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

backgroundApheresis procedure of autologous lymphocytes competent for proliferation and expansion is a crucial step in the production of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells. Previous therapies or disease status prior to collection may negatively impact the collections. STUDY DESIGN AND

methodsWe performed a retrospective analysis with the aim to determine cellular factors in association with the collection of autologous T-cells and subsequent CAR T manufacturing toward tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel). Between February 2019 and February 2022, 63 collections of 54 patients were performed for subsequent therapy with tisa-cel.

resultsWe observed no difference in median CD3+ cell yields according to the number of prior therapy lines (>3 vs. ≤3, p = .335), prior treatment with bendamustine (p = .954) or marrow infiltration (p = .634). Fifty-six collections were sent for manufacturing, of which 22 (39%) resulted in manufacturing failures, namely terminations (n = 12) or out-of-specification events (n = 10). Collections resulting in manufacturing failures yielded significantly lower CD3+ (p = .005), CD3+CD4+ (p = .044), and non-senescent CD3+CD27+CD28+ (p = .003) counts. Multivariable analysis identified the absolute number of CD3+CD27+CD28+ cells as relevant, with a calculated cut-off of ≥34.58 × 10 DISCUSSION: In summary, we report a positive influence of a higher number of non-senescent Τ-cells on successful manufacturing. Further analyses are required to determine measures for further optimization of collection outcomes.
