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

Prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) is highly and preferentially expressed on the surface of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) cells, raising the promise of tumor-selective cell-based immunotherapies. In this issue of the JCI, Dai et al. harness PSCA for the development of an off-the-shelf chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell-based treatment for PDAC. Through in vitro experiments and in vivo models, the authors demonstrate selectivity and therapeutic efficacy of PSCA CAR_sIL15 iNKT cells against both gemcitabine-sensitive and -resistant PDAC cells with comparable antitumor activity for freshly produced and frozen off-the-shelf PSCA CAR_sIL15 iNKT cells. This development opens another potential therapeutic option for pancreatic cancer.
