Exploiting viral infection/vaccination to focus high-affinity T cell populations into tumors using oncolytic viro-immunotherapy.
Article in Molecular therapy : the journal of the American Society of Gene Therapy, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Immune tolerance restricts the number of T cells with significant affinity for self-tumor-associated antigens (TAAs), thereby limiting successful cancer immunotherapy through an inability to generate populations of high-affinity anti-tumor T cells. In contrast, viral infection/vaccination primes and expands high-affinity effector and memory T cells against viral antigens. We show here that it is possible to exploit population-wide preexisting, anti-viral memory recall responses against SARS-CoV-2 antigens to focus a high-affinity, immunodominant T cell response into tumors by oncolytic virus (OV)-mediated or chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-mediated delivery of viral antigens that are not themselves related to TAAs. Heterologous prime and OV/boost led to CD8
