PD-1 blockade treatment in melanoma: Mechanism of response and tumor-intrinsic resistance.
Review in Cancer science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Malignant melanoma is characterized by high immunogenicity, genetic heterogeneity, and diverse pathological manifestations, affecting both skin and mucosa over the body. Pembrolizumab and nivolumab, both anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibodies, were approved by the US FDA for unresectable or metastatic melanoma in 2011 and 2014, respectively, with enduring and transformative outcomes. Despite marked clinical achievements, only a subset of patients manifested a complete response. Approximately 55% of melanoma patients exhibited primary resistance to PD-1 antibodies, with nearly 25% developing secondary resistance within 2 years of treatment. Thus, there is a critical need to comprehensively elucidate the mechanisms underlying the efficacy and resistance to PD-1 blockade. This review discusses the fundamental mechanisms of PD-1 blockade, encompassing insights from T cells and B cells, and presents resistance to anti-PD-1 with a particular focus on tumoral-intrinsic mechanisms in melanoma.
