using promoters generating higher expression levels of the FlpO recombinase.
