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

Kirsten Rat Sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS) is one of the most frequent oncogenes. However, there are limited treatment options due to its intracellular expression. To address this, we developed a novel bispecific T-cell engager (BiTE) antibody targeting HLA-A2/KRAS G12V complex and CD3 (HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE). We examined its specific binding to tumor cells and T cells, as well as its anti-tumor effects in vivo. HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE was expressed in Escherichia coli and its binding affinities to CD3 and HLA-A2/KRAS G12V were measured by flow cytometry, along with T-cell activation. In a xenograft pancreatic tumor model, the HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE's anti-tumor effects were assessed through tumor growth, survival time, and safety. Our results demonstrated specific binding of HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE to tumor cells with an HLA-A2/KRAS G12V mutation and T cells. The HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE also activated T-cells in the presence of tumor cells in vitro. HLA-G12V/CD3 BiTE in vivo testing showed delayed tumor growth without severe toxicity to major organs and prolonged mouse survival. This study highlights the potential of constructing BiTEs recognizing an HLA-peptide complex and providing a novel therapy for cancer treatment targeting the intracellular tumor antigen.
