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

abstractCD70 has emerged as a promising target in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and we have previously demonstrated the potency of an optimized CD70-targeted ligand-based chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). However, here, we identify in vivo CD70 antigen escape as a limitation of single-antigen targeting. Combination targeting of CD70 and CD33 may overcome AML antigen heterogeneity. We hypothesized that modifying our CD70 CAR platform to secrete a bispecific T-cell engaging antibody molecule (TEAM) targeting CD33 (7033) would create a therapeutic window whereby AML heterogeneity could be addressed without increasing tissue toxicity. We found that CD33 TEAMs mediated specific cytotoxicity across AML cell lines, including CD33 or CD70 single-antigen knockout tumors. 7033 CAR T cells eradicated tumor in an in vivo mixed tumor model of CD70 antigen escape and outperformed the previously optimized CD70 CAR in a patient-derived xenograft. In vivo gene expression profiling of CAR T cells revealed enhanced 7033 CAR T-cell pathway scoring for persistence, activation, and T-cell receptor signaling. Additionally, CD33 TEAMs successfully redirected T cells isolated from patients with AML to activate, secrete cytokines, and kill tumor targets despite exposure to substantial prior cytotoxic therapies. In summary, our findings demonstrate the feasibility of our 7033 CAR to overcome AML heterogeneity and leverage the bystander T cells of patients; this approach warrants further study in patients with this dire clinical need.
