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

backgroundStereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) induces immunogenic cell death, leading to subsequent antitumor immune response that is in part counterbalanced by activation of immune evasive processes, for example, upregulation of programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and adenosine generating enzyme, CD73. CD73 is upregulated in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) compared with normal pancreatic tissue and high expression of CD73 in PDACs is associated with increased tumor size, advanced stage, lymph node involvement, metastasis, PD-L1 expression and poor prognosis. Therefore, we hypothesized that blockade of both CD73 and PD-L1 in combination with SBRT might improve antitumor efficacy in an orthotopic murine PDAC model.

methodsWe assessed the combination of systemic blockade of CD73/PD-L1 and local SBRT on tumor growth in primary pancreatic tumors, and investigated systemic antitumor immunity using a metastatic murine model bearing both orthotopic primary pancreatic tumor and distal hepatic metastases. Immune response was quantified by flow cytometric and Luminex analyses.

resultsWe demonstrated that blockade of both CD73 and PD-L1 significantly amplified the antitumor effect of SBRT, leading to superior survival. The triple therapy (SBRT+anti-CD73+anti-PD-L1) modulated tumor-infiltrating immune cells with increases of interferon-γ
