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

backgroundWhereas chimeric antigen receptor gene modified T (CAR-T) cell therapy has been clinically applied to malignant lymphomas and multiple myeloma, CAR-T cell therapy for solid tumors has so far not reached clinical application. Epithelial V-like antigen 1 (Eva1), transcribed from

methodWe prepared various humanized single chain variable fragment sequences based on a mouse anti-human Eva1 monoclonal antibody. We constructed six humanized Eva1CAR-Ts and selected one that maintained specificity and good cellular proliferation after antigen stimulation. We further optimized the length of the extracellular spacer domain and the choice of the intracellular domain in vitro and in two different xenograft mouse models.

resultsWe confirmed Eva1 expression on various tumor cell lines by flow cytometry and analysis of public database, but we also observed that normal monocytes weakly expressed Eva1. A combination of short spacer domain and 4-1BB or CD79A/CD40 intracellular domain provided higher treatment efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. The cytokine release on autologous monocyte stimulation to Eva1CAR-T cells was comparable to that on autologous B cell stimulation to CD19CAR-T cells. Humanized Eva1CAR-T cells demonstrated excellent therapeutic efficacy by infusing a single dose of Eva1CAR-T cells (1×10

conclusionsIn summary, these data suggest that humanized Eva1CAR-T has promising therapeutic potential for the treatment of various Eva1-positive solid tumors. Regarding on-target/off-tumor recognition, further detailed analyses of the Eva1CAR-T cell responses to normal tissues are needed.
