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

Background: HER2-positive cancers present challenges of drug resistance, toxicity, and immune tolerance. HER2-targeted peptide vaccines have failed clinically, while nucleoside-modified mRNA-lipid nanoparticle (mRNA-LNP) vaccines show promise for robust antitumor immunity. This study utilized heterologous immunity (rat HER2 extracellular domain, rHER2 ECD) to circumvent HER2 tolerance, developing a safe mRNA-LNP vaccine and exploring its synergy with anti-PD-1 therapy. Methods: We synthesized N1-methyl-pseudouridine (m1ψ)-modified mRNAs, encoding either rHER2 ECD alone (rHER2 ECD mRNA-LNP) or rHER2 ECD fused to murine IFNγ (rHER2 ECD-IFNγ mRNA-LNP), and then encapsulated them in LNPs via microfluidic mixing. BALB/c mice were immunized on days 1, 15, 29, then challenged with HER2-overexpressing 4T1 (4T1-HER2) cells 2 weeks post-final immunization. Efficacy was assessed by tumor growth, immune responses via flow cytometry, ELISA, ELISpot and cytotoxicity assays, safety via body/organ weight and serum markers. Results: HER2 ECD mRNA-LNPs exhibited >80% encapsulation efficiency and narrow particle size distribution. As monotherapy, rHER2 ECD mRNA-LNPs induced high anti-HER2 antibody titers, polyfunctional CD8 Conclusion: The rHER2 ECD mRNA-LNP effectively circumvents HER2-specific immune tolerance. As a potent and safe platform, it induces robust coordinated humoral and cellular immunity and significantly enhances checkpoint blockade efficacy via the enrichment of T
