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.

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.

Abstract

backgroundSAR445419 is an investigational, off-the-shelf, allogeneic NK cell therapy derived from donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells and expanded ex vivo using PM21 particles.

methodsThis multicenter, Phase 1, dose-escalation study (NCT05712278) evaluated optimal dose(s), safety, and tolerability of SAR445419 in adults (aged ≥ 18 years) with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML). Following lymphodepleting chemotherapy (fludarabine 30 mg/m

resultsOf the 12 planned participants, 7 patients were enrolled, of whom 6 received SAR445419 before sponsor decided early study termination for reasons unrelated to safety or efficacy. No DLTs were observed. All participants experienced treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs); six had grade ≥ 3 TEAEs; and four had serious adverse events (SAEs). Two SAR445419-related SAEs (infusion-related reactions: both grade 2) were managed with supportive care. All participants experienced grade 3 anemia and grade 4 thrombocytopenia and neutropenia. Five deaths were reported, all due to disease progression, none related to SAR445419. No clinical responses were observed.

conclusionsThis study demonstrated the overall safety of off-the-shelf ex vivo expanded allogeneic NK cells in patients with R/R AML. The successful manufacturing and distribution support the feasibility of donor-derived off-the-shelf NK cells in a clinical setting. Further investigations are required to improve the clinical efficiency of NK cells.
