Hybrid Mass Spectrometry Applied across the Production of Antibody Biotherapeutics.
Article in Journal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Post expression from the host cells, biotherapeutics undergo downstream processing steps before final formulation. Mass spectrometry and biophysical characterization methods are valuable for examining conformational and stoichiometric changes at these stages, although typically not used in biomanufacturing, where stability is assessed via bulk property studies. Here we apply hybrid MS methods to understand how solution condition changes impact the structural integrity of a biopharmaceutical across the processing pipeline. As an exemplar product, we use the model IgG1 antibody, mAb4. Flexibility, stability, aggregation propensity, and bulk properties are evaluated in relation to perfusion media, purification stages, and formulation solutions. Comparisons with Herceptin, an extensively studied IgG1 antibody, were conducted in a mass spectrometry-compatible solution. Despite presenting similar charge state distributions (CSD) in native MS, mAb4, and Herceptin show distinct unfolding patterns in activated ion mobility mass spectrometry (aIM-MS) and differential scanning fluorimetry (DSF). Herceptin's greater structural stability and aggregation onset temperature (
