High baseline PD-1+ CD8 T Cells and TIGIT+ CD8 T Cells in circulation associated with response to PD-1 blockade in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
Article in Cancer immunology, immunotherapy : CII, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
Blockade of PD-1 or its ligand PD-L1 with antibodies revolutionized treatment for stage III and IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) since FDA approval in 2015. However, resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade remains a challenge, highlighting the need for biomarkers. This study analyzed 36 stage III and IV NSCLC patients, classified as responders or non-responders by iRECIST criteria. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells collected at baseline and post-treatment were examined for surface and intracellular markers via flow cytometry. CITE sequencing of CD8 T cells from three patients and plasma ctDNA analysis from 13 patients was performed using an ultrasensitive barcoding and next-generation sequencing method. Phenotypic analysis of CD8 T cells revealed higher TIGIT and PD-1 expression at baseline in responders compared to non-responders. Long-term responders (> 21 months) exhibited increased TCF-1
