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

Immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) causes durable tumour responses in a subgroup of patients, but it is not well known how T cell receptor beta (TCRβ) repertoire dynamics contribute to the therapeutic response. Using murine models that exclude variation in host genetics, environmental factors and tumour mutation burden, limiting variation between animals to naturally diverse TCRβ repertoires, we applied TCRseq, single cell RNAseq and flow cytometry to study TCRβ repertoire dynamics in ICT responders and non-responders. Increased oligoclonal expansion of TCRβ clonotypes was observed in responding tumours. Machine learning identified TCRβ CDR3 signatures unique to each tumour model, and signatures associated with ICT response at various timepoints before or during ICT. Clonally expanded CD8+ T cells in responding tumours post ICT displayed effector T cell gene signatures and phenotype. An early burst of clonal expansion during ICT is associated with response, and we report unique dynamics in TCRβ signatures associated with ICT response.
