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

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cell therapy has shown remarkable success in treating various leukemias and lymphomas. Cellular kinetic (CK) and pharmacodynamic (PD) behavior of CAR T cell therapy is distinct from other therapies due to its living nature. CAR T CK is typically characterized by an exponential expansion driven by target binding, fast initial decline (contraction), and slow long-term decline (persistence). Due to the dependence of CK on target binding, CK and PD of CAR T therapies are inherently and bidirectionally linked. In this work, we develop a semi-mechanistic model of CAR T CK/PD, incorporating molecular-scale binding, T cell dynamics with multiple phenotypes, and tumor growth and killing. We calibrate this model to published CK and PD data for a CD19-targeting CAR T cell therapy. Using sensitivity analysis, we explore variability in response due to patient- and drug-specific properties. We further explore the impact of tumor characteristics on CAR T-cell expansion and efficacy through individual- and population-level parameter scans.
