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

backgroundGenerally, early-stage breast cancer has a good prognosis. However, if it spreads systemically, especially with pulmonary involvement, prospects worsen dramatically. Importantly, tumor-infiltrating T cells contribute to tumor control, particularly intratumoral T cells with a tissue-resident memory phenotype are associated with an improved clinical outcome.

methodsHere, we use an adenoviral vector vaccine encoding endogenous tumor-associated antigens adjuvanted with interleukin-1β to induce tumor-specific tissue-resident memory T cells (TRM) in the lung for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary metastases in the murine 4T1 breast cancer model.

resultsThe mucosal delivery of the vaccine was highly efficient in establishing tumor-specific TRM in the lung. Concomitantly, a single mucosal vaccination reduced the growth of pulmonary metastases and improved the survival in a prophylactic treatment. Vaccine-induced TRM contributed to these protective effects. In a therapeutic setting, the vaccination induced a pronounced T cell infiltration into metastases but resulted in only a minor restriction of the disease progression. However, in combination with stereotactic radiotherapy, the vaccine increased the survival time and rate of tumor-bearing mice.

conclusionIn summary, our study demonstrates that mucosal vaccination is a promising strategy to harness the power of antitumor TRM and its potential combination with state-of-the-art treatments.
