Local radiation enhances systemic CAR T-cell efficacy by augmenting antigen crosspresentation and T-cell infiltration.

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.
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
abstractChimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy targeting CD19 (CART-19) represents a significant advance in the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory CD19+ B-cell lymphomas. However, a significant portion of patients either relapse or fail to respond. Moreover, many patients have symptomatic disease, requiring bridging radiation therapy (RT) during the period of CAR T-cell manufacturing. To investigate the impact of 1 to 2 fractions of low-dose RT on CART-19 treatment response, we developed a mouse model using A20 lymphoma cells for CART-19 therapy. We found that low-dose fractionated RT had a positive effect on generating abscopal systemic antitumor responses beyond the irradiated site. The combination of RT with CART-19 therapy resulted in additive effects on tumor growth in irradiated masses. Notably, a significant additional increase in antitumor effect was observed in nonirradiated tumors. Mechanistically, our results validate activation of the cyclic guanosine adenosine synthetase/stimulator of interferon genes pathway, tumor-associated antigen crosspriming, and elicitation of epitope spreading. Collectively, our findings suggest that RT may serve as an optimal priming and bridging modality for CAR T-cell therapy, overcoming treatment resistance and improving clinical outcomes in patients with CD19+ hematologic malignancies.
