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

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) can reinvigorate T cells to eradicate tumor cells, showing great potential in combating various types of tumors. We propose a delivery strategy to enhance tumor-selective ICI accumulation, which leverages the responsiveness of platelets and platelet-derivatives to coagulation cascade signals. A fused protein tTF-RGD targets tumor angiogenic blood vessel endothelial cells and initiates the coagulation locoregionally at the tumor site, forming a "cellular hive" to recruit anti-PD-1 antibody (aPD-1)-conjugated platelets to the tumor site and subsequently activating platelets to release aPD-1 antibody to reactivate T cells for improved immunotherapy. Moreover, on a patient-derived xenograft breast cancer model, the platelet membrane-coated nanoparticles can also respond to the coagulation signals initiated by tTF-RGD, thus enhancing the accumulation and antitumor efficacy of the loaded chemotherapeutics. Our study illustrates a versatile platform technology to enhance the local accumulation of ICIs and chemodrugs by taking advantage of the responsiveness of platelets and platelet derivatives to thrombosis.
