Noninvasive longitudinal PET/CT imaging of CAR T cells using PSMA reporter gene.
Article in European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
purposeChimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy has achieved great success in treating hematologic malignancies. However, it is yet to prove effective in the treatment of solid tumors. Thus, it is necessary to develop appropriate methodology for the long-term, accurate, and quantitative evaluation of the distribution and activities of CAR T cells in solid tumors. In the present study, we engineered TfR ΔPSMA CAR (CAR-ΔPSMA) T cells, which targeted the transferrin receptor (TfR) expressed by tumor cells and could be tracked in vivo via a reporter gene encoding the truncated prostate specific membrane antigen (ΔPSMA). We then quantitatively monitored these CAR T cells in vitro and in vivo using [
methodsThe CAR-ΔPSMA T cells were genetically engineered by transducing T cells with a lentiviral vector encoding TfR41BBζ-T2A-ΔPSMA. Firstly, the target expression, activation, and cytotoxicity of CAR-ΔPSMA T cells were validated in vitro. Secondly, the minimum thresholds of CAR-ΔPSMA T cells detection for [
resultsThe CAR-ΔPSMA T cells retained activation and tumor killing capacity after transduction of the ΔPSMA-encoding reporter gene. Next, the CAR-ΔPSMA T cells could be reliably tracked by [
conclusionOur findings preliminarily confirmed that [
