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

Anchored immunotherapy is a novel approach for retaining drugs within the tumour microenvironment. Tolododekin alfa is a first-in-class anchored Interleukin 12 (IL-12) linked to aluminum hydroxide. Safety and biological activity were evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial in patients with accessible advanced solid tumours in Part 1 of a 3-part trial. The primary objectives are safety and tolerability as well as determination of the recommended dose for expansion (RDE). Secondary objectives include pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, preliminary antitumour activity, and immunogenicity. Exploratory analyses include serum and tissue biomarkers. Fifteen patients were enrolled at escalating doses of tolododekin alfa given by injection every 3 weeks. There were no dose-limiting toxicities or treatment-related serious adverse events. PK/Pharmacodynamic measurements demonstrate retention of drug in the tumour. Biological activity demonstrates increased CD8
