Potentiating intratumoral therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors: shifting the paradigm of multimodality therapeutics.
Review in Immuno-oncology technology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have revolutionized oncology, yielding remarkable and durable responses in various cancers. However, a significant proportion of patients develop resistance to ICIs. The tumor microenvironment plays a critical role in immunotherapy resistance, characterized by immune cell composition, regulatory factors, and tumor mutational burden. Intratumoral immunotherapy, involving direct injection of immune-activating agents into tumors, holds promise for converting immunologically 'cold' tumors into responsive 'hot' tumors. This review explores the rationale for combining intratumoral therapies (ITs) with ICIs, highlighting their complementary mechanisms of action and clinical effects. Notable IT approaches include oncolytic viruses, toll-like receptor agonists, and stimulator of interferon gene agonists with ICIs. Overall, combining ITs with ICIs offers a rational strategy to potentiate antitumor immune response and overcome resistance. Further research is needed to optimize the combination strategies, identify biomarkers of response, and establish the safety and efficacy of these novel therapeutic approaches.
