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

TGF-β is widely existed in tumor microenvironment, taking part in tumorigenesis process including angiogenesis, cancer associated fibroblast (CAF) proliferation, and immunosuppression. It inhibited the activation, proliferation, migration and differentiation of T cells, in which way caused a limited therapeutic effects of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) towards solid tumor such as lymphoma. To targeted block TGF-β at tumor site, we take advantages of nano-techniques to deliver TGF-β inhibitors LY2157299 (LY) towards the tumor sites, in order to help achieve a improved and long-term functions of CAR-T towards lymphoma. Based on amphipathic hydroxyethyl starch-polycaprolactone (HES-PCL), LY and photosensitizer indocyanine green (ICG) were co-loaded in HES-PCL to achieve LY/ICG@HES-PCL nanoparticle. The enhanced function of CAR-T benefited from LY/ICG@HES-PCL were verified through lymphoma Raji cells in vitro and Nod scid gamma mice engrafted with the Raji cells in vivo. LY was targeted transported to tumor site and accelerated release by mild ICG photothermal. Chemokines CXCL9/10/11 ​at the tumor site relevant to CAR-T migration and chemokines receptor CXCR3 of CAR-T could be up-regulated by LY, thus facilitated the enhanced accumulation of CAR-T at lymphoma site. T effector memory cells differentiation could also be accelerated by LY/ICG@HES-PCL. Combined therapy of LY/ICG@HES-PCL and CAR-T achieved 2.4 times higher antitumor activity and 2.7 times higher relapse inhibiting rates than CAR-T alone within 15 days and 11 days, respectively. The results suggested that LY/ICG@HES-PCL facilitated the enhanced therapeutic index of CAR-T cells towards lymphoma simply and safely, it may be further potentiated applied for other solid tumors.
