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

Anc80L65 is a synthetic, ancestral adeno-associated virus that has high tropism toward retinal photoreceptors after subretinal injection in mice and non-human primates. We characterized, for the first time, the post-intravitreal cell-specific transduction profile of Anc80L65 compared with AAV9. Here we use Anc80L65 and AAV9 to intravitreally deliver a copy of the gene encoding GFP into WT C57Bl/6J mice. GFP expression was driven by one of two clinically relevant promoters, chicken β actin (CB) or truncated MECP2 (P546). After qualitative assessment of relative GFP expression, we found Anc80L65 and AAV9 to have similar transduction profiles. Through the development of a novel method for quantifying GFP-positive retinal cells, we found Anc80L65 to have higher tropism in Müller glia and AAV9 to have higher tropism in horizontal cells. In addition, we found P546 to promote GFP expression at a more moderate level compared with the high levels seen under the CB promoter. Finally, for the first time, we characterized Anc80L65 cross-reactivity in human sera; 83% of patients with AAV2 pre-existing antibodies were found to be seropositive for Anc80L65. This study demonstrates the expanded therapeutic applications of Anc80L65 to treat retinal disease and provides the first insights to Anc80L65 pre-existing immunity in humans.
