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

IgG-based therapeutic antibodies are increasingly adopted for diverse human diseases, such as cancer and autoimmune disorders displaying remarkable therapeutic performance. A key factor in their success lies in the extended half-life of IgG molecules, which is regulated by the pH-dependent interaction between IgG and neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn). This interaction prevents lysosomal degradation of IgG. Despite the frequent use of humanized rodent models expressing human FcRn (hFcRn) in preclinical studies, these models often fail to accurately replicate human antibody pharmacokinetics (PK) due to the use of non-native promoters that influence FcRn expression. To overcome this limitation, we developed an innovative humanized FcRn knock-in (hiFcRn) mouse model using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. This model integrates hFcRn cDNA into the endogenous locus of the mouse Fcgrt gene, completely replacing native mouse FcRn (mFcRn) expression. The hiFcRn mouse model offers a more human-relevant platform for the preclinical evaluation of therapeutic antibodies and Fc-fusion proteins.
