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

Personalized cancer vaccines represent a revolutionary frontier in oncology, harnessing the unique genetic and molecular profile of individual tumors to elicit targeted immune responses. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape and future perspectives of neoantigen-based personalized cancer vaccines, encompassing peptide, mRNA, DNA, autologous dendritic cell, and viral or bacterial vector platforms. We further discuss the integration of immune adjuvants, delivery systems, and combinational strategies, particularly with immune checkpoint inhibitions, to overcome tumor-induced immune exhaustion and improve therapeutic efficacy. Despite significant clinical progress over the past decade in this space, major challenges remain in immunogenic neoantigens prediction, streamlining individualized vaccine manufacturing, and optimization of combinational regimens to maximize durable antitumor responses. By reviewing recent preclinical and clinical studies on neoantigen-based cancer vaccines, this review highlights key advances, identifies persistent translational bottlenecks, and underscores the need for biomarker-guided mechanistically informed trials to fully unleash the clinical potential of neoantigen-based personalized cancer vaccines in the era of precision immuno-oncology.
