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

A cocktail of human monoclonal antibodies 1C3 and 1C11 previously protected macaques from a lethal exposure to either Ebola virus (EBOV) or Sudan virus (SUDV). 1C3 is of particular interest because its paratope strongly binds with unique stoichiometry to the glycoprotein head of several orthoebolaviruses, resulting in neutralization of EBOV and SUDV. Therefore, we evaluated the protective activity of 1C3 as a standalone therapeutic in macaques exposed to either EBOV or SUDV. Two doses of 1C3 monotherapy, administered 4 and 7 days post-exposure, did not protect SUDV-exposed macaques and partially protected EBOV-exposed macaques. Notably, in a macaque that succumbed to EBOV infection, we identified two mutually exclusive escape mutations that emerged immediately after the first dose and resulted in two amino acid changes at the 1C3 binding site. We also detected a subconsensus treatment-emergent mutation likely affecting the 1C3 binding site in all three deceased SUDV-exposed macaques. Our findings highlight combination treatment with 1C11 as critical for protection, particularly against SUDV, and IMPORTANCE: A cocktail of human monoclonal antibodies 1C3 and 1C11 previously protected macaques exposed to a lethal dose of either Ebola virus (EBOV) or Sudan virus (SUDV). Since the unique binding characteristics of 1C3 are of particular interest, we evaluated its protective activity as monotherapy in macaques exposed to either EBOV or SUDV. Two doses of 1C3 alone did not protect SUDV-exposed macaques and only partially protected EBOV-exposed macaques. Importantly, failure to protect was associated with the rapid emergence of previously
