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

Synergistic combinations of immunotherapeutic agents can improve the performance of anti-cancer therapies but may lead to immune-mediated adverse effects. These side-effects can be overcome by using a tumor-specific delivery system. Here, we report a method of targeted immunotherapy using an attenuated Salmonella typhimurium (SAM-FC) engineered to release dual payloads: cytolysin A (ClyA), a cytolytic anti-cancer agent, and Vibrio vulnificus flagellin B (FlaB), a potent inducer of anti-tumor innate immunity. Localized secretion of ClyA from SAM-FC induces immunogenic cancer cell death and promotes release of tumor-specific antigens and damage-associated molecular patterns, which establish long-term antitumor memory. Localized secretion of FlaB promotes phenotypic and functional remodeling of intratumoral macrophages that markedly inhibits tumor metastasis in mice bearing tumors of mouse and human origin. Both primary and metastatic tumors from bacteria-treated female mice are characterized by massive infiltration of anti-tumorigenic innate immune cells and activated tumor-specific effector/memory T cells; however, the percentage of immunosuppressive cells is low. Here, we show that SAM-FC induces functional reprogramming of the tumor immune microenvironment by activating both the innate and adaptive arms of the immune system and can be used for targeted delivery of multiple immunotherapeutic payloads for the establishment of potent and long-lasting antitumor immunity.
