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

Oncolytic viruses have been considered promising cancer immunotherapies. However, oncovirotherapy agents impart durable responses in only a subset of cancer patients. Thus, exploring the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying the heterogeneous responses in patients can provide guidance to develop more effective oncolytic virus therapies. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) analysis of tumors responsive and non-responsive to oncovirotherapy revealed signatures of the tumor immune microenvironment associated with immune response. Thus, we designed and constructed an armed oncolytic virus, OV-5A, that expressed five genes with non-redundant functions. OV-5A treatment exhibits robust immune response against various tumors in multiple mouse models, peripheral blood mononuclear cell -patient-derived xenograft models, organoid-immune cell co-culture systems, and patient tissue sections by activating a cooperative innate-adaptive immune response against tumor cells. scRNA-seq analysis of complete responders and partial responders to OV-5A treatment guided the design of combination therapy of OV-5A. This data-driven approach paves an innovative way to rationalize the design of oncolytic virus and multi-agent combination therapies.
