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

Delta-like ligand 3 (DLL3) is overexpressed in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and has been considered an attractive target for SCLC therapy. Rovalpituzumab tesirine was the first DLL3-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) to enter clinical studies. However, serious adverse events limited progress in the treatment of SCLC with rovalpituzumab tesirine. In this study, we developed a novel DLL3-targeted ADC, FZ-AD005, by using DXd with potent cytotoxicity and a relatively better safety profile to maximize the therapeutic index. FZ-AD005 was generated by a novel anti-DLL3 antibody, FZ-A038, and a valine-alanine (Val-Ala) dipeptide linker to conjugate DXd. Moreover, Fc-silencing technology was introduced in FZ-AD005 to avoid off-target toxicity mediated by FcγRs and showed negligible Fc-mediated effector functions in vitro. In preclinical evaluation, FZ-AD005 exhibited DLL3-specific binding and demonstrated efficient internalization, bystander killing, and excellent in vivo antitumor activities in cell line-derived xenograft and patient-derived xenograft models. FZ-AD005 was stable in circulation with acceptable pharmacokinetic profiles in cynomolgus monkeys. FZ-AD005 was well tolerated in rats and monkeys. The safety profile of FZ-AD005 was favorable, and the highest nonseverely toxic dose was 30 mg/kg in cynomolgus monkeys. In conclusion, FZ-AD005 has the potential to be a superior DLL3-targeted ADC with a wide therapeutic window and is expected to provide clinical benefits for the treatment of patients with SCLC.
