Engineering anti-BCMA CAR T cells for enhancing myeloma killing efficacy via apoptosis regulation.
Article in Nature communications, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Clinical responses with chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells are encouraging, but primary resistance and relapse after therapy prevent durable remission in many patients with cancer, with apoptosis resistance in cancer cells that limits killing by CAR T cells being a potential cause. Here we aim to boost tumor cell apoptosis induced by CAR T cells and find that anti-B cell maturation antigen (BCMA) CAR T cells over-expressing a granzyme B-NOXA fusion protein show improved killing of multiple myeloma (MM) cells in vitro and in xenograft mouse models in vivo. Mechanistically, such an enhancement is mediated by localizing NOXA to cytotoxic granules that are released into cancer cells upon contact. In MM cells, inhibition of MCL-1, an anti-apoptotic factor, by its natural ligand NOXA effectively induces apoptosis. Our data thus show that endowing granzyme B-NOXA expression to CAR T cells improves their killing efficacy, thereby presenting a potential generalizable enhancement for CAR T-mediated anti-cancer immunity.
