Improved pharmacokinetics of HIV-neutralizing VRC01-class antibodies achieved by reduction of net positive charge on variable domain.
Article in mAbs. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
The amino-acid composition of the immunoglobulin variable region has been observed to impact antibody pharmacokinetics (PK). Here, we sought to improve the PK of the broad HIV-1-neutralizing VRC01-class antibodies, VRC07-523LS and N6LS, by reducing the net positive charge in their variable domains. We used a structure-guided approach to generate a panel of antibody variants incorporating select Arg or Lys substituted to Asp, Gln, Glu, or Ser. The engineered variants exhibited reduced affinity to heparin, reduced polyreactivity, and improved PK in human FcRn-transgenic mice. One variant, VRC07-523LS.v34, with three charge substitutions, had an observed
