Construction of bispecific antibodies by specific pairing between the heavy chain and the light chain using removable SpyCatcher/SnoopCatcher units.
Article in Journal of biological engineering, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
During the production of bispecific antibodies (bsAbs), nonspecific pairing results in low yields of target bsAb molecules, an issue known as the "mispairing problem." Several antibody engineering techniques have been developed to overcome mispairing issues. Here, we introduce "bsAb by external pairing and excision" (BAPE), a novel chain pairing method that induces specific chain pairing by fusing external SpyCatcher/Tag and SnoopCatcher/Tag units. These tags are then removed via protease cleavage. In this study, we applied this method to force the correct pairings of heavy and light chains while the heavy-chain pairing was achieved by the Knobs-into-Holes mutation. We then confirmed the formation of interchain bridges with covalent isopeptide bonds. Both anti-CD3/anti-Her2 and anti-CD3/anti-EGFR bsAbs displayed satisfactory target binding activities and in vitro cell-killing activity with activated T-cells.
